I love helping people to discern the will of God. It’s not an easy task. Many times they are looking for it in their own lives, but I have a different perspective. I figure if we can find God’s will, purpose and mission in the world, all we have to do is align our lives […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

This is insight from Bill Hull’s book, The Disciple-Making Pastor: The Keys to Building Healthy Christians in Today’s Church. Today’s church has become “weak and flabby,” says Hull. We have proliferated self-indulgent consumer religion, the “what can the church do for me syndrome.” What can you do to help restore its power and vigor? Become […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

"However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace." (Acts 20:24)
"The biggest deterrent to growth in most churches is lack of confidence in God's supernatural power to grow His church. We are obsessed with our own responsibility to find resources for growth. When our natural resources seem limited, our vision shrinks and we accept mediocrity. We can't grow the church, but God can! We don't have the resources, but He does! "
(Ken Hemphill, Revitalizing the Sunday Morning Dinosaur)
Worldliness is not the trap that most endangers us as Christian workers; nor is it sin. The trap we fall into is extravagantly desiring spiritual success; that is, success measured by, and patterned after, the form set by this religious age in which we now live (Luke 10:20). Never seek after anything other than the approval of God, and always be willing to go “outside the camp, bearing His disgrace.” (Hebrews 13:12-14)
Oswald Chambers, My Utmost for April 24
You will seek me and find me when you search for me with all your heart (Jeremiah 29:13)
