As a pastor in the local church setting, it is my responsibility to do everything I can to connect people with the love of Jesus through preaching, teaching, and casting vision. God has called me to share with the community of faith what it means to follow Jesus, to take a risk and make a difference.
I am a firm believer that God speaks today not only through the church, but through the culture itself. This is why I depend on others as well as myself to listen and see what God is doing in the world. This helps me determine what God is saying to the chuches and what I need to be working on when it comes to preparing messages.
I would like to try an experiment and see how well it works. I am asking all my readers to take the time and think about what you believe needs to be addressed in a Sunday morning message. What would help you become a better follower of Jesus? What do you believe needs to be addressed that would help those who have not received Jesus into their lives?
Send me your comments. This will give me a better idea where people are, what tools and resources they need to become everything God has created them to be, and to help others understand what it means to be a follower of Jesus. Please feel free to submit as many suggestions as you like and thanks for participating in “the experiment.”
