What Are You Talking About?

2011-12-20T09:54:00.000-06:00

So, what are the last words you say when you are leaving others? I find myself often ending a phone conversation with family members by saying, “Goodbye, I love you.” Those words are not just meaningless words, but are intended to remind those who are so precious to me that I cherish them.

Thinking about this led me to wonder what parting words were used by the writers of the epistles. I actually was amazed when I took time to look into this matter. Some of them ended their letters by sending greetings or expressing expectations to see others soon, but there is one phrase used consistently by Paul in his writings. Before reading more about the answer to this question, what phrase or phrases did Paul use as he ended his letters?

Paul’s parting words in his epistles. To the Corinthians, he said, “The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. My love be with you all in Christ Jesus” and “The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ . . . be with you all” (1 Cor. 16:23-24; 2 Cor. 13:14). As he finished his letter to the churches of Galatia, he said, “Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit” (Gal. 6:18). He had preached in Ephesus for three years and ended the epistle to them by saying, “Grace be with all of those who love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity” (Eph. 6:24). To the Colossians, he said, “Grace be with you” (Col. 4:18). The apostle to the Gentiles ended both letters to the Thessalonians with “the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you” (1 Thess. 5:28; 2 Thess. 3:18). He used the same words in the three epistles to younger preachers, “Grace be with you” (1 Tim. 6:21; 2 Tim. 4:22; Tit. 3:15). He finished that very personal letter to Philemon by saying, “The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.” The same idea is found in the last verse of Hebrews, “Grace be with you all.”

Paul’s emphasis on grace. Should there be any wonder as to why Paul magnified grace in his letters? He constantly had to deal with Judaizing teachers who tried to bind the law on Gentiles. Even more overwhelming was Paul’s realization that he, the chief of sinners, had received grace from God. The remembrance of His grace is the prime motivation for spiritual maturity (2 Pet. 1:8-9). He never wanted those around him to lose sight of the grace of God.

The emphasis of your words. What words, not just the parting ones, do people hear you mentioning most often? Do they ever hear a spiritual emphasis, or is it always on secular matters? One could not be around Paul without hearing about grace. What do those around you hear from you?

Jesus Believed Every Word of the Bible. . . . Do You?

2011-12-13T10:14:00.000-06:00

When one reads the accounts provided of the life of Jesus in the New Testament, the knowledge and respect that He had for the Old Testament Scriptures ought to impress upon us the same urgent need to increase our own knowledge and respect for God’s Word.
Jesus believed the words of the Bible. When He taught about the resurrection of the dead, He quoted from Exodus, “I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob,” to prove that “God is not the God of the dead, but of the living” (Matt. 22:37). Jesus believed the words of the Bible. Do you?
Jesus believed the stories of the Bible. When He taught about the nature of His own death, He illustrated it by referring to when “Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness” (John 3:14). Jesus believed the stories of the Bible. Do you?
Jesus believed the prophecies of the Bible. When He was handed the book of the prophet Isaiah in the synagogue in Nazareth, He read from Isaiah 49:8-9 and then said, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing” (Luke 4:16-21). Jesus believed the prophecies of the Bible. Do you?
Jesus believed the eternal truths of the Bible. When He was asked about the ever-important subject of marriage, He pointed His challengers to “the beginning of the creation” (when God created marriage) and quoted this everlasting precept of God, “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh” (Mark 10:1-8). Jesus believed the eternal truths of the Bible. Do you?
Jesus believed even the “hard to believe” things in the Bible. There is a story in the Old Testament that tops every sceptics list as something they count to be “purely mythical” or “scientifically impossible.” In their estimation, “Jonah was never swallowed by a big fish, surviving three days in its belly before being extruded out on land none the worse for wear.” However, of all the ways to depict His burial and His resurrection on the third day, Jesus chose to use the story of Jonah for comparison. “…[N]o sign will be given...except the sign of the prophet Jonah. For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth” (Matt. 12:39-41). Jesus believed even the “hard to believe” things in the Bible. Do you?
Do you believe in Jesus? If so, do you, like Him, believe every word of the Bible? Do you respect the Bible like Jesus did?

