A Call to Action!
When I was 18, I remember having a peculiar fascination with the old Van Morrison and Cliff Richard song 'When the love of God, shines his light on me . . .' Now, I was NO Cliff fan - though all the pretentious teenagers at that time were big fans of Van the Man. It was a great song, but now that I look back - why do we need to sit and wait for God to shine his light on us . . . if we are believers, the light is already within us and it is our job to start to share our light with everyone else . . . . .
On Sunday, Peter challenged us about how we testify about Jesus. How do we share the light with others? Are we up for the job? Do we even think that this is up to us? These are big questions. The next network bible study takes a look at this. If we are the witnesses for Christ - how are we spreading the word? Are we doing a very good job of it? It is hard to look at ourselves in this way but we need to get ourselves ready to LIVE the Christian faith.
RISE is a series of mission events that we are planning for early April 2009 and we hope that as many people involved in the church will get involved. The plans are still being drawn up at present but you can take a look at our progress to date on the RISE site at http://risempc.blogspot.com . If you want to get involved - send me a message.
Its time for action!
