I seriously don’t need to hear one more pastor/church planter tell me that they can’t do what God has called them to do because they don’t have…fill in the blank.
Please!!! Shut up and GET IT DONE!!!
Your church is not limited…
Church planter, pastor…stop poor mouthing your church and telling me about all of the things you don’t have.
- “We don’t have lights”
- “We don’t have staff”
- “We don’t have a sound system”
- “We don’t have a permanent facility”
Go back to Acts 1…what did they have? Seriously?
No sound system
No permanent facilities
No strategic growth plan
BUT…they had seen a dead man come back to life!!!
They had spent three years with Him.
They had a CLEAR vision from Jesus .
They had a desire to deal with the leadership challenge.
They were prepared for His moving…
And He showed up among 120 people and did something so powerful that we still talk about it today.
I am so glad they did not poor mouth God and tell Him about all they could not do because they simply lacked the resources.
We have the same thing they had….I would argue more!
(Can you imagine how quickly they could have impacted the world with what we have today?)
If God has told you to take a next step…then He has prepared the way!
Stop poor mouthing the Creator of the universe and insulting the Almighty with excuses that are merely a result of your lack of faith!
Life is too short and hell is too hot for us to play around!
GET IT DONE!
What do you think about Perry’s exhortation? Try this exercise–post a comment about at least three things your church does have.
