You can do it too!

Today I am hanging out with guys that God has called to plant churches across the state of South Carolina. I love church planting and church planters! There is something exciting and exhilarating about launching out from the shore, crossing through the waves and breakwater, and sailing into the unknown. Committing to do something that you join God in from the very beginning. Casting a vision for something beautiful that doesn't even exist yet.

Here's the cool part........ you don't need to be a church planter to be part of something so grand. The Christian journey is the most awesome life one could find and follow! You are called to be a church planter in your family, in your workplace, and in your own neighborhood. You can paint a picture of life in Christ and people will flock to get a piece of what you have. With this honor in mind I ask you the question....... who are you pointing to Christ right now? Who are you currently praying for and asking God to reach? If you don't have a few people on your radar screen, you aren't participating in the journey as God intended.

Challenge: write the names of 3-5 people you want to see come to know Christ. Put it on your mirror, refrigerator, or breakfast table and pray for them daily. Then look for opportunities to be a friend and point people to a life-changing relationship with Jesus! Start today! Have people on your fishing list? Share their initials by commenting and we'll pray with each other! Lets hear it.
