‘Fishing’ or ‘Sitting’ Churches?

So pray, that ‘sitting’ churches
Obey Jesus, ‘tis His will
Daily outreach, reproducing
His Great Commission, to fulfill.

Agape Love

Though we love to be loved
If despised, love abides
For agape love, is of God
And such love overrides.

Be a Bearer, not a Burden

How do you treat others
As a giver, or taker?
To unburden your load
Or to share, God’s favors?

Be His Lighthouse

In the midst of the night
When darkness, seems greatest
Know light, shines the brightest
So be strongest and bravest.

Shame on Us!

Let us go forth, and obey
A fear of God, not man
Follow Jesus, His commands
His Great Commission, His plan.

Are Our Churches Failing?

Jesus offered them hardship
No entertainment, nor bands
Heavenly rewards, awaiting
As we obey, His commands.

Laypeople or Priests?

With each member, of His Body
To be equipped, and taught
For the work of the ministry
Yet this vision, is rarely caught.

Our Spiritual ‘Nursery’

Our spiritual foundation
Our life purpose, our soul
Are so molded by our ‘nursery’
By their focus and goals.

Adding or Multiplying?

Sadly, leaders look to adding
Are not mentoring, disciple-making
With a vision, to reproduce
‘Fishers of men’…in the making.

A Church Leader’s Vision

For despite, our church meetings
Jesus’ vision, is not progressing
Not faithful pew-sitters
But disciple-makers, spreading.
