The Meditation:
PASTOR: So many of us are a part of small congregations of 100 or less. As a result, we often feel so small and insignificant.
PEOPLE: What can such a small rag-tag group of believers do to change a nation, a city, or even a neighborhood? How can we touch a city?
PASTOR: We forget that you chose only 12. Later, you sent out 70. And they turned village after village upside down.
PEOPLE: The stories abound – Gideon’s Army, David’s mighty men, Daniel and his three companions. You don’t need a multitude. You look for quality, more than quantity.
PASTOR: God, would you rescue us from victim thinking? Would you stir us to believe you could spark a city-wide fire in our midst?
PEOPLE: Call us to live boldly for Christ. Change our city – and use our congregation in the process.