Close Enough

2011-12-12T11:18:00.000-06:00

How often does the philosophy “close enough” impact your daily life? You pull into a parking space and you’re a little further to the right than you should be—close enough! You cut a piece of wood and it’s one-eighth of an inch off—close enough! You call your child by the wrong name but it’s still somebody in the family—close enough!

How do you suppose that philosophy works with God? Pick up your Bible and pick a Bible teaching. Is “close enough” good enough with God?

In order to become a Christian, God says that one must hear the gospel message (Rom. 10:13-17), believe the gospel (John 20:30-31), repent of his sins (Acts 17:30), confess his faith in the Son of God (Rom. 10:9-10) and be baptized for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38; 22:16). Suppose someone looks at this, having already (in their minds) believed, repented and confessed, and he says, “Close enough!” Is it really close enough for God?

In order to win souls to Christ, God says that one must “let his light shine” (Matt. 5:16), be mindful of the works that others see in him (Matt. 5:16), put the church first in his life (Matt. 6:33), exhort others to worship God (Matt. 4:10; Heb. 10:25), demonstrate his faith by his works (Jas. 2:18), be holy in all his conduct (1 Pet. 1:15) and preach the gospel message to those who are lost in sin (Mark 16:15). Suppose someone looks at this, scared to death or embarrassed at the idea of actually teaching the gospel, and he says, “I’ve lived a good example before others. They can see Jesus living in me. That’s close enough!” Is it really close enough for God?

In order to go to heaven, God says that one must go through Christ (John 14:6), obey His will (Matt. 7:21), make his call and election sure by growing diligently (2 Pet. 1:5-11), and faithfully serve Him for life (Rev. 2:10). Suppose someone, on the day of judgment, looks at this, having never been convinced that they could actually lose their salvation once they had been baptized, and says, “Well, I was close enough.” Is it really close enough for God?

The philosophy “close enough” may work in some of the inconsequential situations we face in life (parking, woodwork, horseshoes, etc.). However, following the “close enough” philosophy can cost you your soul.

In Numbers 13, the Israelites came to the border of the Promised Land (couldn’t get any closer), but they failed to enter the land of rest. “Close enough” was not good enough with God. Read chapters 3-4 in the book of Hebrews. May God help us to not come short of our rest (Heb. 4:1; 12:15)!

Lock in 2012

2011-12-07T13:47:00.002-06:00

The Stuart church of Christ is hosting our second annual LOCK-IN at our Outreach building on January 1st, 2012 starting at 2pm and ending on Monday, January 2nd at 9am.
There will be:
 Capture the Flag
 Youth lead worship
 Food
 Basketball tournament
 Board games
 Movies
 Baking contest
 More…
The theme for the night is “What happens next?”
We’ll be looking at how far reaching our decisions can be, who can help or hurt them, how they define how responsible I am, and what happens if I’m unprepared.

Matthew 25:11-12, “‘Sir! Let us in!’ they cried out. ‘Certainly not! I don't know you…’”

Call or email me for more info. Please RSVP by Dec 28th, 2011. See you there!

What are you doing to help?

2011-08-23T07:47:00.000-05:00

Paul told Timothy that "The things which you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, entrust these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also." (2 tim 2:2) He also told Titus to have the older people teach the younger people on how to live and behave, (titus 2). How serious do we take that teaching? Was it just for those guys? I hope that you would agree that's for everyone.

We live in a culture that is growing more desperate for instruction and guidance but so few people will speak up to offer godly advice in a kind way. James reminds us that "if anyone among you wanders away from the truth and is brought back again, you can be sure that the one who brings that person back will save that sinner from death and bring about the forgiveness of many sins." (James 5:19-20)

We have such a tremendous opportunity to let our light shine and help be the guidance so many people are looking for but afraid to ask. In doing that we may find that we are helped as well.

