September 2001 - February 2002
by Pastor Bob Stone
Growth and change are not easy transitions in a local church. There are specific actions and attitudes that are necessary if the church is to reflect its Lord and build a foundation for the present and future generations. As a church, we are in a 12-15 month transition to a new facility. We know, of course, we are not building a church—because the church is people—but some necessary building still must take place in us as our facility is being built.
How this new facility will impact our church life will not be decided by the architecture. Our success will be built upon and framed by our attitudes and actions. The following represents some of the people construction we are hoping to do:
Planning With the Big "IF" in Mind
(James 4:11-17)
Doing All Things To Win Some And
Leaving A Legacy For The Next Generation
(1 Corinthians 9:22; Jude 1:22-23)
Climbing the Ladder of Lasting Success—rungs
reaching toward the heart of success (1 Peter 5:5-7)
