Fusion City Church

Everyone has a different measure of success. As Christians, though, our scorecard for how well we are following Christ should probably match the scorecard that Jesus gave us. In our new series starting today, we'll discover what that scorecard looks like, and hopefully as a church, make some commitments to align our definition of good enough with that of Jesus. What you will find when you do that is that close still only counts in Horseshoes and Hand Grenades.

Every one of us are affected by what we think about. It is most likely the general consensus that we don't have a lot of control over what makes its way into our minds. The Apostle Paul would emphatically disagree! He even gives us a tool on how to control what we think about, and a list of things we should be considering regularly. We'll examine the tool, and the list together today.

Tucked away in Philippians 4 is a nuanced promise that Paul said Christians can lean on. He tells us that when life is chaotic or full of stress we can receive the peace OF God. He does not say peace FROM God, but OF God. The difference between those two little words is significant and today we'll learn why together.

In a world of chaos, God calls his followers to be a resource of calm. However, you can't offer what you do not own. So, we must first remind ourselves of the source of our calm so that we can then offer peace to those in proximity to us.
