church reputation christ
I'm protective of the reputation of Christ and the church.
teacher church firsts
I'm a preacher first and a writer second, although my role is changing a bit at the church. I'm going to bring on a co-teacher, but I'll still be a pastor and a writer.
compassion expression church
Compassion in evangelical churches is out of balance. When I talk about it, I get a lot of glazed expressions.
thinking justice church
I think that a church should be setting the pace for social justice.
weekend church pastor
We're also a multi-site church, so we have other pastors on other campuses who want to read the message before the video plays on the weekend services. So it just works better for me.
church christ
Our tendency is to be converted to church and not to Christ.
vegas church shows
Never let the church become a place where it's just a Las Vegas display place for you to show off.
thinking challenges church
Every time we equip the church with a verse, chapter or a story from the Bible, we're really placing another weapon in the hands of the Holy Spirit that He uses to challenge and strengthen the church. I think that's very important.
jesus dedication church
To be active in a church social life or church activities or even a church mission to help the hungry or reach the poor, but really our dedication has to be born out of an infatuation with Jesus.
focus church protect
I have a great staff at the church; they protect me and allow me to focus on more of what I do best.
thinking grace church
I'm right now wrapping up the sermon series on grace. I'd like to figure out what this next series will be in January. To do that, I'm going to come up with four or five really good ideas - at least that I think are really good ideas - and if I don't sense God really highlighting one of those, I will go to the elders of our church and my co-pastors.
maturity feelings church
My co-pastor is Randy Frazee. Randy is the brightest bulb in this box. He really has a feeling for what a church needs in terms of maturity, so I listen to him.
church deeds shows
The church is never a place to show off. Do your good deeds quietly. Serve; don't seek to be seen
believe follow glory god save works
I don't believe our works save us, but I believe they follow us into heaven and bring glory to God.