Do what you can do to ensure that we don't resemble what Paul was so frustrated by in the Galatians. He said in Galatians 1:6
, "I am amazed that you are so quickly deserting Him who called you by the grace of Christ, for a different gospel..." Don't desert God's instructions for Satan's, you will regret it.

2011-08-22T07:48:00.000-05:00

"Teach me Your way, O Lord, and lead me in a smooth path, because of my enemies. Do not deliver me to the will of my adversaries; for false witnesses have risen against me, and such as breathe out violence." (Psalm 27:11-12)

What are "his ways"? Can we understand them? Eph 5:17 tells us that we aren't supposed to be "foolish, but understand God's will". If understanding is possible, then we CAN learn what will make our life easier according to his instructions. I like the way Solomon says it in Prov 22:3 "The prudent sees the evil and hides himself, but the naive go on, and are punished for it." Once we know what God wants from us then we can more easily recognize a plot to ruin our lives and we can hide ourselves from that.

Paul told us to "not be overcome with evil, but overcome evil with Good", that should be our goal and by doing so we smooth out the issues we face in life.

God will help

2011-08-20T07:23:00.000-05:00

Do not hide Your face from me; do not turn Your servant away in anger; you have been my help; do not leave me nor forsake me, O God of my salvation. When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take care of me. Psalm 27:9-10

It's wonderful to know that God longs to help us, let him!

Stuart's Zoo trip

2011-05-02T08:27:00.000-05:00

A group from the Stuart church of Christ took a group of kids up to the OKC Zoo. What started out to be a questionble day as far as the weather goes, turned out to be the perfect day to go. Although the crowds were plentiful, it was still good fun. There was a walk for MS at the Zoo earlier in the morning.

Sometimes it seemed the fake animals were the bigger attraction than the real ones.

It was a day well spent with family and friends. At the end of the day many of the kids decided to take some of the animals home with them. Luckily they went with the plastic noisy ones over the large stinky ones.

Thank you for all the people that helped make this trip a success. Our next event is Lazer Tag in Ada sometime in May or June, let me know which you prefer.

Oklahoma City Walk MS 2011: National MS Society - Oklahoma Opportunity - VolunteerMatch

2011-04-04T14:57:00.000-05:00

The Stuart church has tentatively scheduled a "day at the Zoo" for April 30th. This just so happens to be a day that the zoo has sponsored a Multiple Sclerosis walk from 7am-noon. You don't have to be up there the entire time, but it would be great for our church to be part of it. The following link should give more information, or just google Oklahoma City MS walk at the zoo.

Waiting for something good

2011-03-08T13:27:00.000-06:00

For a lot of people instant gratification wins out over faith all the time. It can be difficult to just "wait" for something good when we see others seemingly satisfied with what they don't wait for.

My wife is nearing the end of her pregnancy and we're about to welcome a new kid into this world. With all our kids we never found out what sex they were until they were born, well with the very real posibility that this one could be our last one, I'm anxious to see what it will be. Although the wait can be frustrating I know it will be worth it. Perhaps that's the way heaven will be like. Heaven is the greatest promise we could ever be given, yet we have to wait for it.

What is something you had to wait for... and you're glad you did? I'd be interested in hearing about it.

when a good soldier has fallen...

2011-03-01T03:53:00.000-06:00

Jesus said in John 15:13, "Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends." This is the ultimate act of love and devotion that anyone could do for someone. Soldiers will never forget the one's that made the sacrifice for them. In the Lord's Army we too have soldiers that have fallen, but their ultimate act wasn't done in a single scirmish but most often their sacrifice was displayed over time through their selflessness, through their loyalty to God's Kingdom. There are many that we know that have made an impact in our life, and we will never forget how they lived for God so boldly. Thankfully, in Christ, there really isn't an "end", but rather a brand-new beginning. As a good friend of mine said at the passing of his father, "[seeing that person again] makes the goal of heaven that much sweeter." I encourage you to live for Christ with all the passion you can muster, to love others the way God has loved each one of us.

