Tonight’s Message: REPETITION REPUTATION
Key Phrase: “REPETITION BUILDS MY REPUTATION”
Reputation: the beliefs or opinions that are generally held about someone or something.
1. GOOD NAME
GOOD NAME VS RICHES GRAPHIC

Sweet

Awesome

We should be aware of what others think about us and what we think about ourselves.
Peter confesses Jesus as the Christ
Jesus was not concerned with how any others viewed Him because of His own insecurity…Jesus knew who He was.
Jesus asked what others thought about Him because He understood that He was representing someone else…that His reputation would directly influence what others thought about God.
As Christians, how we behave and act will be a direct representation of God - whether it is accurate or not.
REPETITION BUILDS MY REPUTATION
Two Names
We all have at least two names: First Name (Identifier), Last Name (Family)
Having the Wicker Last Name - I can go places and already be known because the reputation of my last name is already known to those around.
Maybe your parents have told you something along the lines of:
You’re a Johnson, Johnson’s never give up.
Whether the name that comes before you is good or bad, you can either choose to continue the good, redeem the bad, or tank the name.
REPETITION BUILDS MY REPUTATION
2. BE THE FAVORITE
Favor: grace, charm, popularity; pleasant, precious
NLT says “being held in high esteem”
Question: How many of you want to be the favorite?
Jesus, The Favorite
Jesus increases in wisdom
Jesus grew in favor with God and man
In order for Jesus to become the favorite, He had to be present with those around Him.
It’s not enough to just be around someone, we have to be present in the moment with them.
BONUS: make your time around others about them and not you.
Pay your friends compliments, notice new things about them, remember important moments with them.
Be an addition not a subtraction to them!
You spend enough time present with others, you will become the favorite, because
REPETITION BUILDS MY REPUTATION
// CLOSING
Wisdom seeks after a good name
Wisdom seeks after favor with others
Repetition builds my Reputation
