Preaching his final message in this incredible series on Joshua, Pastor Randy Norris illustrates how even the words of a dying man (Joshua) aren’t enough to guarantee that God’s people will always listen and obey. It requires our personal and daily surrender. It requires us making a choice to follow Jesus. Randy echos the now famous words of Joshua himself, ”As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord!”
What does this year hold in store for us? Truly, only God in heaven knows. Fortunately for those of us who are His children, He is also God who inside of us. That means this year is pregnant with possibilities because the same power that raised Jesus from the dead is alive in us! Pastor Randy puts a huge exclamation point to that exhilerating thought in this week’s message. As he lays out some plans for The Church at Ross Station in 2008, Pastor Randy encourages us as members of the Body of Christ “jump on board” the moving train that is the Church at Ross Station and is the abundant life with Jesus Christ!
In this final message of 2007, Pastor Randy Norris hits home and heart with his powerful challenge to reflect back then move forward. All of us have ideas of how we would like our lives to be. Pastor Randy shows us how not to repeat the mistakes we may have made in 2007. And he gives simple directions for make 2008 better than ever as we allow Christ to rule and reign over our calendars and our actions.
Refuge is a beautiful and peaceful – albeit absent word – in the life vocabularies of so many people today. We all desire a place of escape from the raging terrors and trials of these days. Yet, most of us search and never find true refuge. In this week’s message, Pastor Randy Norris highlights this tremendous need and gives positive and hopeful direction to any and all who are hurting. He compares the six cities of refuge in the book of Joshua to the place of refuge Christ is for us today. He also challenges the Church to become of place of protection and restoration for our community and our world.
In this amazing and motivating message, Pastor Randy hits another “homerun” within his series in the book of Joshua! Caleb was an Old Testament hero by any definition. Years earlier, he was one of two to return from across the Jordan to give the Israelites a good report of the promised land. Now in his twilight years, he still has vigor and enthusiasm for the journey. Listen as Pastor Randy explains how “that mountain” should be our mountain too – no matter in what stage in life we find ourselves!
Everywhere we turn, someone’s telling us to “get out of our box.” But that actually depends on what box they’re referring to. Yes, it’s good advice not to allow ourselves to be limited by our circumstances and our own small thinking. However, Dwayne Moore, worship leader at Ross Station, explains in this message that staying inside God’s box for us is, in fact, the very best thing we can do. If we want security, joy, peace and abundant life, we need to honor the limitations God has placed on our lives.