New year to let our light shine

2011-01-05T05:33:00.000-06:00

I'm not sure what you felt like you accomplished in 2010, but here's your opportunity to do it better. The neat thing about NOW is that there aren't any regrets right now, well there shouldn't be. Our past is where we have our failures, disappointments, and mess ups; but the present is the time to make it right.

I can attest to the fact that I didn't do everything I wanted to do in 2010, lot's of things were started and like too many people, few things came to fruition. However, the best I can do is the best I can do - and give it another try with more determination. If you have some great success stories from last year (or any time), or goals you'd like to post that might in some way keep you more accountable, then feel free to respond and let me know. Have a great year!

LOCK IN and much more

2010-12-16T09:05:00.000-06:00

On Tuesday, December 21st, the first day after school is out, we are going to host a lockin at the Outreach Building. BUT... It's more than that. We're going to head out to Jack & Shirley Emerson's place for some "capture the flag", then we're going to have a cook out, after that we'll go Christmas Caroling for some of our neighbors, THEN the lock-in officially begins. There's going to be a basketball tournament; all kinds of games: cards, dominoes, other board games; crafts; and movies. We might even squeeze in some sleep...but don't count on it. Come join the fun!

Oh yeah, it's for ages 2nd grade and up, but in order to get in you got to have a parental consent form signed. Give me a shout and I'll get one to you, or just drop by the church sometime before Tuesday.

Fifth Quarter this Friday night!

2010-11-01T12:34:00.000-05:00

This Friday will be the first of only two Friday homegames that Stuart has on the schedule. It's our goal to get as many players (and their families) to come by and enjoy some sub-sandwhiches and a build-your-own sundae after the game against Calvin. Enjoy the food and more importantly enjoy the company, come by and support our local athletes.

The next scheduled fifth quarter that we'll be hosting is on January 28th against Red Oak.

ECOYC commonly known as Arrowhead Camp

2010-07-15T15:33:00.000-05:00

Well it's time for camp. This is a new one for me, but I'm looking forward to it. If you haven't ever been to church camp, its probably THE event that helps kids bond with other Christian kids the most. This week will be the 9th-12th grade camp and next week is the 3rd-8th graders. The theme will be "the greatest show on earth" which is obviously talking about the church. Although some might shy away from calling it a show, it is the most powerful, exciting, and rewarding organization we could ever be a part of, simply because its more than an organization, its a group that has been added to the Lord's body. That sounds odd to some people but it will all make more sense one the day all this temporary earthy stuff fades away and the permanent spiritual matter is all that's left.

Well, this is the first post I've put on here in a LOOOOOOOOOONG time so I apologize for being slow and will try to have more stuff on here soon. Have a great week.

Youth Focus - Stuart

2010-03-05T07:24:00.000-06:00

On March 7th at 4:30pm we will be hosting the area Youth Focus. We'll be looking at finding direction in life. Its my hope that we'll point kids in the right direction by challenging them to consider where they are headed. In Psalms 119:105 we're told the tool that helps us see where we're going, "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path." Be sure to encourage someone to stay "on track" today. See you Sunday!

A great season!

2010-03-05T07:19:00.001-06:00

I want to congratulate the Stuart Hornets on a great season. It ended sooner than we hoped but the boys played hard and we're proud of you all!

Lazer Zone

2009-12-20T16:53:00.000-06:00

Here are a few pictures from Lazer Zone. We had a great turnout and a BLAST!

Lazer zone this Saturday!

2009-12-15T09:05:00.000-06:00

We're headed to Ada on Saturday (about 3pm) to go to Lazer zone and then we'll check out wintersmith park and the lights there. Lazer zone has lazer tag, bowling, arcades, and miniture golf, probably something else too. We'll eat dinner there so be sure to bring some money for food (probably around $15-$20 for everything). It will be fun.

