Something I posted on the Facebook page for the new church I am starting. I got “the call” a few years ago, and the process has been a slow, strange one. Ups and down with some hard work, but all of it lead by God. I do not know what the end result will be, and thank God that isn’t up to me, that is in God’s hand.
God’s call to me, and to everyone really, is simply obedience. If I am obedient, and I truly trust God and believe He is in control and uses everything, the good and the bad, to ultimately bring Him glory, then everything will be OK.
So, a new journey, and a new church begins on March 17, 2013 in Broken Arrow, OK. Here is what I posted about the new church. If you are a praying person, prayers for us would be appreciated.
Coming Soon…Apostles Church.
We aren’t better than any other churches. We won’t do things greater or smarter or more intelligently or cleverer than other churches. We won’t be closer to Jesus or worship him better or love him more than other churches. We won’t have a special key or secret ingredient that other churches are missing.
We will be another part of the body of Christ that strives to worship God in Spirit and in Truth. We will strive to listen to God and be obedient with the guidance of the Holy Spirit. We will offer a safe place for people to come and have their relationship with God RESTORED by grace through faith in Jesus. We will offer a place where in a safe community of believers GROWTH and DISCIPLESHIP can occur. We will encourage and support each other so all can discover God’s plan for their lives and they can be SENT to serve others and bring the good news of Jesus to the world.
We do this so God can get the glory. It is all about Him. He is the sovereign God and we trust Him and Him alone. We do this not in competition with other Gospel-centered churches, but as another tool for God to use to bring people to Him.
