The COMA Method
“And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up.” (Deut 6:6-7, NIV) Speaking the very words of God to other people has always been prevalent in the bible and believe it or not we are all commanded to do it in one way or another.

Prayer and Fasting
“But someday the groom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.” (Mark 2:20, NLT) It was just a few weeks ago that we started meeting together in our connect groups and I have been so encouraged to hear about the great discussions, deep thinking and times of prayer that have been happening during the week amongst those involved (and if you are still wanting to join a connect group, then please look at the connect information provided and get in contact with the leader to find out times and places etc…).

Psalms
“The blameless spend their days under the Lord’s care, and their inheritance will endure forever. In times of disaster they will not wither; in days of famine they will enjoy plenty.” (Psalm 37:18-19, NIV) You know I have often wondered as I read through the Psalms who on earth the psalmist is talking about, because half the time when I read the Psalms, especially in something like the one I have quoted above, I think this can’t possibly be talking about me.

Fishing for people
As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen… (Matt 4:18, NIV) Good morning Church. I have always wondered why Jesus didn’t go to the synagogue and grab theologians or go to the temple and grab priests to build His church while he was here conducting his earthly ministry all those years ago.
