Several months ago, we were blessed to have Dr Mel Blackaby come to serve as Pastor of First Baptist Church of Jonesboro. As part of the Blackaby family, I knew we were in for some insightful Bible teaching, but it didn't take long to figure out that his messages had profound meaning that my friends in the 'blog world' might benefit from too. For that purpose, and a desire of my own to have all my notes in one place, I decided to start a new blog that contained these messages. There will also be a few things from other speakers that I've heard over time, but those will be noted on the sidebar as they are added. I hope you get as much from these messages as I do!

Surprising and Supernatural

Mark 4:26-34

***If your vision is something YOU can attain, it probably is not God's will

***What appears impossible in the kingdom of God - isn't!  
              God works in mysterious, yet predictable, ways.

***What appears small and insignificant in the Kingdom of God - isn't!
              Spiritual growth happens through steadfast, faithful, consistent obedience

***The Kingdom of God gives strength for today and hope for tomorrow

Take your eyes off of the trials of today and put them on the prize of tomorrow.
