What are you worried about right now?
Your health?
Your finances?
Your kids?
Maybe, it's your aging parents.
It could be our country or the government.
If you're alive, chances are you probably struggled with worry. Some people worry a lot, while others occasionally allow things to overwhelm their thoughts. No matter how often or how little, worry can overtake our lives.
One thing we know about worry is that it doesn't change your situation. It only changes you. In this message, Pastor Lance finishes the message series, A Better Perspective, with a message on worry. In this message, he gives us 3 "I" statements to help us avoid taking the shortcut to worry.
Seeing Beyond What You See Now
May 28, 2023 • Pastor Lance Bradley • Philippians 3
What do you see that no one else seems to see?
Perhaps what you see as a messy house your family might see as acceptable. Maybe you see your cat as affectionate, playful, and cuddly, and your spouse sees it as a mischievous and sassy ball of fur. Or you might still see yourself as the same cool person from college, but your kids don't see it that way.
In reality, you see things that others don't, and others see some things you don't. The way we see things matters and can change our lives.
In this message, Pastor Lance shares three ways of seeing beyond what you see now. It has the potential to impact your life greatly and help you choose a better perspective.
The Way We Think
May 21, 2023 • Pastor Lance Bradley • Philippians 2:17, Philippians 2:1–2, Philippians 2:3–5, Philippians 2:5–7, Philippians 2:8–11
In this message, Pastor Lance shared some practical ways to help us choose a better perspective for our thoughts to help us learn to think like Jesus.
In our fast-paced society every day, it's easy to be overrun by its noise and the many distractions it provides and underestimate the significance and power of our thoughts.
Choosing the right thoughts can change any situation, even when the situation doesn't change. It helps us overcome negative thinking and aligns our minds with God's truth.
Thinking right is essential to living right. It shapes our perspective on everything.
As you watch this message, take time to do a "thoughts analysis." Think about the way you think. It influences your emotions and steers the course of your life. How you think is the architect of your character and a blueprint for your future.
Stop Asking Why
May 14, 2023 • Pastor Lance Bradley • Philippians 1:3–7, Philippians 1:12–21
In this message, Pastor Lance talked about one of the biggest problems most people don't know is a problem. What is the problem, you ask? Chances are you're not choosing the better perspective.
When life doesn't go your way, many times, it's reflected in your attitude, emotions, and even how you behave. A Better Perspective can be the difference maker.
There may be an area in your life where you need to choose a better perspective. It might be your marriage. It might be with your health. It could even be with a relationship. No matter what it is, a better perspective can change your situation even though your situation doesn't change.
In week one, Pastor Lance teaches how to choose A Better Perspective. It could be a game-changer for you.
