vision for a church
this morning started early, well for me it is early. i've been getting up around 7am these last weeks. it's good but i hope i don't burn myself. anyways, i went to a meeting with the japanese church. it eventually became a time for everyone who attended to share their vision; of what they would like to see happen in the church. i was almost at the end so i got to listen to everyone before i shared. i have not been going to the church the past year. only going a few times. yet it seems that i'm needed. i got that impression when i was talking with my friends.
everyone had good ideas of their vision. one suggested we needed our focus to always to be on God. and that the church needs to be theologically grounded. i don't like the word theology to be used in front of many ppl. i do agree that as a church to grow we need to see where God is work at. and to be in the word of God. plus as someone mentioned, a church that continues to pray/be in conversation with God (my thought on prayer is). when the church is seeking God, staying grounded in His word, and in conversation, then i believe some change will occur. so on sunday i will be in conversation with a friend on sunday school. i suggested my interest and i feel it's important to have a solid sunday school. i hope that in 3-5 years the vision that God has i believe will help this church to grow.
