When Good Things Become God: Comfort and Security | November 26, 2023Derry Long | Guest Speaker\nPhilippians 4:10-13 (NIV)\u2018I rejoice greatly in the Lord that at last you renewed your concern for me indeed, you were concerned, but you had no opportunity to show it. I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content in whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength.\u2019\nPsalm 23:1 (Message)\u2018God, my shepherd, I don\u2019t need anything. You have bedded me down in lush meadows, you find me quiet pools to drink from.\u2019 Adventure: An activity with an unknown outcome.\nReflection Questions:\n1) Are comfort and safety bad? Matthew 8:20, \u2018Jesus replied, \u2018 ...the Son of Man has no place to lay his head.\u2019 (NIV)\n2) What pursuits may require that we sacrifice our comfort and safety? Matthew 10:39, \u2018Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it.\u2019 (NIV)\n3) Do you have a calling that may stretch beyond the borders of your comfort and security? Luke 14: 28,29, \u2018Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won\u2019t you first sit down and estimate the cost. . .\u2019 (NIV)\nNext Steps:\nComplete the Connect Card to receive more information, have us pray for you, or to ask us any question: http://journeybozeman.com/connectcardWant to worship through giving and support the ministry of Journey Church: https://journeybozeman.com/giveDownload our app: https://journeybozeman.com/app Join our Facebook Group to stay connected throughout the week: https://facebook.com/groups/JourneyChurchBozemanGet your children connected to our children's ministry, Base Camp: https://journeybozeman.com/childrenOur Student Ministry is for High School and Middle School students: https://journeybozeman.com/studentsSubscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/JourneyChurchBozemanNotes Page: https://journeybozeman.com/sermons/notes/2023.11.26.pdf
