Thoughts for Church Leaders - 04/08/2013

Do you ask your members to give an offering or to offer worship? Worship requires that we become the offering!

Another Snow Storm

Another Tuesday and another projected snowstorm. Rather than focus on my disappointment, I choose to remind myself that God is in control. I will continue to prepare for the opportunity He will set before me. Thanks for your prayers.

Prayer Request - February 26, 2013

Things went well last Tuesday, so it doesn’t surprise me that a snow storm has been forecast for today. Please continue in prayer not only that I would declare this word but that those for whom it is intended would brave the snow to come hear it. Being good soil requires perseverance. Luke 8: 15 But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop.

Commonwealth Community Church

Thank you for your prayers and encouragement. On Tuesday I begin teaching a 5-week series on giving at the Commonwealth Community Church in Chicago. This was in the works when I last contacted you. Now that the door is open please continue to pray that I may proclaim God’s message with clarity.

Prayer Request - February 1, 2013

It's a new year. My "More Than The Gift" website isn't functioning. My iTunes podcasts aren't working. I've been quiet. Yet, while I stand still God is moving and pursuing His purposes. I see glimpses of Him (even in the darkness) and hear His rustling (even in my silence). If He comes at midnight, will I be ready? I need your prayer.

Colossians 4:2-4

Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ , ..... Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I should.
