November 10, 2019: Sometimes, we cause the storm. Sometimes, others start the storm, and we have to endure it, too. Sometimes, the storm just is. In the Bible, God reveals how he uses storms in our live to sanctify us and glorify himself.
Paradoxically, sometimes the toughest part of a storm is the silence after the storm is finished. The battle is history. The issues are done. What, now? Today’s message is the second in a four-week series called, Storm Strong, where Pastor Greg Byman unpack principles of how God lovingly shepherds us through the storms of life. Pastor's notes

Pastor's notes
By Pastor Greg Byman
St Joe Community Church October 20, 2019 How hard is it for you to apologize? For a slave named Onesimus, it was not just hard, but gravely dangerous. Almost 50 percent of ancient Rome's population was in slavery, and the empire maintained this status quo through brutal punishment for run-away slaves. After Onesimus came to faith in Christ, could he be reconciled to his Christ-proclaiming master? The Apostle Paul believed so, and in coming along Onesimus as an advocate, gave the world a precious gift in his letter to Philemon, one of the shortest books in the Bible but one of the most historically poignant documents explaining reconciliation and forgiveness in Christian theology.

In Mark chapter 4, Jesus shares a parable of spreading seeds in a field where some grew and others did not, and for both the Christian and non-Christian, life can be viewed in a series of fields. Field #1, “Connection,” where believers seek to share the good news of Jesus Christ, the “gospel”, with unbelievers. Field #2, “Rescue,” is where believers are actively sharing the gospel with unbelievers who want to hear it. Field #3, “Equip” is where older believers help younger believers grow spiritually. Field #4, “Launch” is where believers are returning back to Field #1.
What field are you in today? Pastor's Notes

A: author B: Bible book I: Issue S: Series Many sermons in the St. Joe archive are machine-transcribed. St. Joe is presently transcribing its entire sermon library to render its content more easily accessible to the deaf and hard of hearing, those who speak English as a second language, and to make the sermon content searchable for everybody. While machine transcription makes this logistically and financially more viable, accuracy is sometimes sacrificed. St. Joe is gradually replacing machine transcription with human transcription as time and financial resources allow. Each sermon costs between $30 to $60 to transcribe. If you would like to help see the preached Word of God become accessible to more people, please consider an investment in the St. Joe ministry through the PayPal platform by sending funds to StJoeOnlineGiving@gmail.com, or click here.
