The New Year is rolling in…real fast. By my last count, we only have ten short days to go until the big 2010. The best way to introduce the New Year in your church is with a vivid, eye-catching, celebration-themed PowerPoint<\/a>. Using these finely crafted sideshows, you can welcome 2010 by giving a sermon that communicates the hope and joy of a New Year. Each of the PowerPoints is completely customizable. Here are just a sample of my favorites:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The “Fresh Start” PowerPoint introduces a theme that I find both necessary and refreshing. 2010 is a clean slate. Encourage your people with the growth and victory that they can experience in the New Year.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Claim God’s promises of blessing in 2010. This PowerPoint uses the Aaronic blessing of Numbers 6:24-26 as its theme passage: “The Lord bless you and keep you…”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
“The Journey Begins” PowerPoint uses a picture of the expansive panorama of an endless road to emphasize its lesson. Life is a journey. Eternity is the destination. Are we going the right way? This slide show uses the text of Ephesians 6-dealing with God’s strength, warfare, and armor-to put forth a powerful encouragement for the upcoming year.<\/p>\n
