Finding Hope, Joy, and Purpose

My daughter is actively growing her faith with a diverse group of girls at college. One evening after Bible study she called and asked me what is the purpose of going to church? Good question! Take a listen and let me know your thoughts!

Is Generation Z some mysterious life form? Or, maybe you think of them in relation to 'church' or 'religion' and you might think they are so lost and doomed and just a result of today's evil or liberal culture. I want to challenge that thought process! In this episode and a few to come, I will share research that has been done regarding Gen Z and really how they are no different from you and I and really from humans from creation.

What is evangelism AND 'whose' job is it? What is mission work? Is there a difference? I think so. I think there is a big difference. Two books I will reference in this episode are: The Hole in the Gospel and When Helping Hurts. I HIGHLY recommend reading them if you go on mission trips, are interested in going on a mission trip and want to know more about how I have come up with some of my beliefs.

Question: What should the goals be for a church? For 'the Church'? And, WHY?!? Listen in as I give my thoughts on this. Remember, dialogue is important. Allowing people to have their own beliefs is a good thing! So, even if you don't agree with me, let's be respectful. I will be the same with you!

Everyone wants to grow their church - what does that mean? Are there churches growing? (Hint: no. not really) What should our goals be? Tune in as I will go over what I told my church and it has ZERO to do with a program or music. I will be spending a couple of months talking about what I think about evangelism is and how to grow YOURSELF!

We like to think people should get what they deserve. Does God think like this? Do we think God should be like this? Jamelle dives into this idea looking at a lesson Jesus taught His disciples about the last being first. Easy to nod our heads at, but a very hard lesson to put into practice.
