…and I just can’t hide it…I’m about to lose control and I think I like it!
For those of you around my age, you’ll recognize that tag line as lyrics from a Pointer Sisters’ song from the 1980′s. All I can say is I wouldn’t trade the time I spent living in the 80′s for another decade, and that I am so excited for the One Prayer project we are about to participate in during the month of June.
Hats off to Craig Groeschel and the LifeChurch.tv team for actually doing something that God will use to help unify churches throughout the world!
I feel like I’m more of a small church pastor with a vision of seeing like-minded ministries planted throughout the land. If we are involved in planting churches and spinning off people and resources to do so, it’s hard to see Revolution Church Sacramento growing to mega church status. However, it’s projects such as One Prayer that open my eyes to how important larger churches are in affecting the kingdom on a larger scale. They have the resources to initiate such a project, but being small allows us to be flexible and able to connect with things like One Prayer.
God is doing some amazing things in the church this year and I can’t wait to see how people in our community receive the call to pray for the church-at-large and be standing alongside over 900 churches with over 560,000 members from all over the world.
Craig at LifeChurch.tv challenged some of us to speak about the topic, “If God could answer one prayer for the church, what would your prayer be?” For me, I chose something that I think will be somewhat unique. My prayer would be for God to “Make us uncomfortable.” It’s during times of being uncomfortable that God is preparing us to rely on Him completely. What would your prayer be?
