God’s Idea of Success

Our new Sunday School series focuses on Success!  Success is a great word.  Everyone wants it, but so many folks have no idea how to experience it God’s way.  I can’t promise you all the answers, but I can promise you we’ll take an honest look at what God’s Word has to say about success.

Here’s a recap of what we’ve talked about so far:

What is God’s idea of success?
Joshua 1:7, Proverbs 2:7, Hebrews 12:7, 2 Peter 3:11

Is God against us being successful in the world’s eyes?
Philippians 4:19, 1 Corinthians 4:2, Matthew 25:14-30

What are the dangers of chasing worldly success?
1 Timothy 6:10, Hebrews 13:5, Ecclesiastes 5:10, Hebrews 12:1

This is the basis for everything else.  Our first specific piece of the success puzzle is CAREER. We just scratched the surface of this part today (1/11/2015).

CAREER:

The basic question is “How do I decide what I want to do?”  Here are the verses we started on this morning:  Proverbs 3:5-6, Ecclesiastes 5:10, 9:10, Psalm 119:148, Matthew 6:34, Revelation 3:7, Proverbs 20:5, 24:27.

Let me know what you think.
