some interesting quotes, check em out
weird music but some great quotes...either way i am, in my heart, getting consumed with reaching people with the love of God...all those that are around us who don't know how amazing God is, those who have never heard...
"How many do you have?" That's the first thing they say When you pastor a church In America today. It seems we're successful By how many we HOLD But if this is our theory Who will tell the untold? If we get one to stay It is said, "We are growing!" We thrive on our reaping But what about our sowing? What the Lord really needs Is more workers and sowers, For He can't reach the world With only "church goers." It's time for the churches To start a new trend. Let's measure success By how many we SEND! Let's train up our people So they become "world reachers." We'll send them to nations As missionaries and teachers. They'll begin to reach thousands With the message they preach, And the more that we send, The more that we'll reach. "How many do you have?" Someone now might say Our church is INNUMERABLE 'Cause we send them away.
romans 10:14-15 14 How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher? 15How will they preach unless they are sent? Just as it is written, "HOW BEAUTIFUL ARE THE FEET OF THOSE WHO BRING GOOD NEWS OF GOOD THINGS!"
i am almost 32, been married to my wife tonya for over 11 years, trained in improv comedy for several years, i am the worship leader at a new church i help to start called E3.
this blog represents my personal views and not the views of my church, family, or friends...
-that the gospel is the most relevant message the church has today, and it's a freakin awesome message, the best of all -that the best way to see people come to jesus is done by preaching the gospel or the good news to them in person -every person in existance needs salvation that is only provided through the sacrifice jesus made at the cross -that roman chapter 10 is the blue print of how someone asks jesus into there heart -that anyone who is involved in personal and mass evangelism is fulfilling the great commission -mark 16:15 is the greatest job of the church above church projects, building funds, growing in christian faith, knowing more about God...it is the one job that has to get done before we die above all else -that God is not sending anyone to hell by not accepting Him but rather the body of Christ is responsible for reaching there generation...according to church and mission stats we aren't going to the ones who need to hear, not doing everything we can to see people saved in the most unreached REACHABLE areas of the world. -that we have enough resources to reach every human in every open nation with the gospel -that the 10/40 window is the most unreached unevangelized area of the world and that most of the church doesn't realize that there even is a 10/40 window -the 10/40 window is the greatest opportunity the church has to reach the most people at one time -that unreached people groups should be the single most targeted areas to evangelize since we do not have any scripture that says that there is a interim place after someone dies to hear the gospel... -i believe according to scripture, mission studies, missionary statistics that in fact not every person gets a chance to hear the gospel before they die -i believe that every christian is a minister of reconciliation and has the responsible joy of seeing people come to jesus through personal evangelism, missions, and prayer... -ultimately that the church can post pone jesus's return until the gospel is preached in all nations (ethnic groups of the world) -that evangelism is the funnest, most enjoyable, most fulfilling, most radist, most awesomeness thing anyone can do or be apart of...seeing people come to jesus!!!! -

Yep, the music is kind of scary. But good stuff!
"How many do you have?"
That's the first thing they say
When you pastor a church
In America today.
It seems we're successful
By how many we HOLD
But if this is our theory
Who will tell the untold?
If we get one to stay
It is said, "We are growing!"
We thrive on our reaping
But what about our sowing?
What the Lord really needs
Is more workers and sowers,
For He can't reach the world
With only "church goers."
It's time for the churches
To start a new trend.
Let's measure success
By how many we SEND!
Let's train up our people
So they become "world reachers."
We'll send them to nations
As missionaries and teachers.
They'll begin to reach thousands
With the message they preach,
And the more that we send,
The more that we'll reach.
"How many do you have?"
Someone now might say
Our church is INNUMERABLE
'Cause we send them away.
