@erichoke I know this has gotten some pushback but I couldn’t agree more. Yes, we need to be in the Word, but we are called to be Shepherds, not just teachers. Discipleship doesn’t come primarily through sermons but being WITH the flock.
@erichoke Have not encountered a single scenario in our church where travel sports have helped a family’s spiritual life thrive. Few look at it missionally and it always pulls you away from connection to body life.
@ErikReed I agree with all of these…they are spot on…but I would put at the top of the list a passion for fervent prayer. It’s not implied in most of our churches. We don’t gather to pray with expectant urgency for that which matters most to God. Growth must be HIS supernatural work.
@mbird12 Well, you’re just on fire, aren’t you. Anyway you’ve got this Reformed Baptist inexperienced in all things Anglican a bit interested in your peculiar ways and self-proclaimed tasty grass. In all seriousness, what resource(s) might you recommend introducing your strange ways?
