Kingdom Life: Book review: Jesus + Nothing = Everything
http://mitchellshiver.blogspot.com/2011/12/book-review-jesus-nothing-everything.html
God Life. Leadership. Monday, December 26, 2011. Book review: Jesus Nothing = Everything. This is the first book I purchased on my new Amazon Kindle. I finished it in two days. I have written about Tullian Tchividjian's other book I read here. I was learning the hard way that the gospel alone can free us from our addiction to being liked—that Jesus measured up for us so that we wouldn’t have to live under the enslaving pressure of measuring up for others.". Legalism happens when what we need to do, not w...

http://mitchellshiver.blogspot.com/2012/10/family-group-suwanee.html
God Life. Leadership. Tuesday, October 16, 2012. Family Group - Suwanee. Next week our friend Amanda Brown will be with us to share about her trip to Uganda in 2013. Our "Family Group" will bless Amanda with an initial gift and then support her monthly next year. She will become our first missionary:) I am excited about the group and where God is leading it. My only goal is to follow the promptings of God and step through open doors. I'm having a blast right now. So, why do I share this? Lets be honest&#...

Kingdom Life: Decisions, Decisions
http://mitchellshiver.blogspot.com/2012/08/decisions-decisions.html
God Life. Leadership. Friday, August 10, 2012. One of the frequent questions I get asked as a pastor or I hear people discussing is, "How do I know the will of God? It may be phrased differently by some, such as "does God want me to do? Does God want me to move to this city? These are really important decisions, no doubt. But I think we get it wrong when we are afraid to make a decision because we might mess up God's plan. Let me relieve you of some stress:. Nothing gets in the way of God's plan. Verse 1...

Kingdom Life: Faith & Circumstance
http://mitchellshiver.blogspot.com/2012/09/faith-circumstance.html
God Life. Leadership. Tuesday, September 11, 2012. That day when evening came, he said to his disciples, “Let us go over to the other side.”. Leaving the crowd behind, they took him along, just as he was, in the boat. There were also other boats with him. A furious squall came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped. Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, “Teacher, don’t you care if we drown? Do you still have no faith? This sto...

Pastor's Perspective: July 2013
http://fccpastorsperspective.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
The semi-cogent ramblings of a Jesus devotee. Thursday, July 25, 2013. Pastor's Perspective - God Knows Your Name. As mentioned, this was Emma’s first time flying alone. She was a bit anxious and so were we. My wife Michelle was able to take her personally to her departing gate in Sacramento. We texted Emma as she settled into her seat to offer our best parental assurance; but, as all frequent flyers know, those electronic devices don’t stay on very long! Friends, God knows your. And He still loves you a...

Pastor's Perspective: Pastor's Perspective - Write Your Verse!
http://fccpastorsperspective.blogspot.com/2014/05/pastors-perspective-write-your-verse.html
The semi-cogent ramblings of a Jesus devotee. Friday, May 2, 2014. Pastor's Perspective - Write Your Verse! Shamgar got only one verse. Sure, he gets a glancing mention a few chapters later, but his contribution is described in just one verse. Gideon got THREE chapters! So, who was this guy – this ‘one-verse-wonder’? ONE verse and AMBIGUITY! All we know is that on one day ‘Johnny-One-Verse’ (whoever he was! Here’s what I want you to get. For doing something unreasonable and impossible for God’s glo...

Pastor's Perspective: Pastor's Perspective - What DO You Do?
http://fccpastorsperspective.blogspot.com/2013/10/pastors-perspective-what-do-you-do.html
The semi-cogent ramblings of a Jesus devotee. Tuesday, October 22, 2013. Pastor's Perspective - What DO You Do? In the early 80’s when MTV was barely standing up in the crib, and actually played music videos, a rather bizarre British music artist named Adam Ant had a popular video for his song ‘Goody Two Shoes’. The catchy chorus included the lyric, ‘Don’t drink. Don’t smoke. What do you do? I could have been one of the Flying Wallendas! Thankfully, through God’s patience, grace and numerous humbli...

Pastor's Perspective: March 2013
http://fccpastorsperspective.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
The semi-cogent ramblings of a Jesus devotee. Friday, March 29, 2013. Pastor's Perspective - RESCUED! You never know what a day will bring. Suddenly it was announced that one of our dear church partner’s house was on fire! By God’s kindness nobody was in the home at the time, so we had reason to smile and see His divine fingerprints. He knows how to bring immeasurable blessing out of the obvious bad. I thought a lot about that scene the last 24 hours, especially in lieu of Good Friday. As much as I’...
