A Thousand Ways to Set You Free

July 1, 2018 • Graeme Sellers

Our words create worlds. They shape and create the world we live in. Speak words of gratitude and this will color every landscape you see, no matter your circumstances. Speak dark, despairing words and you’ll find that’s the kind of world you inhabit.

Words have always created worlds. Consider: how was our world made? With words.
Ten times in the creation account of Genesis 1 we read this: “And God said…” Not coincidentally Genesis 2:1 opens with this declaration: “Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array.”

Genesis 1:28 reports that we are made in God’s image, so why should it surprise us that our words have creative power as well?

The creative power of our words are derived from the One who is the living Word. He is the Word, and His words are the ultimate world-makers and reality-shapers.

Upside Down Kingdom

God says: 1. If you want to be great… be a servant 2. To find yourself…you must die to yourself 3. To get back at your enemy…you should love him 4. To become rich… give money away God's kingdom is an upside down kingdom! When we clothe ourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, patience and love…which is clothing ourselves with the person and nature of http://christ...we’re clothing ourselves for battle.

Words Create Worlds

Our words create worlds. The words we speak shape and create world we live in. Words have always created worlds. It’s true. How was our world made? Words. Ten times in the creation account of Genesis 1 we read this: “And God said…” Their impact is captured in Genesis 2:1 “Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array.” Gen. 1:28 reports that we are made in God’s image, so why should it surprise us that our words have creative power as well? God would urge us to listen to ourselves, to pay attention to the words we speak and the worlds they create.

What's the Point?

December 16, 2018 • Graeme Sellers

What’s the point of this – the Sunday morning church gathering that is, for many of us, a regular part of our lives? What if the point isn’t what we think it is, or is more than we imagined it is? God isn’t afraid of honest inquiry or the fierce conversation, and the answers to this question may surprise and delight us!
