Convention - Day 4

Sunday, September 9, 2007, was the last day of our church convention in Madisonville, Kentucky. My "gems" from the meetings today are listed below:

• God is pleased with those sacrifices that come from thankfulness and love.
• Our hope today is based on the fact that Jesus rose from the dead.
• What we have in Christ is not because we are worthy, it's because Jesus was worthy.
• Impossible things can be done with God's power.
• God's people are like pillars... the more weight, then the more secure the pillar is in its place.
• If we're failing, we're not spending enough time at the throne of grace.
• Don't be too taken up with the prize, and not the way leading to it.
• Run the race in a way that you are an honor to the world.
