“You Do You”

“I have my ministry, you do yours”

“I have my destiny and calling, (aren’t I wonderful?), what is yours by the way?”

Translation ….”leave me alone, stay in your lane, while I isolate myself.”

This is the churchy version of rugged individualism, otherwise know as isolation or it can be a form of the pride of life, and be not confused it is godless.

It’s not like that in the kingdom of heaven. In the kingdom of Jesus it’s like family, that can do conflict, and can challenge one another. And their ministry is not a collection of great individual ministries, it’s ONE ministry they all do together after years of grinding and conflict and forgiveness and learning and living together in Jesus Christ.

Pastors and leaders who understand this want to merge their churches, not put a fence around to keep those, who might challenge them, in their lane.

The Biggest Problem on Earth

Nothing else comes close.

Should be #1 priority of Trump and the UN and the Russian and Chinese and Israeli leaders and Pelosi and the courts:

The biggest problem on earth is the problem of who is in charge during Christian meetings. The vast majority of the time it’s not Jesus himself.

Wanna “make the world a better place!” ? fix that and watch the world explode and be turned on its head.

Poverty eradicated, forgiveness extended, reconciliation everywhere. Freedom restored, real equality realized, not the fake, changing, PC kind.

Jesus can do that, he is big enough to direct small groups of people in every town on earth.

Big Church…Small Minded

When I committed to posting blog articles daily last month I did not think that a month in I’d want to post two per day. I’ve noticed that activity in anything I set out to create almost always stimulates further activity.

It’s the same way with inactivity.

So Imagine how much more of the work of Jesus Christ would happen if Christians were active. And were not stuck in the tradition of sitting idle and watching others “let their light shine” professionally on Sunday mornings!!

•How many more church meetings would be scheduled?

•How many more kids would start shining Jesus to their generation?

•How many more theologians would be writing books and sharing videos and podcasts?

•How many more Christians would even exist …if the church was active?, were trained to be active, trained and expected to bring a teaching or a song or an encouragement, or their extra finances to share with one another at every meeting? Then allowed and encouraged to share one by one?

I’d rather have a million small (30 member) churches that don’t have a building than a thousand big ones (500+ members) that do.

That is 30 times more Christians potentially who are active as opposed to 1/30th of that who let their clergy do the majority of the “work” and the sharing. The difference is incalculable, it would be like we were living on another planet.

Jesus people, bringing the kingdom of heaven down to earth.

Big-money church mentality is small-minded!

What Jesus started was much bigger and better, exponential means multiplication upon multiplication. Your pastor may be able to win 500 and handle 1000 if he is talented enough… but what happens when he moves away? Or retires or just quits? Likely collapse and dispersal of the body because it all rests on him.

It is not scale-able.

It serves a tiny, talented, clergy, and those ambitious enough to become clergy. It does not serve Jesus Christ well and not the masses of people he is after.

My prayer is that we (all Christians) together go back to following him and his plan for how and when to gather.
