Here are 10 Tweets from my sermon last weekend, "Why Following Jesus will Get You in Trouble," Acts 3-4

1// If the way you follow Jesus would never get you in trouble, you're not following Jesus.

2// Tish Warren: "The student organization I worked for got kicked off campus for being the wrong kind of Christians"

3// The idea that you can preach the gospel by your actions without words is flawed.

4// Good deeds done without giving God the glory only serve to give you the glory.

5// When you follow Jesus, trouble will follow you.

6// Christianity levels the playing field. We're all sinners in need of grace.

7// Frank Viola: "Unlike all other faiths, Christianity is based entirely on a Person."

8// T-shirts: "We are here."

9// Don't make your mission field into your enemy.

10// Band of Brothers: "We're paratroopers, Lieutenant. We're supposed to be surrounded."

Hi Five Oakers, Here are most of the comments from the weekend Communication Cards:

// Nice to see Todd G. on bass today! [Yes, great to have him back in the band. He was our first ever drummer oh so many years ago!]

// Thank you, thank you for the beautiful worship! Really loved this worship especially how you guys did the crescendo at the end, so powerful and moving – Christ Alone, Cornerstone! Very moved by the message. I want to get in trouble for Jesus! [I agree on the beautiful worship. And, yes, it did build to such a great crescendo. Thank you Jeremy and team!]

// Great message! You might want to read “Captive in Iran”. Awesome read! [Thanks for the book recommendation.]

// Great message Henry, very convicting! Awesome worship time, thank you band!

// I am so undeserving of all the love and compassion that God has poured out to me through the kind, thoughtful and loving people of Five Oaks I could cry. Thank you all so much!

// Just an idea, but what about having an electronic version of the sermon notes for people who use tablets and phones. Not sure if there is a huge need or level of feasibility, but it’s an idea. [Let me know if you know a simple way to do it.]
