Happy Father’s Day
“Everyday is Father’s Day”
Reading for the Week of June 20 – 26
Day 1- 1 Thessalonians 4
Day 2- 1 Thessalonians 5
Day 3- Philippians 2
Day 4- Philippians 4
Day 5- Romans 5
Day 6- Romans 12
Bonus- 2 Peter 1
Memorize/Reflect- “Be joyful always, pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)
Reflection- Do I make giving thanks part of my daily routine?
Discussion- Am I naturally joyful or not, and if not, how can I create a joyful attitude in a difficult world during tough times?
Prayer Direction- Ask God to give you the guidance and direction you need to set up a structure of self-reminding! It’s no shame to forget and slowly drift away from prayer, joy and thankfulness. This happened back in the days of Jesus and Peter and it happens today with us. Pray for the power to make this “will for you” part of your every-day life.
“Live It!” Challenge- Set your watch, phone, computer, or some other device to go off twice a day this week. When it does: 1) Stop and evaluate how thankful you have been in the past few hours, 2) Thank God for two or three things!
June Prayer Focus: Continue your focus on confession in your prayers. Use this simple format for your prayers: 1) I confess where I have not followed Your will in my past; 2) I confess where I am resisting Your leading and will today…help me surrender to you; 3) I ask you to help me surrender my future to you, more and more, so I need to confess less and less.
April-June: Continue the practice of Silence. This week, try a 30 minute time of silence and simply listen for God’s voice.
Resources in the Shoreline Bookstore: Check out, Master Your Money or Generous Living by Ron Blue. Also, Pick up Seismic Shifts, by Kevin Harney and read chapters 13-15…they are all about money.

Father’s Day is here at last!
What exactly is the purpose of Father’s Day? Is it the day dear old Dad gets what he wants, or does what he wants to do? Or is it the day he needs to be available for family to have him do what they would like so they can have a good Father’s Day?
Father’s Day applies to everyone whether you are a dad/will be a dad/are a bio-dad/a step dad/never had a dad/didn’t like your dad/are a grand dad/or are married to any one of the above.
So what is the common thread through all these Father roles? The Word of God.
How do we know His will for how a man is to be regardless of what role he lives out? Come to Father’s Day, June 20th to hear Pastor Dennis McFadden address these questions and more at Shoreline Community Church!
