Midweek // Seven Scenes: The Family God Chose by First Baptist Amarillo

Hebrews 13:7–14: The writer to the Hebrews wants his people to "stay the course" by following the faithful, staying clear of debris, and fixing their eyes on hope.
Joshua 1:1-7: God calls on Joshua to persevere into the Promised Land. Facing the death of Moses, Joshua had big shoes to fill. Individually and as a church family, we must press on.

Genesis 1:1: In part 1 of our series, Genesis reminds us that this is God’s world, and before anything else - before your job, your name, your plans - you're a tenant in someone else's good and holy world.”

James 5:7-11: Practicing practical ways to realize God’s presence and promises of better things to come.
Mark 2:14-17: While Matthew, the tax collector, was despised by other Jews as a sell-out to Rome, Jesus saw the best in the worst. Unbelievably, Jesus turned the lowest of the low, a tax-gatherer, into one of His disciples. Shunning the traditions of the day, He sat down at the table with Matthew and his friends.

Jeremiah 6:16: At every crossroads in life, God invites us to choose His way, an ancient path that leads to rest.
Luke 23:33-46: We examine the last sayings of Christ as He dies on the cross - words of despair, forgiveness, hope, need, care, trust, and acceptance.

2 Corinthians 3:1-6: You do not have to write your own letter of recommendation. Christ has already written one - in you.

John 1 :43-51: We might criticize Nathanael for questioning Jesus' validity as the Messiah; however, Nathanael's willingness to be vulnerable in his doubt and to present an honest question leads to a clearer, fuller understanding of who Jesus is and a stronger faith in the end.
2 Kings 20:1-11: Hezekiah is told to “get his house in order” because death is imminent. The good king responds in prayer, as God extends his life 15 more years. God spares Hezekiah from death and from the Assyrians. This sermon calls upon all of us to set our houses in order.
In Ecclesiastes 4:7–12, we find that a life devoted solely to oneself ends in emptiness, while true meaning is found in companionship. As this relates to the good news of Jesus, we discover how Christ and the church provide the companionship we were created to enjoy.

Matthew 12:22-29: When you see the peace and power that Jesus brings, you know he is the King. And where you find the King, there you find God’s kingdom.
Genesis 37:18-24: Playing on the story of Joseph, tracing the highs and lows of his life, this sermon concludes that we are in no position to determine whether the events in our life are “good luck or bad luck.” Only God, who has an eternal view, knows the end of our journey.
