lots on the brain…
jesus, wow, i’m tired and i’m full in my brain, so full i’m not sure that i even know what to write?
we had “the meeting” this afternoon and it was good to get our stuff out on the table, hopefully it can open up dialogue on some of these issues that seemingly divide us or that we have strain over.
some big questions:
- how do we organize ourselves? around doctrine? core values? mission? relationships? multiples of the previous? that’s a biggie.
- practices of the core values? how in depth do we go? how in depth do we need to go? what are we trying to do by defining the practices of the core values? how do the practices draw us closer to being more denominational?
anyways, i’m not so muchy of a good processor this way, i do better person to person, it will be good to have more dialogue on all of this.
Lord, help me to remain humble. help me to remain a listener and a learner. Lord help me to pray for the process and for those leaders in key positions. Lord lead us as a church and as elders and as a ministry into your heart.
Lord i pray for jayne, give her grace to recieve your grace. i pray that you’d minister to her through the HC tonight.
Man God i’m just so stinkin tired it’s ridiculous. help me to obey whatever it would be that you’d have for me tonight.
