Thoughts On Skyline This Week

I have said it before and I will proclaim it again and again and again and......"I am so thankful that God sent me to Skyline!"  The people of our church family are incredible.  Everywhere I turn, I see people helping people, I see people broken for people, I see people sharing with people.  I see the heart of Christ in soooo many that call Skyline home.

I see it on the weekend as people serve with gladness.  I see it outside of the weekend as people serve the needs of others through mission projects and community service.  I see it in the offering as people invest in the ministry of God's church through their tithes and offerings.  I see it in the Communication Cards as people share prayer requests, not only for the sick, but for the broken and the lost.  I see it in the new faces that are invited by our Skyline family.  I see it in changed lives.

I see it everywhere and it brings tears of joy to my eyes as I think of what God can and is going to do through this church.  I am humbled that I get to be part of it!  I hope you are too.  There is a feeling of intimacy that people notice, but at the same time there is a spirit of welcoming that people notice as well.  There is commitment to excellence.  There is commitment to attendance.  There is commitment to evangelism.

Need I say more?  I pastor an INCREDIBLE church!!!

As awesome as that is, there must be a challenge.  The challenge is to never be satisfied.  The hunger that we have to be all that we can be for God can never be quenched.  The hunger that we have to serve and give can never be quenched.  The hunger that we have to reach the unreached can never be quenched.  Our hunger has to be insatiable.

As we move into the fall, we are entering the time of harvest.  The time of harvest I believe has already begun.  The evidence is there.  People crossing the line of faith nearly every weekend.  New people showing up nearly every weekend.  New people serving in ministry.  New people owning the vision of our church and.....Old people leading the charge.

As we continue forward in this journey of Epic proportions, the harvest will become greater and greater...even a hundred fold.  Let's press forward together and see what God does!!!  Who's with me?
