40 Days with CHRIST

Give me a C!

February 18, 2024 • Pastor Tim Linick • Mark 6:30–34

We are here! We are on the brink of a very exciting work of God! Here at Lakewood Church, we have set aside the next 40 days for special emphasis on prayer, fasting, evangelism, calling, outreach, or various other spiritual disciplines, but we have felt that the Lord wants us to set aside the next 40 days to be more like Him! That is why this is called “40 Days with CHRIST.” In the next 40 days, we want our way of thinking to be transformed into the mind of CHRIST! In the next 40 days, we want our life-styles to become like CHRIST! In the next 40 days, we want our prayer to become like CHRIST! Over the next 40 days, our Desire, Devotion, Denial, Dependence, Duty, & Discipleship can become like CHRIST!

Give me an H!

February 25, 2024 • Pastor Tim Linick • Matthew 5:3–17, Mark 10:13–16

Last Sunday we looked at the “C” of CHRIST as we launched our 40 Days with CHRIST campaign. Now, "Give me an H!" as we rediscover three fundamental motivators close to the heart of our Lord! Giving heed to these will help to keep us on track in our effort to touch lives for CHRIST in this generation! As we continue our 40 Days with CHRIST, let’s focus on three motivators in our effort to draw closer to Christ and better serve our generation.

Give me an R!

Give me an I!

March 10, 2024 • Pastor Tim Linick • Romans 8:24–28

After we begin to follow Christ, we can encounter many pitfalls primarily due to our own personal weaknesses. Pastor Tim examines both the problems and solutions as we look at the “I” in our 40 days with CHRIST!

Give me an S!

March 17, 2024 • Pastor Tim Linick • Mark 10:35–45, 2 Timothy 2:15

Here we are—Day 28 in our 40 Days with CHRIST! We have looked at the “C” “H” “R” & “I” so far. Can you remember? C — COMPASSION, CALLING, COMMITMENT—don’t forget these principles! H — HOLINESS, HOSPITALITY, HEAVEN & HELL—motivation momentum! R — REPENTANCE, RESTORATION, RESTITUTION—resolved to change! I — INFIRMITIES, INTERCESSION, IMMANUEL—He’ll help you! Now we come to the “S!” Let’s consider three CATALYSTS for spiritual growth as we endeavor to become more like CHRIST.

Give me a T!

March 24, 2024 • Pastor Tim Linick • Revelation 12:7–12

We have looked at the “C” “H” “R” “I” & “S” in our 40 Days with CHRIST… C — COMPASSION, CALLING, COMMITMENT—keep these before us! H — HOLINESS, HOSPITALITY, HEAVEN & HELL—add these to them! R — REPENTANCE, RESTORATION, RESTITUTION—resolved to change! I — INFIRMITIES, INTERCESSION, IMMANUEL—He’ll help you! S — SCRIPTURE, SERVICE, STEWARDSHIP—Growth through service! Now we come to the “T!”
