Generation NEXT!Helping Today’s Parents Disciple Tomorrow’s Leaders !

Dr. McKay Caston, Lead Pastor of Preaching & Leadership Message 4 of 4: “Heart Inspectors” !!

TODAY’S KEY BIBLE PASSAGES: Proverbs 4:23, Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. (NIV) !Matthew 15:19, For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander. (ESV) !Luke 6:45b, For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks. (ESV) !Ezekiel 36:26, I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. (NIV) !!THE BIG IDEA: ____________________________________________________________________________. !!MY NOTES:

GET CONNECTED! The Get Connected form in the bulletin is for you to fill out and place in the offering basket after the message. Our offering goes to support the ministry of the gospel locally through Creekstone and Campus Outreach, regionally through our church planting partnerships, and globally through the missionaries we support around the world. Your giving is making a difference toward the ripple effect of grace! !GENERATION NEXT: HELPING TODAY’S PARENTS DISCIPLE TOMORROW’S LEADERS In this month’s sermon series, we are exploring the foundations and implications of gospel-centered parenting, discovering that, ultimately, parenting it is a context for discipleship. This means that the goal is not merely behavior modification, but heart transformation. Whether or not you are a parent or a grand-parent, you are part of a church family that includes children, and every one of us plays a role in the discipleship of Generation NEXT. !GETTING EMOTIONAL: HOW GOD EMPLOYS OUR FEELINGS TO EXPOSE OUR SOULS TO THE GOSPEL Many of us are woefully out of touch with our emotional lives and the opportunity that our feelings provide for knowing God more fully and intimately. Others of us are so controlled by our emotions that we are unable to see God in the midst of our anger, frustration, jealousy, depression and disappointment. This summer series in the Psalms will help us be more alive to the purpose of our emotions and the more authentic life that can result from the grace of a greater gospel-awareness. !GRACEKIDS! GraceKids is a teaching environment during the morning service that is designed for children ages 3 through 5th grade. Children who wish to participate in GraceKids will be dismissed from the service after the announcements just before the sermon. Parents may pick up their children after the service.
