Taking it to the people

Hey, I really ventured out and took the 8 quality characteristics and put them into a two-part sermon series the last 2 Sundays for both churches I pastor. The response of the people? They can't wait to check the health quality! They are now incredibly curious to find out what they are like as a community of faith....hmmmm. They all want to be one of the 30! So, what a "refreshing" wind of the Spirit as we anticipate what we can do together. I'll have two weeks while my wife and I are on mission to Cambodia to contemplate the 30 x 2 (Lord, please help me come up with the right 60 people!). And the Joel Council - well, I believe that will come together too. I think I want some thinkers, movers, and shakers as part of the team. Maybe church life won't be quite the same - what do you think?
