I've been thinkin'

When we planted All Saints Church in 2001 I was 33, my kids were 12, 10, 7 and 2. I thought I knew a little about a lot of stuff. Today, I am 44, my kids are 22 (married), 20, 17 and 12. I know even less about a few things. 

I do, however, know this, the gospel changed me then and it continues to do so today. I am convinced the gospel is relevant, transformational and good news for everybody. It has been said, the gospel is an "open secret." It is meant to be shared, leaked, served and talked about over coffee. I have seen the gospel change and transform many people in my 10+ years at All Saints Church.

I have invited many people to "check out" All Saints and take in the culture of changed lives. I know many people at All Saints who have invited friends, family and "strangers" off the street to "check out" All Saints. The effect is too vast to measure!

During this Advent season, we all have an opportunity to invite someone to experience the gospel in its various forms. We can invite people to listen, serve, be a guest, watch, taste and sense the power of the gospel in Jesus Christ.

All Saints is preparing for our Christmas Eve gathering at 5 pm. We will be listening to Kris who was invited to hear and experience the gospel, it transformed him! His story is inspiring. Kris experienced the purpose of why Jesus came into the world as light, peace, hope and joy.

Who are you going to invite this Christmas Eve?
