What Keeps Me Going

Today I did an interview for a church multiplication video that I have been taking part in. I was asked to openly share from my heart about church planting and church multiplication. There were no real formatted questions it was very informal. Out of all the things I could have talked about i found myself talking about why we do what we doing and what keeps me going.
For me it's seeing 1st hand the lives that we are helping to change and impact. It's not me, or anything that I personally have to offer, but God working through me. It's awesome to see a handful of people who wanted to make a difference in LaSalle 3 years ago turn into small group of believers now made up of people brand new to the faith.
I never wanted to grow a new church from other church people, but rather grow a church from the ground up with people seeking a new relationship with God. This is what we prayed for and this is what has happened and i couldn't be more thrilled.
The real life changing experiences in lives of our members at Lifeline is what keeps me going. Seeing a room full of new Christ followers every Tuesday night who would not have stepped foot inside a church just 2 to 3 short years ago. We may be small but we are making a difference for Jesus 1 relationship at a time
