Thank you Java55. It truly is amazing the difference when you do it God's way. Since the the date of my last post (within the past two weeks) we had added 27 more people to our community. When God sees you're ready, He sends the growth. I encourage every pastor and ministry of every small church out there, hang in and find out what changes God desires you to make. You prepare the soil and God sends the growth. You do the natural and God will take care of the supernatural. Blessings, Pastor Glen

This put a smile on my face!

Its a true blessing just to see that another amongst the few has got it right. Do keep up God's good work and may the harvests be bountiful.

God has taught me an invaluable lesson about growing a church; don't try! So often as pastors we so want to see our church grow and prosper that we try everything we can to make it grow. We buy all the books on church growth and follow the strategies and models that are taught. We watch other churches to see how they are doing it. We make plans and goals and toil over them. But what many pastors miss - I included, until recently - is the fact that none of these things ultimately grow a church. God does! And in His best selling book God put it like this, "I will build My Church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it. Danger fellow pastors and ministers! When we get caught up in the corporate mentality of growing "our" church and building "our" personal kingdom we are actually working against the very kingdom we should be a part of building.
