This weekend Spider-man 3 opens up world wide. This time the story deals with the battle of letting power be miss used and you turn from your mission and go bad. Spider-man was created to remind us and encourage us a simple yet powerful truth...
"With Great Power, comes great responsibilty."
Journey and it's leadership are facing a responsibilty, power battle right now. The church is growing and growing. Ministry ares area being pushed on a weekly basis. Leaders have gifts and abilties, personal live and families and burning hearts to make a impact and difference for God. Right now the battle is on..."How much more can we take with leaders that we have?" "How much more can you ask and expect of me?" "Where are the other heroes?"
It's a reality of ministry and life that we must all figure out. As we step into leadership, as we improve our gift mix.... God promises to ask more of us, give us greater responsibilty. I pray that every leader (current or new) stanfs firm and accepts the challenge that comes with these new / greater responsibilties. Don't give in, don't let the pressure crush you or make you give up. This weekend we gather for our annual Leadership Advance retreat. Our theme is IMPACT. Not only focus on more impact, but celebrate how much of an impact we have had through the grace of God and the working of the Holy Spirit.
There are great challenges ahead.... we'll give them name, faces and begin to do battle with them this weekend.
I am ready to lead and follow God to the next step of leadership and responsibilty..... are you ?