Free Coat and Shoe Giveaway

2009-12-13T21:51:00.000-06:00

For two weekends, the kids gave away coats, shoes, and hot chocolate. We helped several families in the community and the kids did a wonderful job. There were several tasks that had to be done to get this project going and run successful and the kids met that challenge. If you know of anybody that is still in need of coats or shoes, let us know.

5th Quarter

2009-12-13T21:40:00.000-06:00

5th Quarter is hopefully a new tradition that we are starting here in the town of Stuart. After every home game we are going to host a meal for the girls and boys basketball teams. Just a little reminder to show them how much we care about them. A good time for the community of Stuart to come together and eat some good food and have a good time. Go Stuart Hornets!

Coats and Shoes Giveaway

2009-12-03T22:38:00.000-06:00

We will be giving away Coats and Shoes this Saturday, December 5th from 10-12. If you know of anybody that is in need of these items let them know about it. We hope to have a great turn out.

Robbers Cave Retreat!

2009-11-17T16:58:00.000-06:00

On November 13th 10 of us headed over to Wilburton to go to a youth retreat at Robbers Cave. We sang a few goofy songs, suffered from some caffine withdraws, and didn't get much sleep, but over all we had a great time getting to know some other kids from around here and we took time to consider how God has TRANSFORMED our lives, and we have to make sure we stick out in this world by NOT conforming to everyone else...

It wasn't the Ramada but it was home... at least for a night or two.

Since the theme was TRANSFORMERS, we built our own transformer. But there were 4 different teams that built it. 1 team built an arm and a leg, another team built the other arm and leg, and another the head, and one built the torso. We didn't know what the other team was building so needless to say it looked a little wierd. In fact, I didn't even want to take a picture of it... well actually I forgot.

We also did a little rock climbing at the Robbers Cave... that was fun. There were no injuries, and for that I was both shocked and thankful.

Happy Birthday Jessie!

2009-11-08T22:19:00.003-06:00

Happy 94th Birthday Jessie! We had a celebration this morning for one of our young ladies in our congregation. She turned the young age of 94. Just wanted to let you know that we love you and are so lucky to be able to worship with such a lovely Christian woman.

Haywood Tournament Champions

2009-11-08T22:16:00.003-06:00

Congratulations to the Stuart Boys 5th & 6th grade for taking home the championship this past weekend at the Haywood Tournament. You guys played great! You are true winners on the inside and outside.

Hope Harbor

2009-11-08T22:14:00.002-06:00

A group of kids (5) and Kelley headed to Hope Harbor this past weekend to drop off school supplies. The church here has been collecting supplies for about two months. The kids were more than willing to see them get transported to the right location. Everybody had a ton of fun with a lot of basketball and dodge ball being played as well. We hope that we can go back and see them real soon.

Trunk or Treat

2009-10-20T16:19:00.005-05:00

On Saturday, October 31st, we are having a trunk or treat in the parking lot at the church from 5pm-8pm or until the candy runs out. I thought I would put a little more information on here for those of you that have never been to a trunk or treat. We are asking the congregation to either bring their cars/trunks or pickup beds to church and pass out candy to the kids. The cars will be parked in a circle with their trunks all facing towards the middle. Having your trunks/pickup beds decorated would be wonderful but is not necessary. If you don't want to decorate your trunks, don't let that discourage you from coming. You will have to purchase candy as well as pass out. Hot chocolate and maybe popcorn will be given out. If anybody would like to volunteer for that position please contact Kelley. Please come out and support this and let the town of Stuart know how much you care about kids.

Meat & Greet Outreach

2009-10-09T13:58:00.002-05:00

We started a new program that we'll be doing every month called Meat & Greet Outreach. The idea is that we make an effort to reach out to those people that we haven't seen in a while in worship services. People need to know that they are appreciated and missed when they can't, or won't come to services. Being faithful to the assembly isn't just about attendance, it's also the fact that it is a missed opportunity to worship and to encourage each other. So this is an effort to do just that.

The next time we'll meet is November 5th at 6:30. Our menu is soups and salads so come out and join us in encouraging the sick, the lonely, and those that have gotten out of the habit of attending worship. See you there!

