Godly Discontentment

I made some comment on Sunday about my overall dissatisfaction with where we are as a church.

Wanted to spend some time clarifying that.

What should WE as a church look like?

stagnate and platoued churches don’t dream

Sound doctrine: holiness

Love

HBS

Atmosphere (praise and worship)

Fear of God

Respect

Strong families

truth and lost focus

multi cultural

What are the thing you want to see in our church?

Character traits, culture

I want to go to a church that works together in all things for one common cause.

I want to go to a church that prioritizes that lost.

I want to go to a church that enjoys coming to church.

I want to go to a church that has an active Five Fold Ministry.

I want to go to a church that is Apostolic.

I want to go to a church that plants other churches.

Are we any of those things?

This is what I was trying to articulate Sunday morning…

I’m not unhappy with any one individual, or even the group.

There is a discontentment growing in me that says Im not satisfied with where we are!

King James Version Chapter 1

6 Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands. 7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 8 Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God; 9 Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,
