Speaker: Jeff Hoenshell

Our mission at Harvest Bible Chapel is to make disciples in Fairfax. This is where God has called us to live and work. What is your part? How can you be a part of the mission here in northern Virginia? Pastor Jeff gives us 5 challenges from Colossians  to point us in the right direction to reach or friends and neighbors with the gospel of Jesus Christ. 

Psalm 103:2 says, “Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits.” Remembering who God is and what he has done is so important to the Christian because remembering stokes the fire of our hearts to worship God. 

Psalm 51 is the prayer of David after he is confronted with his sin. As we read and learn from his prayer of confession and repentance we find that we too, while grieving the sin in our life can find joy and freedom in God’s forgiveness.   

Psalm 1 and 2 compliment each other. In a way, they serve as an introduction to the book of Psalms as a whole. Psalms is more than a book of songs and prayers. It is instructive. We see that in these first two chapters as we learn how choosing godliness leads to worshipping the one true God. 

One of our 4 pillars at Harvest is “Unsahamed Adoration.” We want to lift high the name of Jesus in worship because he is worthy. In Psalm 122 we see that we have been given an invitation to worship the Lord. How are you going to answer that invitation?

How you talk to people sets the tone for your relationships. Our words can build up and tear down. This week we get into the Scriptures and see how God would have us talk to each other.

We are starting a new sermon series called, “Let’s Talk.” We want to learn how to talk to the most important people in our lives and that starts with God. One of our pillars at Harvest is “believing firmly in the power of prayer.” Lets look at Luke 18 to see what God would have us talk to Him. 

When you read old letters sent to a loved one you can read between the lines and get the context of what’s been happening. You can see the different event experienced, the emotions shared, and their desires. As we read Paul’s letter to the Thessalonian church it has been abundantly clear that Paul LOVES the people of this church. Do you love your church? Do you love the people of Harvest Bible Chapel Fairfax?

The word, establish, could be defined as, set up on a firm or permanent base. This is an important time for our church to be established in God’s Word. With God’s Word as our foundation we will remain unshaken.
