Spying Out the Land

Posted in Church Planting on May 19, 2006 | Leave a Comment »

I had the opportunity to eat lunch yesterday with some folks representing vital partnerships in our upcoming church plant. We will work closely with the Shelby Baptist Association and Alabama State Board of Missions along with Westwood Baptist Church as we share the Gospel with people in Shelby County. I was told a story about a woman who lives in the area that I have felt lead to plant the church. She recently called the Shelby Baptist Association office to ask when someone would plant a church in her community! Isn’t it amazing how God drops clues for us to discover? He is already at work around us. It’s just a matter of joining Him in what He is doing.

Forgiven

Posted in Biblical Truths on May 5, 2006 | Leave a Comment »

Have you ever experienced a falling out with a close friend? I’m not talking about a disagreement over where to eat lunch. I mean the kind of heart-wrenching situation that causes a relationship to be broken. You know the feelings of hurt and disappointment that come from losing someone who is dear to you. You miss being able to talk to that friend and to spend time with them. The Bible says that when we sin, we impact our relationship with God. The fellowship we have with Him is broken. The Bible says that we have all sinned. Romans 3:23 says, “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” The only thing that can restore that relationship is forgiveness. Thankfully, God is eager to forgive. He desires for us to return to Him so that He can bless us with His forgiveness.
