Avengers Assemble! Agent Coulson's Lesson on Christ!

Sally Storie Interview :

Memory Verse :

John 3:16

New Living Translation (NLT)

 “For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.

Doe Doe and The Separation of Sin (An Object Lesson about Unity and Salvation) :

Doe Doe shows the Lakewood kids what the power of sacrifice creates for those around it.

Bible Lesson : 

The Diverse 12 Diciples and Christ's Sacrifice that brought them together

In the Avengers movie Phil Coulson is the catalyst that brought "earths mightiest heroes" together. You might have expected it to instead be one of the more powerful players, but instead it was just a man.  The Israelites expected the Christ to be so much more 'amazing' then what they initially saw in Jesus.  He should have been a powerful warrior that became their king, instead he was a carpenter that talked a bunch, and then died.  One real power that Jesus had was His ability to bring the diverse together.  His disciples were not all fisherman, nor were they all tax collectors, or either just good men.  They came from all walks of life, and somehow Jesus brought them all together for ONE cause.  Where His death may have scattered them, His resurrection empowered them and guided them to the Holy Spirit which immediately spoke to all... regardless of language barriers.

ALOHA!!! Back 2 School Bash 2012!

 We are excited to share updates on our first ever Back 2 School Bash!

We had such a great turn out and we are so pleased with how things went.

Our church congregation, along with others came together and donated over 35 backpacks to give away to kids at our service!!!  Thank you to those of you who donated and who prayed for our ministry for your amazing support. We are eternally grateful!

We had a blast playing games outside, followed by a great dinner.  As soon as everyone finished eating we kicked out our awesome service showcasing our talented ministry team, and bringing God all of the glory.

We sang songs and met lots of fun characters throughout the night, and followed up with an amazingly encouraging word from Pastor Derek.

We counted 27 children who responded to the call that night to believe in Jesus and ask Him to walk with them and live in their hearts.

Praise GOD!

Overall, we call this a HUGE success and we give God ALL of the glory. We couldn't be who we are without Him, and without our support from our church.  We thrive because we have many intercessors standing behind us.

Want to check out some of the things we did during our Back to School Bash?

Check out this video.  It's a little lengthy but I promise you won't regret watching it!

Avengers Assemble! The Incredible Hulk's Lesson on Christ!

Sally Storie Interview :

Memory Verse :

 2 Timothy 3:16

New International Version (NIV)

All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,

Pastor Derek and The Musical Balloon (An Object Lesson about Anger) :

Pastor Derek talks about Anger and how we can learn from the way Jesus used it.

Bible Lesson : 

Money Tables .. 

Mark 11:15–19, Matthew 21:12–17, Luke 19:45–48, John 2:13–16 (Specifically Matthew)

Interesting Tidbits

http://bible.us/Jas1.20.NLT Human anger does not produce the righteousness God desires. So get rid of all the filth and evil in your lives, and humbly accept the word God has planted in your hearts, for it has the power to save your souls. 

The Incredible Hulk is arguably one of the strongest superheros out there, but his problem is with his control of it.  Having the right reign on our emotions is a good thing, Christ showed an interesting example of this when He overturned the moneychangers tables in the temple.  So often Jesus showed love and compassion to all He came into contact, it is almost jeering to then read about Him throwing what we may consider to be a temper tantrum, but if we really look at His purpose we understand that Christ had control.  He was forcefully removing the things that did not belong in the temple to create room for the things that did, those blind and lame - in need of healing.  We can do the same, instead of bottling the anger and letting it cause us to explode, we can find how to route it and let God mold it into something that blesses another instead!

Avengers Assemble! Iron Man's Lesson on Christ!

Sally Storie Interview :

Memory Verse :

Proverbs 3:5-6 

New International Version (NIV)

Trust in the Lord with all your heart
    and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways submit to him,
    and he will make your paths straight.

Pastor Derek and The 'easy' Race (An Object Lesson about Guarding Your Heart) :

 Pastor Derek showed the Lakewood kids what it can mean to have a protected heart... with a remote control race car?


Bible Lesson : 

Matthew 4

It was simple to see that Iron Man had some kind of 'heart' protection that did not allow Loki to take over his mind.  Jesus showed us all how that really works when he went into the desert to be tested by Satan.  In each temptation of Satan, Jesus did not exert power or strength - only defense. He turned away everything with just a few of God's words.  We can do the same and the more we know about God and His word the better we can do it!  Study and create a protected heart that cannot be controlled by the evil one.

Avengers Assemble! Black Widow's Lesson on Christ!

Sally Storie Interview :

Memory Verse :

 2 Corinthians 5:17 

New International Version (NIV)

 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!

Doe Doe and The Mischevious Card (An Object Lesson on Winning and Losing) :

 Doe Doe has a problem with one of his cards... how will he deal with this problem... will the card win... or lose?


Bible Lesson : 

Matt. 27- ... , Mark 15- ... , Luke 23- ... , John 19- ...

Black Widow seemed to have an amazing ability to look as if she was losing and completely turn it around, I guess a good spy really knows how to get information.  Our God has this ability as well in the moment of the crucifixion it seems that the greatest blow of defeat is coming, yet without that blow... we all would have lost. And as well the same occurs in the moment of each of our salvations.  In act of 'losing' our life, we gain LIFE more abundantly through Christ Jesus!  It is amazing the way that God works in our lives!
