desperation...

“And what you think your good enough? Is that it? You’re hip enough? Cool enough? Creative enough? Smart enough? Oh you read Kellers book that came out on the 14th, okay. Oh, you’ve been online; you’ve read everything you can get your hands on? Alright. Listen, there is a power that you don’t get to control, you just get to submit to it. And the ones who are truly going to missionally engage this culture are those who understand the might and sheer power of the glory of God in Christ. And find there spirits overwhelmed to the point of prayer and the pursuit of him, to see his weight established in the hearts of those around him.” –Matt Chandler, Vision of a Church Planter, preached at ‘Text and Context’ in February 2008 at Mars Hill Church Seattle.

i confess, that i dont pray enough, im not broken enough because my schedule takes priyority over preaching the gospel.

what is hell nic? do you believe it? then why are you so afraid, or more modern, to busy to talk to people who have NEVER HEARD THE GOSPEL AND WILL SPEND AND ENTIRE ETERNITY IN SUFFERING!

God help us to get beyond our privatized schedule and onto his glory in the preached word.

oh....and all you reformed folk, lets stop talking about double predestination, and start watching it happen (that means go share the love of Christ in the gospel with someone you have never met).

...and pray that i would as well, give us courage LORD.
