DON'T BE TOLD!!!

YOU'RE ENOUGH

"To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often." - Winston Churchill

There were 10,000 prostitutes plying their trade on the streets of London. Binge drinking, gambling all sorts of morally wrong acts were widespread, in the eighteenth century. The UK had descended into decadence and immorality. Church congregations had declined sharply (just as they have in recent times). Parts of the church had virtually descended into paganism. Yet, the nation was changed. How?

The preaching of Wesley mostly, and Whitefield began to take effect. Their work saw thousands of people respond to the message they preached, and as a result encountered Jesus. Robert Raikes started his first Sunday school in 1780. The growth from this one idea touched 300,000 unchurched children within five years. By 1910, there were 5,668,760 children in Sunday school. God raised up Wilberforce, Shaftesbury and others. Not only were individual hearts

NAYSAYERS

"Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds." - Albert Einstein

Frequently, people are going to be offended by your ideas, plans and deeds. Remember Joseph? His heartless brothers fake his death, sold him to human traffickers. Things go from bad to worse, and Joseph ends up in an Egyptian dungeon. Do you remember why Joseph’s brothers sold him into slavery in the first place? For his dreams. Have you ever been called a 'dreamer'? Every true dreamer has to deal with naysayers, everyone has had more than their fair share and usually they aren't distant acquaintances.

If your dreams don't scare you, then they are too small. If they can scare you, how much more others? Your dreams will inspire many people, no doubt. But those dreams will also attract fierce opposition: they will cause a wide variety of reactions, including jealousy, rejection and anger. Some people might even want to kill you for your dreams. Simply because you're daring to disrupt the status quo.

You’re going to offend someone, but you’ve got to decide who it will be God, or the naysayers. The best revenge against your naysayers, is massive success.

HOW DO YOU HANDLE SHUT DOORS?

"When God gives you a new beginning, it starts with an ending. Be thankful for closed doors they often guide us to the right one." - Unknown

For thirteen years, one church National Community Church met in the movie theaters at DC’s Union Station, there about a hundred thousand people pass through daily. This not only put the church in the middle of the marketplace, it put them on the map because there weren't many churches around that had their own metro stop, train station, or taxi stands dropping off at their front door. That golden opportunity started with a phone call informing their pastor that Giddings School, the public school where they met, was closing its doors because of fire code violations. His immediate reaction was fear because it put them on the verge of becoming a homeless church. However, he soon realized that some of God’s best pre-moves are closed doors.

Right off the bat, no one likes closed doors. I still remember when we lost our church building some years ago. It felt like it was the end of the world, because how else can you explain being kicked out of your church building, on a Saturday afternoon? No way.
