the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. our father sacrificed one for the good of the many. world missions starts at your front door step. internal conflicts promotes external conflicts which clouds who he really is. isn’t it really all about him and not us.

My church was started in my living room. I hope this is a proper response, and that I am making a little sense this time of the evening.  It’s been a long battle, and I am just exhausted. I tried too hard to please people, though my love for the Lord was geniune. It appears my focus was off, because some things needed to be done, yet I felt such a burden in trying to do them. I knew I had faltered, and the guilt was tremendous.  Yes, Satan had a field day, he knew I loved God, yet I stood on a road called compromise, not knowing it meant failure, shame, guilt, and divisions of all kinds. Now I am street ministry, and am still trying to comeback to where I fell. I feel it’s taking so long, there are many distractions. I know God is merciful, and gracious. Pray that this street ministry will be a better way,and without compromise. Pray success, because nothing is fulfilling until you have fulfilled that that the Lord has ordained. God Bless

It is a shame that the only thing we hear about is Church growth and not minister growth or how to spiritually grow your church, it’s all about numbers. I am frustrated because it seems the church growth gurus have done one thing, forgotten that the spiritual nature of the church is prime and that the numarical is secondary. Paul never addressed how to get a bigger church, ten ways to maximize your attendance why? Because the churches focus was not to be growth but Jesus Christ and him crucified and resurrected. The believer who is mature will reach out to the lost, the church that is mature will grow when God sees that it is being a faithful stewart of the gifts given to it. But nowadays we are obsessed by this notion of growth and in its attempt to do so it leaves Jesus behind. Nowehere listed is prayer, Bible reading, devotion, dicipleship its all enterainment and appeasment. Remember the church is not ours to do with as we please it is Jesus’s body and we must get his permission to do anything!
I as a prospective church planter will make it a priority that the congregation is a spiritual fellowship not a club, that is a place where the worship of the Lord (its style, music, and preaching)is placed before him in prayer and is under his direct leadership not the whims and passions of a depraved world that is passing away.
