Some highlights from David Totman’s Messages:

  • Friday Night “Pursuing God”
    • “The righteous pursue a relationship with God and enjoy its results.” 
    • “Can I describe my relationship with God as a ‘pursuit?'”
    • “The wise person chooses to ‘plant’ themselves near God.  The foolish person chooses the wisdom of the world and distances themselves far from God.”
    • The tree in Psalm 1 was planted ‘intentionally’ by the streams of water.  It was no accident.  
    • “Being blessed is a result of choosing the right path.  There is a blessing that comes from choosing to place ourselves right next to God.” 
  • Sunday morning “The Power of Influence”
    • “There is a lot of grey in our society today.” 
    • What are the major influences in my life?  We must be discerning about our sources of influence.
    • The righteous person avoids sinful influences.
    • The righteous person desires God’s influence.
    • “Is what is coming through your phone influencing you in a positive way?”
