Q3 Team

My New Friends,

It was great to be with you tonight. It is late at night but I wanted to thank each of you for joining me on this new journey. I can't help but think of all of the possibilities and potential within the room. It is so great to be with people that are passionate about helping people find a pathway for spiritual development. I have traveled to many churches and I know the ones that are growing are the ones that are taking discipleship seriously.

Julie's comments really speak to us about the need for us to do well. We must not fail in discipleship. Jesus said to go into all the world and make disciples, not simply converts. This has to be intentional and strategic.

And this is only one small piece of our work ahead of us, but if we work together, pray together, and do life together, God is going to give us great joy for the journey.

A reminder:
1. We are praying 15 minutes before each of the morning services - try to attend one of them.
2. Sit in the front third of the sanctuary on Sundays.
3. Read the book, "Love, Acceptance, and Forgiveness" by Jerry Cook and Stanley Baldwin.
3. Prepare your heart for personal renewal and transformation.
4. Be prepared for thinking big and outside the box.
5. Pray for God's direction and vision
6. Be my friend at the picnic!!!!!!!!!!!

Let's keep this dialogue open. Send your comments to revkeithedwards@aol.com and I will post this for the whole team to read.

May you hear God's voice in all of this.

Serving Him,
Pastor Keith
