We continued our One Prayer--Unstoppable series this weekend with Pastor Mikel encouraging us to get into the Unstoppable Word of God. He did a great job. Saturday night he also shared one line about himself that still has me laughing...
“You wouldn’t believe what people hear when I talk.”
That is so funny because it’s so true. Growing up with a different culture and language, sometimes Mikel says one thing, but those of us who grew up here in the States hear it another way.
The point? God’s Word was written over a span of 1,500 years by 40 some different authors (all under the direction and inspiration of God). Different times and different cultures should have resulted in a pretty confusing book. But the Bible has its one theme seamlessly woven throughout.
All Scripture is God‑breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. -2 Timothy 3:16-17
Thanks Mikel for reminding us of God’s Unstoppable Word and your funny side all at the same time.
One more thing...I just gave my tithe online. If you’ve never tried that, you ought to check it out. It’s a great way to be consistent in your giving and support of what God is doing here at Community even as you travel this summer.
