First of all, I thought being together at The Journey North today was AWESOME. Already, the feedback from the message and from Marty Yde’s song “Hear Me from Heaven” has been amazing. It seems as if the Holy Spirit may have lit us up. Many of us are “bending”.

I have been thinking a lot about how I am impacting the culture around me. Am I really making a difference in our community? Are we making the kind of difference that God would have us make? My constant prayer is that lost, hurting and broken people are finding grace and experiencing Christ because of The Journey North being here.

Three and a half years ago Christ called this little church plant into existence. There is a constant temptation to forget why we were birthed. We exist to be passionate worshipers, devoted to God and His mission, helping other become completely committed Christ followers.

I was somehow reminded of this after reading a blog post by Tim Stevens from LeadingSmart. He posted this video that was created by Ben Sanders for the launch of their Doors series at Granger this weekend.
