Prepare the Way

I have a fear that the church is not living up to its calling. And when i say "church", I mean the BIG church of the worldwide body of Christ as well as our little community at C3AK. We've been through a lot of ups and downs, highs and lows, celebrations and disappointments. But the truth of the matter is that it is time for us to look forward and leave what is behind us well... behind us.

This is a new year and a new day. There is a fresh calling and a fresh anointing on this church and its ministry. In that light let us take on the Spirit that influenced John the Baptist and determine that we are going to "Prepare the Way of the Lord". we are going to be a people of faith, hope and love that reached out to friends, loved ones, co-workers and strangers with the compassion of Christ for ONE PURPOSE: That they will be drawn to Him as we lift Him up.

Commit yourself today to be renewed and strengthened in your walk with Jesus and both seek and act on opportunities to share the good news with others. As we are going to discover in the new Sunday Series: "3:16" the good news is really very simple:

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life."
