Us Pastors...

We’re people
We’re broken
We have issues too
We fall
We hurt
We hurt others
We sin
We get sick
We worry
We doubt
We feel pain

We aren’t perfect. And we never claim to be.
We need Jesus too

Please pray for us. Check on us. Encourage us. Uplift us. Inspire us

Giants don’t fall when the new year begins.
Giants fall when you make moves.

Quit making excuses, start making moves.

Move forward.
Faith forward.
Fight forward.

Our greatest opportunities are often disguised as our biggest problems.

Growth requires humility.

[Derek Griffon @DerekGRIFFon]

Don’t let criticism alter your convictions.

[Derek Griffon @DerekGRIFFon]

The approval of God is better than the applause of man.

Why?

The approval of God is forever.
The applause of man is fleeting.

We worship for an audience
of one: Jesus.

The Gospel frees us from the condemnation of religion.

Jesus took the curse that we were owed, so redemption
could become our story.

Be you. Here’s How in Four Dynamics:

Have Passion - Being loud about what you love.

Have Conviction - Being convinced by what you believe.

Have Clarity - Being direct in what you say.

Have Personality - Being the only you there is.

I never got the whole church size = health thing.

There’s healthy small churches and healthy big churches.

There’s unhealthy small churches and unhealthy big churches.

Why don’t we stop judging butts in the seat (or lack thereof) and maturity of disciples being formed.

You don’t need a polished church to reach the next generation nearly as much as you need a church passionate about your mission.

If it doesn’t challenge you,

God will use
your adversity
to advance the Gospel.

Can you imagine
what could happen
if we matched
the number of hours
we worry with the
same amount
of hours in prayer?

I’m curious to know your thoughts…

If I started a podcast, what do you think I would call it and what would the content be?

P.S. I’m NOT starting a podcast (😂😂) but I feel like this could be fun and informative.

[Derek Griffon @DerekGRIFFon]

Stop seeing prayer
as an instruction
manual to God
and embrace prayer
as a means
to intimacy with Him.
