Marriage & Ministry - International (pt 1.)

In part 1 of this 2 part podcast we talk about making sure we had the right foundation in our marriage. Making sure communication remained a priority, not letting ministry define us as a couple and making sure it wasn't intertwined with our marriage. What happens if your ministry ends and you don't know how to be a couple away from serving in that capacity?

Church online with small group meetups. | A new Church plant growing in the city of Los Angeles, CA | NWLAChurch is aiming to break the barriers of tradition and location. An online presence can make an impact both globally and locally. The idea is not too complicated - have the majority of teaching and preaching material available online and discuss this material in person in smaller groups. We can reach far and wide and then have smaller meetings that allow us to seek the Biblical application and relevance of scripture for our everyday lives.

NWLA Church | First - your first ministry

Proverbs 10:9 Whoever walks in integrity walks securely, but he who makes his ways crooked will be found out.
.
Be right inside, so you can be right in front.
.
God is at work in you. Integrity is holding on to what the Holy Spirit has convicted you of. Character is applying that conviction.
.
Philippians 2:12-13 12 Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, 13 for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure.
.
2 Peter 3:9 9 The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you,[a] not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.

Matthew 28:18-20
18 And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.

NWLA Church | "Stir"

2 Timothy 1:6-7
6 Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands. 7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.
 
The gift in you is not just for you.
 
“Some people have a warped idea of living the Christian life. Seeing talented, successful Christians, they attempt to imitate them. For them, the grass on the other side of the fence is always greener. But when they discover that their own gifts are different or their contributions are more modest (or even invisible), they collapse in discouragement and overlook genuine opportunities that are open to them. They have forgotten that they are here to serve Christ, not themselves."
- Billy Graham

NWLA Church | "Surround"

Surround | Psalm 1:1-4
Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers;
but his delight is in the law (or instruction) of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night.
He is like a tree planted by streams of water
that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither.
In all that he does, he prospers. The wicked are not so,
but are like chaff that the wind drives away.
.
Surround yourself with biblical Truths.
Surround yourself with the Gospel.
Surround yourself with mature Believers.
Surround yourself with the Holy Spirit.
Be Christ centered in your consumption.

NWLA Church | "Surrender"

New Wave Church
Los Angeles, California, USA
 
Surrender - the old man (habits , fears, the past).
 
Matthew 16:24-25
24 Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 25 For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
 
To surrender is to observe, submit and follow the leadership and Lordship of Jesus over your life.

NWLA Church | Ministry flows out of the Home 10/11/20

Ephesians 5:25-33
25 Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, 26 that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, 27 so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish. 28 In the same way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church, 30 because we are members of his body. 31 “Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” 32 This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church. 33 However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
.
If we can easily bypass our marriages for our ministries we can easily forget Christ in our Church. I would offer this to any married Christian couple - your Christianity is better reflected in your marriage than in any ministry.
