For most of the day I was at our denomination's General Assembly. It is in downtown Atlanta, right in my backyard - which was good and bad. Good that there was little effort and expense to get to it, bad that I felt too tethered to big and little issues at the church and therefore I felt like I was trying to juggle my focus.
I am working on bringing together all my spade work together and put the sermon into an understandable and clear outline.
Came across this quote which is the heart of what I want to accomplish...
"If you want to build a ship, don't drum up the men to gather the wood, divide the work and give orders. Instead, teach them to yearn for the vast and endless sea." Antoine de Saint Exupery
I want us at Big Creek to yearn and hunger for Christ's Kingdom. My prayer and hope is that I paint a picture of the kingdom that we hunger for it.
