Real Change

As we look to move into a new house this weekend, our family can't help but talk about change.  The kids are excited that they get their own rooms, for a change.  Will and Ryann are excited about changing schools.  Amy and I of course, will be looking at changing many of our current routines that we have been accustomed to in Tiffin over the last 4 years.  The new move even affects Mom because for the first time in her life, she will park in an attached garage.  This Sunday, I will be preaching on how true repentance must always bring change, in a message titled 'Stirred, but Not Changed.'  For too long, Christians have been stirred by a convicting message or a prophetic word but they fail to make a "Real Change", repent, and turn from the sin or temptation in their life.  It does the believer no good to feel sorry for themselves in the natural.

2 Corinthians 7:10 (NIV) Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death.
