The Church’s Priorities
Monday, August 25th, 20081. One of the preachers on your team returns home having been beaten.
2. Someone asks if they can borrow a room in your home to have a Bible study.
3. A village nearby doesn’t have any water and there is a breakout of severe diarrhea among the children.
4. You get word that another village has sold 20 of their children to a couple of men who say they can give the kids a better life.
5. You have a committee meeting to decide on the order of worship.
6. A baby gets dropped off at your doorstep.
7. A small group of ‘rookie’ preachers asks you to help them prepare for an upcoming sermon.
8. You have a lunch appointment to encourage a friend who is having trouble deciding what to do with his business.
9. You hear of a village where the children are going blind for lack of Vitamin A.
10. The church needs new carpet.
Which one will you do first? Why? Seriously…give it a try. I’ll tell you my answer if you tell me yours.
