Everybody is dealing with problems and issues in this life. Many are struggling with depression or addictions. Some still carry scars from being hurt early in their life. Others are coping with rejection and abandonment. We all carry baggage that at times hurts and at other times simply makes it impossible for us to live happy lives. This month I will preach a series “Broken People”.

No matter how hurt and dysfunctional a person is there is someone who heals us and makes us whole. Jesus can take away our pain and our brokenness and replace it with peace and health. Jesus gives peace. His presence in our lives creates stability, allows forgiveness to take place and drives away the demons of anxiety and fear.

Stop Blaming Yourself

Taking Responsibility

November 12, 2011: We will learn how to stop blaming other people and circumstances for our own misery. Broken people always blame and are to afraid to own up to their own responsibility for how their lives are.

 

Letting Go Of Negativity

November 19, 2011: Whole people have the ability to see things for what they are and for focusing on the most positive outlook. Broken people see doom and gloom everywhere and create misery for themselves and those around them. Jesus wants you to be whole.
