Mark Carlson - Design Christian Church
http://markcarlson.blogspot.com/2010/02/this-sunday-is-valentines-day-i-cant.html
Tuesday, February 9, 2010. This Sunday is Valentine's Day! Remember the last time it landed on a Sunday! We are going to be talking about what it means. Too often we view love as an emotion or something connected with flowers, chocolates, or jewelry. Jesus said is was deeper than that. Jesus said to love your enemy. Love those who treat you poorly. Love those who actually inflict bodily harm upon you. Jesus implied that we are to. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Go Back to DCC. A Reversal Of Thought.

Mark Carlson - Design Christian Church: TAKE A STEP BACK
http://markcarlson.blogspot.com/2010/03/take-step-back.html
Wednesday, March 3, 2010. TAKE A STEP BACK. In our hyper competitive. Society, when faced with an insurmountable challenge, we typically put the pedal to the metal and push on ahead. It doesn't matter if it is athletics or sales or the corporate board room arena, the challenge always come from somebody that we have to give more, push harder, give a better effort! But what happens when we are already at peak capacity and giving more is not an option? Talks about instead of trying harder, try different.

Mark Carlson - Design Christian Church: May 2010
http://markcarlson.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 6, 2010. I picked up Dick Hardy's recent book 27 TOUGH QUESTIONS PASTORS ASK. What a great book! I really mean that! I had the privilege of working with Dick in Des Moines. Iowa at a great church! He is a great friend and a gifted person. This book is filled with fantastic info. What I love about the book is that it doesn't offer 'how- to's. Great book. Great insight. Great answers. I'll have more on this in the next few days! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Go Back to DCC.

Mark Carlson - Design Christian Church: December 2009
http://markcarlson.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 24, 2009. I had a friend ask me the other day who has two young daughters, what Christmas is like when the girls get older. I told him it is still pretty much the same minus all the little pieces to the toys and doll clothes! I love Christmas, but my wife and daughters love it even more! Not because of the gifts, but because of the huge vault of valued memories they carry. I do as well; they just get so excited about it all! OK, so do I! Tuesday, December 1, 2009. Go Back to DCC.

Monday, March 8, 2010. HOW TO BUILD A CAR IN THREE HOURS! My daughter and me (with the help of my wife) built a car that propels itself! We did it in about three hours! OK, so the thing can't carry people or anything at all, but it still runs.for about 20 feet! We built a mousetrap car! I'm sure many of you have had to build one of these, but this is the first mousetrap. Car effort for this family.

Mark Carlson - Design Christian Church: February 2010
http://markcarlson.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 12, 2010. A Reversal Of Thought. I was reading the story of how Jesus healed the woman who had a bleeding disorder. It is found in Mark 5. She had struggled with this problem for 12 years. She had been to every doctor and she had spent everything she had tyring to find a cure for her illness. She was desperate! Then it happened. She had a reversal of thought! I COULD TOUCH HIM! She wasn't arrogant. She wasn't proud. She was at the end of her rope. If only I could touch Him.". Jesus said ...

Mark Carlson - Design Christian Church: April 2009
http://markcarlson.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 28, 2009. SHINE UP YOUR VISION. Over time, things that once excited you can become dull.if you don't take the time to put the shine back into them. Have you ever received any awards or trophies? For the first week or month you look at them often and keep them clear of dust. As time goes by, they become less significant and maybe even a nuisance. Vision should never be like that. Don't treat your vision like your old awards, shine it up! Friday, April 17, 2009. Friday, April 10, 2009. We've...

Mark Carlson - Design Christian Church: November 2009
http://markcarlson.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 26, 2009. I was able to share a short Thanksgiving talk in our city-wide Thanksgiving service last night. Here's the salient points. The not so salient other stuff consisted of a really corny Tday poem (people laughed) and a few ramblings and bramblings. We took our thoughts from Colossians 2:6-7 and focused on the last few words of verse 7. And let your living spill over into thanksgiving. (The Message). 1 Thankfulness is necessary to overcome disappointment in your life. Cabin at 950...
