Suffering: It won't last forever but we will! 1. Now for a season...you are in heaviness - 1 Pt. 1:6 2. After you have suffering a while - 1 Pt. 5:10 3. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment - 2 Cor. 4:17. Vance Havner sermon outline

We have been saved out of the world; we still must live in the world; we are not of the world; we have been saved to go back into the world to win others out of it, and that is the only business we have in the world!

Sin has gotten man into more trouble than science can get him out of.

The Bible records one long continued clash between institutionalized religion and the prophet. Today religion was never more organized, but prophets are scarce. John the Baptist is still no favorite in the courts of Herod.

A picture of Christ was hung in the back of the pulpit. When the minister rose to speak one Sunday morning, a little boy asked his mother, "Mother, who is that man who stands so we can't see Jesus?"

America is fractured and fragmented into hundreds of little groups wanting their own rights while nobody seems to care what happens to the country. A house divided against itself cannot stand.

Sometimes we drive the automobile into the repair shop and say, "Check the motor." It is time we church workers drove into God's repair shop and asked Him to "check the motive." Why do you do what you do in church?

The vancehavner.com website has been updated and you can once again find the devotion and quote of the day. Sorry for the delay but we are back up and running.

We've recently started posting again to the @ReFRESHSBC and @RevRonDunn follow these accounts for quotes from conferences, sermons and much more.

You can listen to sermons by Vance Havner on the podcast as well as view materials on vancehavner.com

We are back up and posting on the Vance Havner facebook page. Usually there are 5-7 posts a week. Follow along. This 20th century prophet said more in one sentence than most of us can say in 3 pages.

Content from Vance Havner including articles, quotes, devotionals + podcasts is available on VanceHavner.com. As Sherwood Church transitions from one pastor to another, the church will no longer post on this account. Pastor Michael Catt may occasionally post some content.

Only when a man comes to the end of his own little inch does he reach the beginning of God’s infinity. Man’s extremity is God’s opportunity.

Most of us make the mistake of trying to change our circumstances instead of changing ourselves.

Living by proxy: We don’t go direct to the garden of life for our food; we live on mental and spiritual canned... fb.me/Z68IufsK

Negative thoughts are the germs of the spiritual life that infect us with poisons that undermine our integrity and destroy our soul health.

God help us to keep our childlike sense of wonder. May we rise every morning wondering what God will do today.
