Desperate and Committed

This past Sunday was the final preview worship service before the official launch of Northwest Community Church. We had a great service as our worship planning system starts to gain some serious momentum. I continue to be amazed at the team God has assembled.

During the teaching time this past Sunday we saw how Moses responded to an impossible task by doing two very simple things. When Moses was fighting against all odds, he got desperate to hear from God and he chose the health and well-being of the community over his own. Moses' example has church planting application written all over it. The launch of a new church from scratch would be an impossible task if it depended solely on human ingenuity and effort. For Northwest Community Church to succeed, we must remain willing to submit to God's vision for the church and be committed to the long-term growth of the entire body. True spiritual health/growth does not happen in isolation, nor does it fully occur in lives that are only half-way committed. Rather God works the most through people who are desperate (for him) and committed (to his local church). Please pray that Northwest Community Church will become the type of church that leads people to become desperate and committed.
