A God-Sized Task!
Monday, June 9, 2008
We received an email from one of our daughters this morning asking us how the Preview Service went on Sunday. She was reflecting on how busy she and her husband have been lately and how they have missed several Sundays at their church. It made her think of all of us at CenterPoint Church and how challelnging it must be to get things going in the summer. She's right! It is a challenge to build momentum in the summer months. We are so grateful for everyone who is committed to this effort and who were able to come to the Preview Service on Sunday. The message from the book of Nehemiah was very appropriate to where we are in this endeavor. God had placed it on Nehemiah's heart to rebuild the wall around Jerusalem. In order to accomplish this almost impossible task, it required months of prayer, planning, and finally moving ahead and gathering the resources necessary to accomplish the task. It is much the same with CenterPoint. We are praying and planning as we move ahead to accomplish the God-sized task of starting a new church. We are confident that God will supply all that is needed to establish a new community of faith that will reach out with the light of the Gospel to the larger community in which we live; a community that has so many needs. We are to be salt and light, living a life of unresistable influence!
In Christ, Pastor Dick
