Hello again! I apologize for being off schedule, but vacation and a crazy week does that to you sometimes. I am hoping to be consistent and back on schedule from now on. That said, on to the recap!
Pastor John is back from PLI (Pastoral Leadership Institute) with a fire that I haven’t seen in him for awhile. It’s exciting to see where God is going to be leading us through him.
The songs we did yesterday were:
Beautiful One (Hughes)
Lord, Reign in Me (Brown)
You are the One (Baloche/Brewster)
Be Still My Soul
How Deep the Father’s Love For Us (Townend)
Lord, Most High (Harris/Sadler)
How Could You Love Me So Much (Zhender)
Out of everything that took place in worship yesterday, the one thing that struck me the most was a question John posed to the congregation during the sermon. He asked, “If Lord of Life suddenly vanished from the corner of 33rd and Sycamore, would anybody even notice?”
I think that these words are desperately needed at our church (or any church) right now. What are we doing to reach the neighborhood to let them know of the love and grace of Jesus Christ? What are we doing to impact our city for Him? The single most imporant mission we have as Christians is to “go and make disciples of all nations.” Let’s get out and do it.
