Discovering God’s Will

June 7, 2011 by Tim Sherfy

As I have frequently espoused on this blog, we already know what the will of God is for our lives; we need simply read the Scriptures. We’ve often looked at the parable of the sheep and the goats in Matthew 25 which gives a very clear, concise overview of the things we should be doing.

Discovering God's Will

The Bible is a large book, so I appreciate those sections that pack so much into a small portion of the text. However, we need to be careful and not simply stop with Matthew 25. Everything we need to know is revealed in God’s Word, so we do well to constantly survey the wisdom and instruction contained within its pages. [Read more…] about Discovering God’s Will

Do Great Things

June 2, 2011 by Tim Sherfy

Many of us get stuck thinking that our lives are insignificant and we don’t have the ability to make a difference in our world. We forget we have been created to do great work for Christ. The reason we know the work we do will be great is because it is done for the glory of God.

Do Great Things

Anything done in His name not only has eternal impact but it also means that we are fulfilling our destiny. Nearly everyone wants to live a life of significance, to leave a mark on the world. There is no better way to do this than by living out your purpose in life. [Read more…] about Do Great Things

Your Life’s Mission

May 22, 2011 by Tim Sherfy

Why are we here? What is God’s will for me? What should I do with my life? We’ve all asked some form of this question repeatedly throughout our lives. It wasn’t always this way in the church. There was a time when people knew exactly why they were here and what they were supposed to be doing with their time on the planet.

Target

There was no consternation as to which vocation to pursue. The early believers understood the message of Christ clearly, and it’s this very message that the church at large, and the Western church in particular, has so muddled over the past couple hundred years.

What Are You Waiting For?

May 17, 2011 by Tim Sherfy

Some people wait their entire lives for permission to do the thing they were created to do. They make excuses of being too young and then too old; too inexperienced and then overqualified. It seems like there are always a million reasons not to do the very thing we know we should be doing. Some wait to reach a certain level of financial security, while others convince themselves they don’t deserve to live the life of which they dream.

What Are You Waiting For

As followers of Christ, we have to understand that time is both finite and fleeting. We have been called to carry out the mission of Christ, yet we hesitate, waiting for a sign or the stars to align. In Matthew 28:19, Jesus said, “Go”. What are you waiting for? [Read more…] about What Are You Waiting For?

Born This Way

May 10, 2011 by Tim Sherfy

One of the greatest realizations you can have is that you were uniquely created with gifts and talents to continue the mission of Christ. Not only did He love you enough to die for you, but He also gifted you specifically to collaborate with Him in bringing the Kingdom of God to fruition.

Born This Way

So many wander through life discouraged because they believe themselves to be insignificant and without purpose; this is tragic and we need to be telling them how special they are in the eyes of God. [Read more…] about Born This Way
