New Challenge

We just got back from the Church of God convention last week and let me tell you, it was a blast! Not only did we get to meet new people, worship together, receive the word of God every single day, but we even ended the conference by having communion together. To me, that was awesome. One take away and a question that is still resonating with me is the fact that the conversation might be over, but we still have work to do.
 
My favorite quote from the first conference was “step into your influence ” There is a lot of work to be done for the Kingdom of God.” Yes, we are saved, but what about those around us, our families, friends, etc? They also need Jesus. That is why we need to stand in faith and in our influence, so that they can also know our Lord and Savior.
 
If you are asking yourself or maybe you are even wondering “What can I do or who can I reach?”, let me tell you, only you can reach the people you know. God has placed you in a place where you can influence others, you do not need to be a theologian, you just need to be you and God will do the rest.
 
Thank you for praying for the staff as we were in Tampa FL, for the convention. We got to process different things happening during this convention. Even being part of the general assembly was fruitful. To know that there are people paving the way for the next generation (stepping into their influence) was a great privilege.
Step into your influence.
With love, Pastor David
