  • Prayer Journal March 2019
    Prayer Journal March 2019 March 2019 Dear Southside Family, Welcome to Practicing God’s Presence in Prayer! This Journal has been prayerfully prepared to assist you and your family on the journey. There are 5 daily lessons for each of the three weeks (I think that still equals 15!). You can do them individually, with your spouse or as a family. You’ll need your Bible, a pen (or favorite electronic device) and a heart to find out more about prayer. If these truths are discovered, understood and applied, our prayer lives can be transformed, our spiritual growth can be accelerated and our lives and relationships changed! God is speaking. He desires to be more than a part of our life – He is life itself. May we learn how we can regularly, intentionally remain in His presence throughout the day through an attitude of prayer. Each day, read the suggested Bible passages and answer the questions. Use the KidConnect Corner with your kids or grandkids. Space has been given for you to record your thoughts and impressions from the Lord each day. Customize the content and make this fit for you and your family. Each day’s lesson will take about 20 minutes. Our goal is to become stronger in our walk with God by developing healthy spiritual habits. Don’t be overwhelmed. Take the Practicing God’s Presence in Prayer experience one day at a time! If you miss a day or two, don’t panic! Make them up when you have the opportunity. It’s my hope and intent that our whole Southside family (children, youth and adults) will be discussing the topics in KidConnect, Home Groups, the Sunday morning messages and in our homes.

These emanations from God produce new sounds that invariably when captured by true worshippers become the songs we arrange to communicate the heart of our heavenly Father. In this respect we sing a new song unto the Lord. Eternal Sound is a vehicle that God has created in our day to communicate the sounds of the season. They are true worshippers who do not just simply sing the song of the Lord but who have become the song that they sing.

  • Thesis Title Goes Here
    The Temple, the Spirit and the People of the Presence of God: Examining Critical Options for a Pentecostal Ecclesiology by Robert Brian Robson A thesis submitted to Wycliffe College and the Theology Department of the Toronto School of Theology in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Theology awarded by the University of St. Michael’s College © Copyright by Robert Brian Robson 2012 The Temple, the Spirit and the People of God’s Presence: Examining Critical Options for a Pentecostal Ecclesiology Robert Brian Robson Doctor of Philosophy in Theology University of St. Michael’s College 2012 Abstract Ecclesiology remains recognized as an underdeveloped area within the burgeoning field of Pentecostal theology, even as more voices are addressing it. This thesis explores the more significant proposals toward Pentecostal ecclesiology offered by various scholars, and then offers a constructive proposal: the church as the People of the manifest Presence of the Tri-une God. In this thesis, I propose to construct a distinct but ecumenically-friendly Pentecostal ecclesiology based upon the theological concept of the church as the People of God’s Presence. The church is constituted by the “manifest” presence of the Holy Spirit among people whom the Spirit gathers, empowers and sends out in mission to the world. This ecclesiology builds specifically upon the description of a “third-stream of Christian tradition” first offered by Bishop Lesslie Newbigin in 1952. It is this very concept of the “recognizable” presence of the Holy Spirit “with power” as the defining constitution of the church which should inform a uniquely Pentecostal ecclesiology.

  • Seek. Trust. Follow
    Seek. Trust. Follow. Devotional Guide For the Lenten Journey 2020 First Baptist Church, Athens, Georgia SEEK. TRUST. FOLLOW. Devotions for The Lenten Journey 2020 FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH ATHENS, GEORGIA INTRODUCTION Seek. Trust. Follow. The theme for our Lenten devotion, and for our church’s season of Lenten observance serves as invitation. The invitation is to enter the daily spiritual discipline, open yourself to the scriptures, avail yourself of worship opportunities, and engage in study and dialogue with others in the community of faith. As one might walk or hike a trail in search of a hoped-for discovery of beauty and grandeur of God’s creation, the daily journey of the Lenten discipline intends to bring us to a place of deeper spiritual discovery and awakening. No doubt surprises beyond expectations await. How can we know what to expect when walking a path never taken previously? To be honest, just as trail hiking includes danger and risk, the spiritual journey may also bring us into contact with unanswerable questions, confront us with challenging decisions, and not always be a gentle stroll. Therefore, be aware and alert. Have respect for the environment, and patience with the distance. Rest when weary. Pause in moments of grace and peace. Keep your eye on the path in front of you. Wise hikers use a guide of some kind. Drawing upon the knowledge of those who have traveled the path before, the use of maps, journals, or even a personal trail guide provides information that can be trusted. I suppose one could argue for more than one appropriate order of these three words: Seek, Trust, Follow.

  • Introduction of Weekend Parking Fees in CBD Total Number of Submitters
    Category Name: Introduction of Weekend Parking Fees in CBD Total number of submitters: 599 Question: Do you agree with the proposal? Number of submitters who Decision Sought % selected this option Yes 46 7.68% No 553 92.32% Submitters for this question No 1 - Jynelle Sullivan: I work at an accommodation facility in Wellington's CBD. We get many people who travel through Wellington stating that parking here and costs are far too expensive and inconvenient as it is - they appreciate it being free parking on weekends and not having to worry about their vehicle receiving a ticket or being towed. I pay for parking in the city during the week for work, that is already a hassle when you limit parking times to 2 hours maximum. We also appreciate having free parking in the city during weekends, it adds to the enjoyment of being able to explore the very city we live in without having the worry. It seems like everyone is discouraged in owning a vehicle here that can be charged for no matter where you end up parking. I feel sorry for residents who have to pay just to have a car on the side of the road outside their home! Thanks for hearing my thoughts on your proposed weekend parking fees in the CBD. No 2 - Gina Rennie: I have a resident permit , and if you guys decide to start charging weekend fees,everyone that visits the city will start using all the coupon parking. This will mean us residents in Mount Victoria will lose our chance on getting parks .So it is a stupid idea to start charging.
