I must confess that some of the things I write about, preach about, and advertise of are not at the level of what you can see. I have been tempted at times to take something down from the website because in an honest evaluation, things are not as described. Things are described as our vision has purposed them to be.
What if, for example, in the praise and worship link, instead of saying something like vibrant and lively, it said something like, predictable and without fire. I don't think ours is, I am only making a point. There are some pages of our over 40 plus web pages that I have considered altering, adjusting, or simply deleting. And some of them I have. Others are getting there- the men's group might not be the mighty warriors advertized, but I believe we're moving in that direction.
So instead of altering things to the level of productivity, we maintain our vision level, our faith level. No, we are not perfect. Yes, we may be somewhat less than advertised in the natural in some areas. But this is our purpose, our passion, our resolve. We will settle for nothing less.
We are called to a spirit of excellence. We purpose to be second to none. Our kids deserve it, our youth deserve it, every area of church life deserves it. So we keep reaching, keep adjusting, and make changes when needed.
As the old sign says, Be patient. God isn't finished with me (us) yet. We're not coming down to the what is level, we're progressing to the vision of God level.
We invite you to visit with us. If, upon attending, you see something not as advertised, it is because all of the parts have not yet come in- you are a link and a part of the part that makes us complete. Welcome aboard, and get ready to work:)
Y'all be blessed!
Pastor Ronnie
