What If?


"What if" is a great question to ask. Especially for a church. This question opens the door to explore the possibilities of what God can do through a group of people that are sincerely seeking to be with Jesus. Acts 4:13 says, "When they saw the courage of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they were astonished and they took note that these men had been with Jesus."

What if the world once again took note and was astonished at what God was doing in the church? I am convinced that once we devote ourselves to being with Jesus the world will want what we have.

I wrote this small booklet called "What If Thirty Days Could Change Your Church" to be a catalyst for converstions for churches. I am asking the question myself, "what if" we could get a whole bunch of churches learning what it means to be with Jesus in such a way that the world was astonished and taking note!

I'm reading this with the personalization of "What if I...."

I challenge you to do the same ! Let's be trouble makers together. Let's astonish our community and our work places.

Let's get busy with the Great Commission...it's our time NOW !

What if we give full control of our life to Jesus.

What if our Church members reaches out to Coweta's most needing Jesus in thier life.

What if we are different with the Peace and Love that Jesus brings that non-believers take notice and want to know how they too can be happy on earth.

What if we honored our God by being a Loving and Serving Church to his flock that most needs his Love and Compasion.

What if we quit worrying about what could happen and start doing what can happen for our Lord Jesus.
