Sunday Reflections and Discipleship Notes
June 3rd, 2009 Posted in Church at the Grove, Random ThoughtsBig Idea:
The greatest measure of success for any given generation is their effectiveness in passing the baton of truth and faith to the next generation.
Scripture Memory:
Titus 2:3-5 (NIV)
3 Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good.
4 Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children,
5 to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God.

Random Thoughts:
- Summer has hit! It feels so different on Sundays after school is out! Not bad, just different.
- I can’t emphasize enough how important it is for each of us to seek out people who can invest in us and counsel us on being godly individuals, husbands and wives, fathers and mothers, and growing leaders among our generation.
- No matter how bad it is and is becoming, you can “hang in there” and trust God.
- This was a good but crazy weekend!
- Thanks to Will Goodwin for his worship leadership! Pray for Allison and Ric while Alli is on complete bed-rest waiting another month, at least, for Isaac to be born.
- No more setup and breakdown for a couple of months! Yippee!
- I am praying for godly men and women to grow up in this generation and I hope and pray that Church at the Grove is leading the way.
- Amidst all of your summer vacationing, don’t miss what is happening this month with “One Prayer” that starts this Sunday!
- Let’s use the summer months to invest in relationships for the Kingdom!
See you Sunday!
