Reflections: May 3, 2010


Weekend's Reflection by Gary Keith,
Executive & Teaching Pastor

The Adventure Gets Personal
Acts 2:22-41
This past weekend, we examined part two of Peter’s sermon on the day of Pentecost. People had just experienced the power of the Holy Spirit – they asked what just happened and in Peter’s explanation he gets personal by sharing his own story of Jesus. As we ask the question about how to be the church our answer not only includes doctrines that relate to Jesus – they also include the story of Jesus in our life.
How would you share with someone the story of Jesus in your life? Have you thought about it? Do you have something to share that demonstrates the power of Jesus in your life? Let me encourage you to take some time very soon to reflect on the story of Jesus in your life. After that be ready to share with others how Jesus has made a difference in your life – Jesus simply asks you to just share with others what you know – that is all – Let’s be ready to be the church by sharing our personal story of Jesus with others – Let’s not be afraid to get personal about Jesus – it might just change a life forever!
I’d love to hear about how this goes for you – let me know how sharing the story of Jesus in your life is received.
