A Highly Beneficial Time
For the past two days, our Ministry Team has been together on one of our respective campuses, listening to one another and praying for our church. These two days have been very beneficial days. They are days where God has made Himself known to us in a special way. It is amazing to see the diversity demonstrated through the unique, amazing ways God speaks to and works in the lives of these Christian leaders.
I am so thankful for these brothers and sisters in Christ. They serve beside me. They exercise their specific giftedness as an extension of my gift of Pastor-Teacher. Their service to the Lord, our church, and alongside of me means so much to me. Jeana and I are so grateful for these staff team members and their families. They bless us.
These two days remind me of the need to set aside a time and a place “to retreat” together. This retreat was not in a hotel or at a lakeside setting, but simply gathering together in a room on one of our campuses. The value did not come in “where,” but in just “being together uninterrupted.”
You know, the experience of being uninterrupted is so valuable in the Christian life. It is the most valuable in your walk with Christ. No one can walk with God for you. Therefore, getting alone with God in a designated place can have a huge value to your life and future.
Find a time this day to have this “highly beneficial time with God.”
