Songs:

All Creatures by King's Kaleidoscope Just as I Am by The Modern Post (NEW) Like Incense/Sometimes by Step by Hillsong Be Thou My Vision by Ascend the Hill Come Thou Fount by King's Kaleidoscope

Sermon Tweets:

Mother’s Day is not enough to adequately show gratitude to moms for what they do.

Being a mom is too hard to rely on your own strength.

Jesus’ righteousness applies to all your performance, including your performance as a mom.

Your kids don’t need supermom, they need honest imperfect mom.

God is in control of your kid’s life so you don’t have to be.

Moms: you are free to be a daughter first and a mother second.

Moms need more than a Mother's Day card; they need to be reminded of the gospel.

Your kids need a savior, and that can’t be you.

Sermon Tweets:

Pain and suffering are mega-themes in the bible. http://ow.ly/weACs

One of the most shocking things in Scripture is how often God brings joy through suffering. http://ow.ly/weACs

Jesus was forsaken so that you and I would never have to be. http://ow.ly/weACs

We don't measure God's goodness by circumstances. We measure God's goodness by the cross. http://ow.ly/weACs

We may not be given individual answers to our suffering, but we are given a final answer. http://ow.ly/weACs

We don't always know the reasons why we suffer, but we know it's not because God doesn't care. http://ow.ly/weACs

Those that know and love Jesus will be healed–it's only a question of when. http://ow.ly/weACs

In this week's sermon, we focused on God's call for us to be laborers who plant, and trust him to cause growth in his kingdom. We spent much of the sermon doing what Jesus commands us to do, which is pray earnestly for him to send laborers into the harvest.
