  • Week Five: the Character and Power of the Church
    NO LIMITS Building more than ourselves Celebration Church Pastors Bryan McDevitt & Tom Bartlett Daily Devotionals Week 5 Week Five: The character and power of the church. WEEK FIVE DAY 1 WORD About the ninth hour of the day he saw clearly in a vision an angel of God come in and say to him, “Cornelius.” And he stared at him in terror and said, “What is it, Lord?” And he said to him, “Your prayers and your alms have ascended as a memorial before God.” Acts 10:3-4 (ESV) Today’s encouraging word: Over the years I’ve encountered some amazing stories about people who came to know the Lord. Growing up in a strong missionary-minded church, our church would annually would host a mission’s conference with speakers each night and presentations from dozens of ministries and missionaries from around the world. Statements such as this one by Isobel Kuhn would stir my heart, “I believe that in each generation God has called enough men and women to evangelize all the yet unreached tribes of the earth. It is not God who does not call. It is man who will not respond!” (Missionary to China and Thailand). My heart would be stirred and challenged to be that man to go. Another inspirational story I recall was from a man who was bringing the gospel to the furthest reaches of the globe, to people groups with no gospel witness. He would go into these remote places, befriend them, learn their language, and then share the Good News of Jesus.

    THE 59TH ANNUAL GRAMMY AWARDS BEST COUNTRY SONG Lambert took center stage at the iHeart Country Festival in “Blue Ain’t Your Color” Austin in April. KEITH URBAN Songwriters Clint Lagerberg, Hillary Lindsey, Steven Lee Olsen This fresh spin on barroom seduction, the fourth single from Urban’s Ripcord album, is the result of a collaboration between songwriting veteran Hillary Lindsey (who won the category in February with Little Big Town’s “Girl Crush,” which she co-wrote with Lori McKenna and Liz Rose) and relative newcomers Steven Lee Olsen and Clint Lagerberg. And though the tune was an aesthetic departure for Urban, who recorded it as a drum machine-driven waltz, it has spent six weeks (and counting) at No. 1 on Hot Country Songs and became the artist’s 18th top 40 hit on the Hot 100. “Die a Happy Man” THOMAS RHETT Songwriters Sean Douglas, Thomas Rhett, Joe Spargur Rhett dedicated this designed-for-frst- artist recruited pop specialists Sean “Vice” dances track to his wife, Lauren (who Douglas (Nick Jonas, David Guetta) and MIRANDA LAMBERT co-stars with him in the video), but it Joe Spargur (Fifth Harmony, Jason Derulo) Songwriters Miranda Lambert, Shane resonated with romantic country fans to co-write the single.
