bridging the gap

Over the last 6 months or so I have had a reacurring thought about "bridging the gap" between the church and outsiders. I feel like God has been calling me to do something about it. I believe we need to bring the church to the quad cities, before we can bring the quad cities to church. I want to not only say Rock church is a different church, but first prove it. Here is the deal, he staff at the church is doing there part....I believe that. But WE, THE CHURCH, aren't. I feel like God has called me to lead a volenteer funded and opperated ministry. I want to be able to do things for christ that don't just "please" outsiders. I want them to say....."REALLY?" Jesus would do that?....for me? How do I learn more? I'm talking about concerts, bar game triathalons, motocross shows, benefits, etc. I don't have all of the answers. but I feel like the one answer I do have, is the one God is looking for.......YES....YES....YES....I WILL DO IT.

I LIKE how you think babe..this is an awesome fresh idea and there for sure needs to be someone who is committed enough to listen to Gods voice when he says to move into the city! Rock Church is about to take off and God is going to do AMAZING things - we just have to remember to stay ready willing and focused and He will use us to our fullest for His kingdom!!!
