Change

On Sunday, November 13 at Sevier Heights Baptist Church, our Senior Pastor Hollie Miller spoke on the topic of change from Genesis 15:1-21. You can view the message here: http://player.vimeo.com/video/32149916.

The outline:
Change is often necessary; we need to accept it- Exodus 3:1-8; Exodus chapters 3-15.
Change is never easy; we need to endure it with patience- Exodus 16: 1-3; Numbers 11
Change is usually frightening; we need to face it with faith- Numbers 13:26- 14:4
Change is ultimately rewarding; we need to embrace it with joy- Joshua 1 & 2

Here's a great statement from the sermon in which Pastor Miller referenced the children of Israel's reluctance to enter the Promised Land after the 10 of the 12 scouts (not Joshua and Caleb who years later did ultimately reach the Promised Land) thought it too dangerous to proceed: "When you don't act in faith, you will lose opportunities that may never come again".
