it's almost time ... 3 days till the work begins


So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.

It is almost time.  At this time on Monday all the Men On A Mission team will he working hard moving toward the completion of our future campus.  This team is composed of men of all ages, many different backgrounds but all have the same goal.

They have come to our town to help us do what God called us to do.  Yes, we are working hard to complete a building, and we are working hard to complete the building so we can pour life in to the people of our community, and beyond.

Will you join the team?  You really, really can.

First, you can (and we beg you) pray.  Pray for the property, the safety of the team, the finishing of each piece of each part of the work and pray that God gets every bit of the glory while we tell the stories of changed lives and expect even more from our God.

Second, you can give (and we ask you to give).  Go to www.thecommunityfellowship.org and click “give online”.  As you go through the process choose “vision fund” as all those gifts go toward the work on our future campus.

Third, get your body over here and help with the work (and there is plenty of space and plenty of work for you to help with).  Whether you are close by or far away, there is still time for you to join us.  Let me know if you want more details.  We need men who will build walls, men who will work on the roof, men who clean us messes and more.  There is a place for everyone.

I cannot wait to share with you each piece of the work next week.  Follow me and the church on Facebook to see the process, and thank you for taking part of this important week at The Community Fellowship!

Nehemiah 5:16  NLT
I also devoted myself to working on the wall and refused to acquire any land. And I required all my servants to spend time working on the wall.

2 Corinthians 12:9  NLT
Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me.

This is going to be one of the best weeks of our church’s life!  Thanks for joining in.

Francis Chan's "Forgotten God" (brand new book)

One of the most powerful preachers, writers and leaders of our time, in my opinion, is Francis Chan.  His first book, Crazy Love , revolutionized my thoughts about God's love as well as my interacting with God.  Now it is time for a brand new book from Chan being released tomorrow, September 1st.  The book is Forgotten God .   This is a phenomenal book about the power that Christians and the church can and must tap into.  All of it is within the Holy Spirit.  Francis talks about the power that was seen in the book of Acts when the Holy Spirit began to move among people.  It is true that many have avoided or maybe forgotten what the Holy Spirit is all about.   And like the Savior who poured out His life and blood so we have reason to rejoice, we were made to lay down our lives and give until it hurts.  We are most alive when we are loving and actively giving of ourselves because we were made to do these things.  It is when we live like this that the Spirit of God moves and ac...

inspiration from C.S. Lewis

There are many people, past and present, who get our attention by what they write or say or share.  For me C.S. Lewis is one of those.  He was a prolific writer who continues to grab the attention of thinkers from many different points of view. Lewis first grabbed my attention when I was in 5 th grader, and our teacher, Mrs. Foy, shared The Chronicles of Narnia with our class.  It was a powerful time that this dreamer opened doors to thinking like I had never lived before.  He wrote of faith, of far off places and of strong figures who found their character rooted deep in God. C.S. Lewis was born in 1898 and died in 1963, 7 years before I was born.  It wasn’t until his 30’s that under the influence of his friend Tolkien that he came to be a Christian.  He was raised in a traditional church going home, turned away from God as an Atheist in his teen years and through trying to stay away from God and faith returned to God with...
