Sharpening Your Axe

This post was written by Larry Davis, a pastor at Oak Ridge Baptist Church in Salisbury, MD.

Check out this week's Bible Passage: Ecclesiastes 10:10

No matter where you serve in the Worship/Arts Ministry, you have a specific and important skill that you bring to the table. While many times hard work is needed, greater and growing skills help us to be more effective according to Ecc. 10:10. If we ever arrive at a place where are skills do not need sharpening one of two things has happened: we have become arrogant or we are dead.

This week check out the VIDEO BLOG and read the passage above, thinking about what you need to do to sharpen your skills in your area of ministry. What can you do to help others sharpen theirs? Do you have a plan for sharpening yours? How is it going?

Come ready for a discussion and don’t forget about this week’s worship conference! This week’s conference will be an important part of how God will sharpen you within this worship ministry.

Looking forward to hanging out with you Thursday, Friday and Saturday night!

Encouragement

This post was written by Larry Davis, a pastor at Oak Ridge Baptist Church in Salisbury, MD.  

Read this week's Bible Passages: Proverbs 15:22 & Ephesians 4:14-16

Throughout my life I have had certain people who have encouraged me and had great impact on my spiritual journey. As I thought about them this week, I was reminded of the two scripture passages linked above that guided the wisdom they used to pierce my heart to be more like Jesus.
