Two thoughts...

Okay, so last night was awesome. 92 people at Nexus. What the frigg? I dont know. Must be that God is doing something cool!!!

Okay, this second one...
My mind began to wonder today what church and religion would be like if in the Middle-Ages, Islam has not taken over Africa and Christianity would have "stuck"? All the way from Egypt to the Northern states in Africa, Christianity is almost nowhere to be found. Mohammed and his people pretty much moved right in and dominated. The main reason for the decline of the Christian Church in Africa was because of the infighting and problems among the church. Heresies began to be taught and people were fighting and aruguing and bickering with each other. Christians arguing?? What??? Could it be?? What scares me the most is the the church today gets caught up in some of the same stuff. We argue over little things, quarrels, and disputes. But why? What good does this do? Not a whole lot. Eventually Joseph Smith or Mohammed are going to infiltate our Christian churches with peace, rightness, and attractiveness. (What, this has already happened?) We as a church need to remember that...
1. We dont have all the answers.
2. Only God does have all the answers.
3. Keep our eyes on the prize. It is our job to remain doctrinally pure, and satisfyingly attractive to people.

We have to be careful or we are going to lose out big time!

Although I sound somewhat pessimistic about ministry, and Christianity, God is doing great things in our midst. Great, great things.
