Wrapped up our Fanatic series today. What a profound impact this series has had on my own life. A few highlights for me personally:
We can enjoy God. It’s not a “duty” to be a Christ-follower, it is a delight.
God wants worshipers. The goal of worship is to produce more worshipers of God.
Everything, I mean everything, in history is about the glory of God. How can I/we/us be part of that?
We finished up “One Great Nation” [part 2] next week … can’t wait!!
My first Father’s Day weekend!! What a blessing to be these two boys’ father!!
We have 2 staff members wearing casts and one who got bit by a copperhead … should we be concerned?
I just finished reading Dr. David Platt’s book, Radical. WOW! This book along with The Hole in Our Gospel and our adoption journey has had a profound impact on my understanding of Christianity and forcing me to ask some tough questions for myself, my family, and our church.
What kind of service does the Gospel of Jesus Christ demand and deserve?
What kind of church does the Gospel produce?
What is my role as a ”global” Christian? What is our church’s role in the call to “make disciples of all nations”?
What is our responsibility as Christians for addressing evils in the world such as poverty, hunger, disease, disaster response, etc. etc. ?
Beth is away next week on a mission trip … I’m flying solo at home … thank God for family!!
