Images From A Sunday At Victory Life Christian Ministries

Here are images shot from our extra-special Sunday (Jan. 9) afternoon service at Victory Life Christian Ministries in Big Rapids, Michigan.

Sunday was home to yet another powerful service that kicked off Affirm 2011 and featured Prophetess Doriane Parker from Kingdom Life Ministries in Grand Rapids. Sunday's service was nothing short of amazing. And, best of all, it was just the start of Affirm 2011.

If you were not there you missed something special.

With that, check out these images from Sunday service at V-Life:

The Master Christmas List


The Master Christmas List

I'm just thinking about how we go crazy buying one another gifts for Jesus' birthday and I'm wondering - what are you giving Jesus for His birthday? This year, take advantage of the opportunity to give Him a present?

What's on His list you ask? Here are the top 10 items on His Christmas list:
  1. Your heart
  2. Your talents
  3. Your time
  4. Your effort
  5. Your service
  6. Your praise
  7. Your worship
  8. Your faith
  9. Your obedience
  10. He wants you!
But, understand - we can never beat Him giving. Even on His birthday, He is a better giver than we are. I challenge you today to remember, Jesus is the reason for the season. What are you going to give Him for His birthday this year?

Pictures from the Christmas Party

We decorated Christmas cookies, played carnival games, painted decorations, got our faces painted, ate some snacks, redeemed tickets for prizes and played family games! Some just enjoyed watching :-)

As you view the pictures of the Christmas celebration held for the children, take time to thank our wonderful volunteers. Many gave their time during a week of final exams! They were a wonderful group to work with and made the time enjoyable for all. At times I didn't know who had more fun, the children on the adults. Thank God for fellowship and generosity at VLife!

Highlights from Connect Christmas Party

We had a great time at the Connect Christmas Party last night. It's nice to get together and just have pure fun. My highlights of the night were playing Min. Darius' game and getting mega tickets (I ended up with around 215 tickets and a lot of fun prizes). In addition, it would have to be the cakewalk - it came down to Langston and I. After destroying the children we prevailed as the last two standing and had a tough fight to the finish - I was the last person sitting - which (in this homemade, manipulative version of the game out of the mind of Sis. Theresa) actually made me the loser. But, that's okay - he who endures to the end shall be saved. All of the first eliminated received a prize and a cupcake, but I kept my dignity. lol

Tell me - what was the highlight of the Christmas party for you?

Testify

Revelation 12:10-11 (NIV) 10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: “Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down. 11 They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony;


Connect was a great experience last night. We learned about the purpose of testimonies and then we shared testimonies. As Overcomers, we understand that one of our tools to overcoming is the word of our testimony. As I listened to the various testimonies, I was overwhelmed with how God has brought so many through so much and strategically aligned us and called us together to be a body of believers by the name of Victory Life Christian Ministries!

People have been released from bondages of prison, of abuse, of fear, of loneliness, of sin, of sickness, of mindsets and have risen up to progress and be who God has called them to be. In that session last night, I gained further insight and understanding as to why God didn't allow me to call the people at Victory Life members - we're more than that - we are Overcomers!

Now, I challenge you - share your testimony - but, even more than that - be a testimony. Prove the truth of God; declare His goodness; be evidence of His existence; be the glory of God - be an Overcomer! In short - TESTIFY!

Service 100

This Sunday will be our 100th Sunday service. It's amazing to me how quickly time flies. It has been a great ride! God has blessed me to pastor a phenomenal group of individuals who have grown 2gether into a wonderful family of brothers and sisters. Now, we are quickly approaching the end of the 2nd year and I am excited about what is ahead. We're preparing for our two year anniversary celebration which will be entitled Affirm 2011.

I'm excited about 2011 - it's a year when God will Affirm the ministry and the Overcomers. To Affirm is to further confirm His plan - to further establish us - to strengthen us - to release new facts to us - to show the world that we're the truth - to say yes to - to show agreement - to verify - to answer positively - to support - to encourage! Whew - I'm getting excited just thinking about this. I don't know if you all are ready for what God is about to do...

But, here we are still in 2010 - in the season of Growth. The Growth is not over yet - He's still growing us, maturing us, taking us higher, making us stronger. We've got one last month - ready, set, let's grow!

Images From A Sunday At Victory Life Christian Ministries

Here are images I shot that I wanted to share from our special Sunday (Nov. 28) service at Victory Life Christian Ministries in Big Rapids, Michigan.

Sunday was home to yet another powerful service led by Pastor Razel Jones at Victory Life over the weekend as the message was "Promote Me" for Overcomers.

Review Psalm 75: 1-10 for your Bible scripture.

With that now said, check out the latest images of V-Life:
