Sunday Extra – July 7th, 2024
Hearing and Remembering
John Yates III, a long-time friend of LFM and the Ford family, shares today’s Sunday Extra message. Kevin Ford has worked with the staff in the past at John’s church in Raleigh, North Carolina, discovering and maximizing their strengths. Preaching in a series on the book of Exodus, he helps us see the cry of the people at the end of chapter two. The Bible says, “God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant” (Exodus 2:24 ESV). Enjoy this beautiful reminder of our God who hears and remembers.
An Attentive Person
Recently, Leighton Ford sat down with one of his long-time mentees, Ken Shigematsu, who pastors in Vancouver, British Columbia. They discussed the idea, “How do I become an attentive person?” At LFM, we love to help leaders become healthy, because we believe that only when they are consistently healthy can they help their ministries thrive and stay healthy. In order to have health, we have to look at how to care for ourselves. Listen to Leighton and Ken’s insightful discussion here.
Today, let’s pray for our pastors. Pray that they will live healthy, balanced lives. And ask the Lord to provide safe times, safe places, and safe people for them along their journey.
