Going Beyond Your Comfort Zone Prt. 2
February 4, 2009
Speaker: Adam Greenfield
This is our second lesson on “Going Beyond Your Comfort Zone.” God has not called us to be fearful but has given us a spirit of “power and love and self-control” (2Tim. 1:7). This week we look at what it means to be courageous and the importance of risking failure all to the glory of God. He is stretching us to go beyond what is comfortable in order for us to grow.
Getting Out of Your Comfort Zone

Do Hard Thing #1 is getting out of our comfort zones. God has created us to do great things in this life. Too often we get caught in routines that stifle the growth we desperately need. God wants to stretch us beyond our natural strengths and push us to do things that seem scary. He uses our weaknesses to show how glorious and mighty the God of the universe is. We get to participate in His unfolding plan with a promise that He will never leave us or forsake us.
Rebelling Against Low Expectations
January 7, 2009
Speaker: Adam Greenfield
This is the first in a series entitled Do Hard Things. These messages are inspired by the book written by Bret and Alex Harris called “Do Hard Things.” Our culture has extremely low expectations for teenagers. We say that teenagers are lazy, irresponsible, and rebellious; basically trouble. We see the teenage years as a long vacation because they are not ready for actual responsibility. But how have teenagers lived prior to the 20th and 21st centuries? More importantly, what does the Bible say about these people we call teenagers? Have our expectations become so low for this people group that we dishonor God and disserve our future leaders? We desire to answer these questions and more as we explore what God has for our teenagers and their parents. We are all called to live for the glory of God, and that command knows no age limit.
