Obedience

I'm still reading through "The BIG IDEA – Focus the Message and Multiply the Impact" by Dave Ferguson. This book has so challenged the way I think and are approaching ministry. It has made me look at all aspects of what we do on the night we meet and how all elements are being put together to laser focus what we are doing.

I like what Dave says in the book on page 22, "when we contribute to the bombardment of little ideas, we are implicitly telling our people that not all of god's truth has to be accompanied by obedient action."

This ties in to a quote from Juan Carlos Ortiz that he heard in Bible College, "the average Christian is educated to at least three years beyond their level of obedience."
