God will be there

We strive to be relevant.
To be what the people want
To offer God in a way that is palatable.
Where is God in that?

How does one spread the Word
Without diluting the Word?
Without changing the Word to just words?
Where is God in that?

Why do people come to church?
Why do people not come to church?
How can we “market” the church?
Where is God in that?

Where is the lost sheep?
Where is the lost coin?
How do we bring God where he is needed?
God will be there.

What is worship?
How can we make God the center of worship?
How can we bring Church to our building?
God will be there.

How can we make the church grow?
Maybe by getting out of its way.
Maybe by getting out of God’s way.
God will be there.

The seed will land on fertile ground.
Our mission is to water and feed it,
To keep away the weeds.
God will make it grow.
God will be there.

We pray, we worship,
We place God at the center.
We branch out from there.
God will be there.
God is there.
God is here.
