WHAT ABOUT KEN PAXTON???
Discussed by Terry Lowry
with Host of the What's UP Radio Program

Attorney General Ken Paxton has been a friend for many, many years and has been endorsed numerous times in the LINK Letter.

There is no doubt that Ken, through his staff at the AGs office, has accomplished much for Texas. This is worthy of applause.

But did the filing for divorce by Angela Paxton change the equation? Angela Paxton cited adultery as the reason, basing her decision on Biblical grounds.

DON’T SLEEP ON IT
Discussed by Justin Holcomb
with God Made All of Me (www.GodMadeAllOfMe.com)

Day 5

DO YOU EVER ACCIDENTALLY FALL ASLEEP IN CHURCH? I THINK WE’RE ALL GUILTY OF THAT FROM TIME TO TIME! WELL – DON’T FALL ASLEEP LISTENING TO THE SERMON EACH DAY THIS WEEK! THAT’S WHAT THE ENEMY – THE DEVIL – WANTS. SO STAY AWAKE AND PAY ATTENTION!

Champion Forest Baptist Church Student Pastor Justin Holcomb has a great sermon for us to kick off the year – reminding us that we must always be willing to know more about God as we grow in our faith and throw seeds to others as we share the Gospel.

Find Pastor Justin Holcomb’s sermon here.

If you have questions about a sermon, please contact Champion Forest at questions@cfbc.org

Questions/Issues Discussed:

DON’T SLEEP ON GROWING

Are you part of a small group? If not, why not? Quit doing life alone!

DON’T SLEEP ON THROWING

Are you throwing seeds everywhere you go? Do you worry if you are doing it right? Are you scared of rejection? Pastor Justin reads from Mark 4:1-9 – The Parable of the Sower and says: “Just throw the dang seed!”

But how do we throw the seed? Listen as Pastor Justin shares a few ways…


If you have never accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, text the word JESUS to 77069 and a pastor or counselor from CFBC will call you back.

PRAYER
Discussed by Terry Lowry
with Host of the What's UP Radio Program



Father God,

How you must cry when a soldier falls in battle defending faith, family, and freedom. Their death does not go unnoticed by you.

As we remember those who have not returned home from battles in faraway lands, may we stand in silence, acknowledging their ultimate sacrifice.

Today, and every day, Father God, comfort those who mourn. Hold them close and dry their tears.

Use our leaders for your glory and open their eyes to see evil in every form.

May the trumpet warning be heard and your saints take action.

O Hallelujah, Father! I am still here. There must be good for me to do today.

And if you grant me tomorrow, let’s be going and doing and working together, charging ahead to protect faith, family, and freedom.

No king but King Jesus, in whose name I pray,

Amen
