I do more?<\/li>\n<li>Where does ambition come from?..Adam and Eve took a step down.<\/li>\n<li>The Holy Spirit\u00a0does not give ambition.\u00a0 The Holy Spirit gives a burden.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0As a leader, when we do things in our own strength we depleted, confused, and frustrated.<\/li>\n<li>Sometimes we can have a list of things to do for God that He did not intend to do through us.<\/li>\n<li>Jesus completed a passion because of a burden He placed in Him.<\/li>\n<li>Ambition has to be something to be stamped out before God’s will can be put in.<\/li>\n<li>Good things are one\u00a0“Oh” too many from being a God-thing.<\/li>\n<li>I wanted to be a homicide detective.\u00a0 I thought living in LA, homicide detection would be good job security.<\/li>\n<li>Do you know what you want with your life – His will.\u00a0 Do you know what you don’t want – Your’s.<\/li>\n<li>Our will rises and wants to have it own way during times of fear and intimidation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/timpeters.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/mattcarter1.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><img

and community.<\/li>\n<li>We want to engage in missional\u00a0community because of the love of Jesus Christ.<\/li>\n<li>The gospel of Jesus Christ is a message of a battle that is already won.<\/li>\n<li>Every other religion (other than Christianity)\u00a0is defined as rules of someone trying to please God.<\/li>\n<li>The gospel is God is pleased with you because of what Jesus has done for you.<\/li>\n<li>Religion says, “I obey because I can be accepted.”\u00a0 The gospel says, “I am accepted so I obey.”<\/li>\n<li>Are people following a religion we placed on them?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>How to know if your people are walking in Religion or the Freedom of the Gospel:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Are people confessing and repenting and being restored from their sin?\u00a0 The religious community runs from sin and church when they sin\u00a0because they fear the wrath of the church.<\/li>\n<li>For the people in your church does following Christ feel like a burden?<\/li>\n<li>What is the motivation for my people’s obedience?\u00a0 A gospel-centered repents and obeys because of the unimaginable kindness the Lord displayed on the cross.<\/li>\n<li>What is the spiritual temperature of the worship of my church?<\/li>\n<li>The community of faith that has been impacted by the gospel knows the gospel is never powerful through them if the gospel is not powerful in them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If Jesus is not the center of your church, He says, “I am removing my manifest presence from your church.”\u00a0 The last thing I want to do is pastor a church that does not have the presence of Jesus.<\/p>\n<p>If you love your mission more than your Savior, He will not be part of your mission.<\/p>\n<p>Unbelivable.\u00a0 More sessions to follow.<\/p>\n<p>As a
