There were six of us from the Young Married’s class representing at the Be The Church project this weekend. We got our hands dirty and our shirts sweaty as we shared God’s love with some good ol’ hard work!
A job well done from our group made up of: Ryan - April – Kris – Lori – CMac – Jon
Over the past 9 months, our class has steadily marched through the book of Revelation. We’ve read about God’s vengeance towards sinners, his love of humanity, and his unwavering desire to see mankind repent and seek Him. Despite the HUGE ramifications of such truths, I wake up everyday just hoping to get by without much stress. Having talked with most of you, I sense you probably live in much the same way. Clearly, there is a huge disconnect between the enormity of the truths in the book of Revelation and the mediocrity with which we live out our daily lives.
At last week’s SBC pastor’s conference, David Platt stirred my heart with his message about the radical call of the gospel. Please take 10 minutes to listen to this excerpt from a message he gave a few years ago at his church in Birmingham. The call to follow Christ is so much more than a call to live a moral life or attend a local church. As Matt Chandler says, its a call to live life on purpose.
