Break Through??

Ben Arment has a great post about some similar feeling I am having right now. We are at a definite “crisis of belief” stage in the life of our church family. The finances are in a word, bad. We also have a hard time getting volunteers for the ministries we are offering. There are a lot of churches in the same situation as ours, a lot of them. We are in good company. It is just that some of them have buildings and assets that they are able to lean against during the storms. Church plants don’t have that luxury. I was encouraged by Ben’s post about this temporary “dip” (more about this in a later post) is simply preparation for a huge breakthrough in our church. Here is his conclusion on the matter:

Whenever I sense tension in our church, I’ve come to get excited about what God has in store… what he’s got brewing. Because he always works it for good. It took me a while to learn not to hyperventilate and panic from the uncontrollable change, the loss of people, whatever. But amid all the crises we’ve experienced, God has built our church stronger and stronger every year.

I’m excited about what God is going to do here in the next few days with His People. God, help us to become men and women of faith that will follow Your Calling to the ends of the earth.
