Sunday reflections and Discipleship Notes

Mar 15

Big Idea:
The kinsman-Redeemer bridges the gap between where you are and where God wants you to be.

Scripture Memory:
Romans 8:28 (NIV)
28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

Action Step:
Let’s BE the Kinsman-Redeemer to our community by taking part in “Love Loganville” on Saturday Morning March 21.

Random Thoughts:

  • What a wet day!  Bill picked our trailer up this morning and he almost got stuck in the mud!  I took the trailer back and could not get it through the mud to park it.  I skipped the trailer-backing class in seminary.  To make matters worse, my friend Dave was watching and made fun of me. 
  • Thursday was awesome!  We took a dozen people to UNLEASH, a leaders training conference and had a blast.  We learned so much and were challenged.  Please go here to UNLEASH and watch one of the sessions.  Click on the “turn me on” button ”on-demand” button then click “unleash 2009″ and click the afternoon session.  You will love it. 
  • I actually got to go on a date with my wife Friday night! 
  • This morning was awesome!  I love our band and I love hearing Ric, Shelley and Austin sing.  Shelley knocked it out of the park with the Revelation song this morning! 
  • More individuals turned to follow Jesus this morning.  That gets me jacked up.
  • We have to schedule a baptism!  Coming soon.
  • I am so burdened to be a church of Kinsmen-Redeemers.  I want to be A Kinsman-Redeemer community of faith to our community! 
  • I am looking forward to LOVE LOGANVILLE this coming Saturday.  I hope many of you will come and be a part. 
  • I want to make a visible, observable difference in this community for a long time!
  • I hope you will spend some time thinking of and thanking God for the kinsmen-redeemers in your life that influenced you toward Jesus. 
  • I hope we will all be kinsmen-redeemers to others around us.  God has called us to bridge the gap between where people are and where God wants them to be. 
  • I had no intention of offending anyone with my comment saying, “If you have no intention of ever helping us reach more people by actually getting involved serving here, we can use your seat for someone else that needs to hear about Jesus.”  A sweet, gracious lady approached me to clarify what I meant and I so appreciate her taking the time to ask me about it.  In my passion for what God has called us to do, I don’t want to offend people but I certainly want to challenge our people to step up!
  • I love this church!  I love what God has called us to do.
