Here are the next chapter notes and study guide for the next week! I want to encourage you to continue working on the book of James.

I am excited about a new venture that Celebration Church is launching out with. “Straight Talk” is our ever first ever series through a book of the Bible. We will start this weekend and run 5 weeks. Oh, and by the way, when I say that I am stoked about a particular series that I am preaching please don’t misconstrue that I mean that I am stoked about hearing myself preach again. Hearing myself on podcast is like torture! Ashley (the foxy women I live with) walked by one day and asked, “Are you listening to Joyce Meyer?”And I replied with pure fury, “no, that is me!” She walked away laughing, I cried like a baby! See ya this weekend! later tim
I just wanted to say thanks to the good people of Celebration Church for their outlandish gift (3,000.00 Trip to Disney World) to my family last weekend in our service. I am completely humbled by that token of appreciation and could not be more thankful. One of the great joys from the gift was when we were able to tell our children that we were going to Disney World and that the people of the church loved them enough to send them to the Magical Kingdom. It was one of my highlights of ministry to be able to my children that! thanks again, we have talked about every night since that Sunday! Yesterday we were able to book our trip and all the dining places and we are totally stoked! tim
a couple of pics from the last few fishing trips I have made. We pulled a couple of big reds off of dixie bar, and caught an afternoon bite at Zundel’s with Ashley and the kids, (By the way my wife is an excellent fisherman/fisherwoman), I know it’s tough, but someone’s got to do it. Life is Good, God is Good!
Message Notes form Kids Day 10 things we want the kids of Celebration Church and the kids of the World to know:May the LORD make you increase, both you and your children. May you be blessed by the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. (Psalm 115:14-15) Story of ColeWe want you to know…You are loved, you are wanted and You are not a mistake, and we will treat you accordingly.Sons are a heritage from the LORD, children a reward from him. (Psalm 127:3)Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one’s youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate. (Psalm 127:3-5) We want you to know… We will live for Jesus from now until the endThe righteous who walks in his integrity—blessed are his children after him! (Proverbs 20:7) We want you to know… We will do our best to discern what you need most and give it!Fathers, do not embitter your children, or they will become discouraged. (Colossians 3:21)We want you to know… Your integrity is more important than your behavior“Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.” (Proverbs 20:11 KJV).We want you to know… We will be your parents before we can be Your friendsDiscipline your son, for in that there is hope; do not be a willing party to his death. (Proverbs 19:18)We want you to know… We will protect you from poisonous culture when it invades our homeHe who fears the LORD has a secure fortress, and for his children it will be a refuge. (Proverbs 14:26) We want you to know… We will guard your eyes and ears and impurityWe want you to know… We will demand your respect so that you may live a long, full life.“Children, do what your parents tell you. This is only right. ‘Honor your father and mother’ is the first commandment that has a promise attached to it, namely, ‘so you will live well and have a long life’” (Ephesians 6:1-3 NIV). ?”Regard (treat with honor, due obedience, and courtesy) your father and mother, that your days may be long in the land the Lord your God gives you” ( Exodus 20:12 Amplified). ?We want you to know… We will make a disciple out of you before we make disciples out of anyone else.“Hear, my son, your father’s instruction, and do not forsake your mother’s teaching; indeed, they are a graceful wreath to your head and ornaments about your neck” (Proverbs 1:8-9 NASB).For I have chosen him, that he may command his children and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord by doing righteousness and justice, so that the Lord may bring to Abraham what he has promised him.” (Genesis 18:19) We want you to know… We will not allow you to play it safe, but will push you to chase your God Given Dreams! For you know how, like a father with his children, we exhorted each one of you and encouraged you and charged you to walk in a manner worthy of God, who calls you into his own kingdom and glory. (1 Thessalonians 2:7-8, 11-13)
I just wanted to say thank you to all the people who worked hard the week of Easter to have a great weekend at CC. We had a good time and came in at 292 between two services on Sunday which was record breaking for us. I know that for a lot of places around the country 300 on an Easter Sunday is a chip shot, but at our stage at CC it was monumental. Two years ago we had less than 90 at Easter so God is up to something great at CC. Thanks for all the wonderful, crazy people who cal CC their home. You are loved!laterts

They had over 60 in small groups for the second consecutive week and we just spoke with Clark, our Jr High Small Group and he is super excited about what is happening in our jr high ministry. I am incredibly pumped for 770. Their team is doing an impeccable job! I guess all I can say is cudos to 770 ad their team. later
