July 22, 2012 - "Cleaning House" Sermon Series
Week 1 - Cleaning Out Our Emotional House
"Getting Rid of the Junk"
Get out the boxes and the broom! This Sunday we begin a 4-week sermon series called "Cleaning House" that asks us to consider whether our lives could benefit from a little spiritual,
emotional, and material “housecleaning”.
This week we'll focus on what needs to be cleaned out of our emotional house. Our scripture reading for the day is Ephesians 4:17-32 - Paul's exhortation to get rid of toxic emotions like bitterness, anger, malice, and unforgiveness. (You can read it here.) We'll talk about the damage such feelings can cause, as well as the good that can come from taking a push broom to those negative emotions.
What feelings are you carrying around that you no longer want or need?
What emotions are causing harm to yourself or to those around you? What’s the junk that’s shoved into the back
of your emotional closet that really needs to get packed up and put out to the
curb? Join us as we start making out our "must go" list.
See you on Sunday!
