http://theministrypodcast.com This one is coming to you a hair later than usual, but it's worth the wait. I have spent so much of my time flying my drone around the county to film the flooding neighborhoods for friends of mine. I have heard from so many people that have had to evacuate due to the flooding and they had no idea if their homes were flooded or not. Praise God that I have the resources to help show them their homes and show people the places that weren't safe to drive. Because we were a Federal Disaster area we were not able to podcast like normal so I put together some testimonies from my home church. We will be back in the swing of things next week so see you next week.

January means new beginnings and enthusiasm. What does the new year mean to you? 

One of the things that it means to me is a new chance for growth and raising my standards. It also means that I see people getting burned out from trying to lose too much weight or exercising too much. Does that mean that they weren't serious about it? Does it mean that they were lying? I don't think so. 

I think most people mean well when they set their resolutions and that they don't know how to pace themselves. Join us today as we talk about new goals and revising our plans.

3 John 1:2 Beloved, I wish above all things that you may prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers. 

Today we are talking about the Apple Watch that I was given for my birthday and the reason I like it so much. To be clear I don't think you need one, but it is a fun gadget to have. I have lost weight since I started using the Apple Watch and my primary use of it has been to keep track of my fitness. 

As always we would love to hear from you so email me at marco@theministrypodcast.com

I am getting schooled while training in the art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and my face is bearing the marks of it. However, the more I sweat and the more I get burned the faster I learn and the farther I can go. The bible says do not grow weary in doing good. So keep moving.

Stop talking already. Start doing. The world is full of people with plans that they swear they will start tomorrow or the moment that they find the right timing. There will always be reasons not to pursue your dreams. Stop wasting time and do something that matters.

Ps 139
Where can I go that your spirit won't find me
Where can I run from your scent in the air

If I made my bed in hell and laid in the fire
In the weeping swells I know your there

Just lead me in your hands I'm held so well
Just leave me in your hands I'm held so well

And I'll go yes I'll go
Just promise you'll go and I'll go

If I take the wings at the glimpse of morning
And I find myself in the sea below

That's where I know your hands will find me
That's when I'll know that even there

Join us today as we look at and review a new resource from Andy Stanley called Next Generation Leader. We discuss this book and outline the sections that he wrote which are Courage, Clarity, Competence, Coachability, and Character. We are the next generation of leaders and we need to remember that when we fail to study, practice, and sharpen our skills we are failing the generations after us. Consider ways that you can improve your ministry and for those of you who haven't started your ministry do something today to begin. The first step is always the hardest, but once you start you have already turned the momentum in your favor.

Join us today as we talk about the future of theministrypodcast.com and what we have in store for all of you. We look at Luke 13:34 and talk about killing the messenger. We also talk about an illustration I heard from a Pastor once, but I am briefly cut off before the last 20 seconds of the video. I was hoping to keep these videos as a continuous reel, but I accidently ran out of storage space. If you are wondering why there is a transition at the end it's because the camera stopped recording so I had to restart the camera and splice the videos together.

Join us as we discuss the appointment of Saul as King of Israel and what we can learn from it. Saul was given a mission he did not ask for and God led him to the person who would anoint him. Funny how a simple task of finding donkeys turned into a life altering event. God has awesome things in store for us and sometimes they are hidden in our everyday boring routines so pay attention. Keep your eyes open for divine appointments and don't miss out on God given opportunities.