Marriage Enrichment Seminar

2009-09-22T21:40:00.004-05:00

The Marriage Enrichment Seminar will be held every Monday night in October at 6:30. Dinner will be provided and we will have babysitting available too. There is a sign up sheet in the foyer, please sign up if you can help out.

Women's Bible Study

2009-09-18T10:04:00.002-05:00

The women at church have decided that we need to change the location of our bible study. Since we had an overwhelming amount of ladies interested in this study, it needs to be moved to the church building. So our next study will be held in the dining hall at 9:30 on September 21st. Rosie is in charge of drinks for this coming Monday. Looking forward to studying more out of the Book of Daniel!!!!!

Baby Shower for Baby Corley

2009-09-15T11:40:00.004-05:00

Josh and Tera are expecting their 3rd child in November. A little baby shower was given for them this last Sunday. A couple of games were played that really tested our knowledge and the winners were Jade and Tera. Another games consisted of guessing how big Tera's belly is and here grandma Imogene won that one. Can't wait to see Baby Corley and so good to see you guys!

Batter Up!

2009-09-10T22:09:00.005-05:00

Here are a couple of pictures from tonights game. Girls won! Boys lost :(

Baby Shower!!!

2009-09-10T13:59:00.002-05:00

It's a party!!! Well, actually its a baby shower, but that might be a party to some. Tera Corley is expecting, and the ladies a the Stuart church of Christ would like to "shower" Tera and the new baby with all the things she'll need. The shower will be held at Lisa Clayton's house on Sunday (Sept. 13th) at 3 pm. If you'd like more details then either respond here, or just give Lisa a call.

work day sept 12th!

2009-09-09T22:20:00.000-05:00

This Saturday morning (Sept. 12th) at 9am there will be a work day at the church. We'll be focusing on cleaning up the new building and getting it ready for completion, hopefull soon. However there is plenty to do around the outside of the buildings, as well as a few things inside the church building.

Here are a few thoughts on what we could tackle:
1. clean up scrap wood on the inside of the new building
2. move and arrange the cement car stops and white rock to be more presentable and easier to mow.
3. clean up the supply room
4. level rough spots on the driveways and alley

If you can help plan on being there. I know a lot of people have a lot of things going on this time of year so we won't make it an all day event, but we could appreciate the help. Thanks

some change for a change

The kids at the Stuart church of Christ have decided to help some people out by gathering up their change to go towards meeting some of the needs of people in the area. Their focus is coats and shoes for this winter, but they have even more plans in the works. This started from a challenge I gave them to see how closely they could come to looking like the first century church that we read about in Acts. In Acts 2, after the church began, the first Christians began selling their possessions to give to the poor. Later in Acts 4 we see that they were still doing it, so much so that no one had any needs among them. Be sure to encourage them to continue to be a light in the world as Jesus wants us to be.

Giving is something anyone can do, and its something that God rewards generously for. Whether you're rich or poor you can give something to those in need; perhaps an encouraging word, or a smile, or a compliment, maybe your time and obviously money or other personal possessions. At a time when people are nervous about tomorrow, let each one of us stand out as the light that God has called us to be, the guiding light for tomorrow.

Here's the Stuart Hornet's game schedule for tomorrow. I'm sure this is for me more than anyone else, I just got the schedule and have been intending on making it to some games but just haven't made the long trek across the road - shame on me! Anyways, hopefully I'll be able to make a few of these and I thought just in case anyone else didn't know when our Hornet's played I'd start putting the game schedule on here. I'll get the rest put on later.

September 10th

Baseball - Vanoss @ Stuart 4:30pm

sometimes its tough starting new things, but beginning something new with Jesus is much easier. Many people decide to make changes to their life, but the fear of doing that new thing, or the discipline of sticking to it usually gets them to quit. I hope this is an area that you can post your thoughts about your walk with God and express your feelings about the decisions you'll make throughout the year.
