Sunday Sermon Review

Review the Sunday sermon that helped you the most.  What did you learn about God, His Word, or the Christian life.  How can you apply these truths to your own life.

I really appreciate our church's Wednesday night children's ministry Master Clubs. At the back of their Amassador book for 4th-6th graders there are a total of 90 weeks of devotions. Every week starts with this Sunday Sermon Review.  This has really been helpful not only for Cameron but m as well.  If we aren't learning something what are we doing this for?  If we aren't allowing the Word of God to change our behavior, our thoughts, our lives, what are we doing this for?

There have been weeks when this has been quite a challenge.  Cameron is a very literal person.  Once he knew how to tell time he would argue with me about time.  I would say it was 3:30.  He would argue that it was 3:28.  So when I try to help him with this part of his weekly devotions he just wants to tell me what his Sunday School lesson was about.


Application, I'm finding, is hard to teach.  I need to practice what I want him to do.

Today's sermon was on communication with a focus on communication in marriage.  I was encouraged that my husband and I are pretty much on track with our communication.  We have not had any major bumps in awhile and we have really worked hard to get where we are.  There is always room for improvement, but over all I was encouraged.

My conviction though came in my communication with Cameron.  I do not always communicate with him in a godly manor and the Lord used this sermon to speak to my heart about that.

"Let the words of my moth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength and, my redeemer."  Psalm 19:14
