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.

Spiritual life is not found deep within–it's found in someone outside ourselves. http://ow.ly/wn4Vd

It is possible to be in relationship with God and not be enjoying Him. http://ow.ly/wn5y1

Your access to God is not based on the last time you read your bible. http://ow.ly/wsEmX

Abiding is constantly finding ways to enjoy God's grace. http://ow.ly/wn5Yc

If you are in Christ, the Father loves you like He loves Jesus. http://ow.ly/wn6cx

God's grace is opposed to earning, but it's not opposed to effort. http://ow.ly/wn6k4

The Bread of Life is available to us; all that's asked is that we pick it up and eat it. http://ow.ly/wn6Gn

We like the idea of justice, but don't tend to like it when God practices it. http://ow.ly/vqHCV #glorythieves

Jesus talks about hell more than any other biblical author. http://ow.ly/vqI3c #glorythieves

Heaven isn't a place for people who are scared of hell. It's a place for people who love God. http://ow.ly/vqIlA #glorythieves

Hell is the absence of all of God's goodness. http://ow.ly/vqIF9 #glorythieves

Hell is the conclusion of desiring life without God. http://ow.ly/vqJl4 #glorythieves

Hell shows us just how much God hates sin, and just how much He saved us from. http://ow.ly/vqJP1 #glorythieves
