Last summer I addressed the question “Can we go forward with our misssion or not” in a series called “The Little Church that Could”.

My conclusion is that we absloutely CAN…if certain faith/actions are in place.

The first is that since church is a collection of individual people focused together, we must deliver our”personal best”. Each of us has a vital part and if we bring it to the table together, we will go forward.

What is yours? Do you need my help getting it started? What team can you be on? Are you on the right team in the right role? Talk to me!

Last week I helped someone get going in a new role at Grace, and she is serving and making a difference with enthusiasm. How about you?

We CAN through Christ who gives us strength.

Kudos to TechArts, the team that does all the graphic, sound, staging, videos, etc at Grace. This web site is so cool and helpful. Today I used the verse for the day to get focused, and it really helped my day to get going.

Speaking of today…I am into day 3 of fasting/praying for those who requested prayer for porn probs. I look forward to this “Porn Sunday” at Grace….but I really look forward to a whole bunch of us beginning to confront this gigantic “elephant in the pew”

Several people asked for prayer this week in the area of porn problems. So I am on a clear liquid fast all week and I am focused at praying for those folks all week. Fasting has this wonderful way of focusing and simplifying my life. Like I am working as usual on pastoral stuff (communication, supporting leads, taking a class, keeping logistics going, prepping for Sunday, getting coached, etc) and all the while there is this inner focus on praying for a few folks who have admitted they struggle with porn.

Do you need help? I will pray for you.
