"…that God may open a door (Col. 4:3)"
Overcoming Overload
Wrong comparison corrupts contentment. Why are we happy with something right up until we discover that someone has something a little better?
Pressure. Busy-ness. Activities. Stress. More, more, more…to get ahead, to stay ahead, to keep up with everyone else. To get more stuff. What impact does it have on your life and your spiritual condition?
This is the fifth lesson in Mike’s series, Overcoming Overload, based on the book of the same name. Prayer (supplication) is simply the process of drawing near to God; the process of bringing our lives into harmony with his. Understanding the power of prayer – the power of connection to your Creator – is the foundation of living…
The whole idea of rest and finding a “sanctuary” in order to enjoy that rest runs very counter to our 24/7 culture. In this lesson, Mike talks about the need for God’s people to find solitude, silence, and stillness in their lives.
Today’s culture – the culture of “24/7” – leaves no room for rest. Does your life need some space? In this lesson, Mike teaches about “sabbath” and what relevance it has for you. God made the sabbath just for you, and Jesus consistently practiced the principle of “rest.”
Just the pace of life can be crushing. Activities. Responsibilities. Work. Kids. There are more and more and more things to do, but there seems to be less time to do them. In this lesson, Mike introduces the idea of “life overload” and details the three lies that Satan uses to manipulate our lives.
