Set Yourself Aflame!

" Want to get noticed? Set yourself on fire! "

Some one once asked a pastor who is a great communicator, the secret to communicate, sharing the gospel effectively and turning people attention to Christ. The pastor simply answered, "First, you need to douse yourself in kerosene and then set yourself on fire. That will surely get the attention from people that you seek."

To get others to listen to us about what we are going to share about Christ, we first need to set ourselves on fire for Christ. If we are burning for Him, people will notice the change in us, He likeness on us, the joy, the peace and all the fruits. The hotter the fire the faster it spreads. Therefore, seek to be on fire for Him, and sharing will just come naturally.

Torch yourself in God's flame, be the light to the world!

The Friendship Factor

" First impressions are vitally important. Within 11 minutes of entering a building, people generally decide if they will ever come back again. That means we have 11 minutes to sweep them off their feet! &nbsp" www.battlecry.com Following is an article published on www.battlecry.com which stresses the importance of first impression in today's youth ministry. Today, people make that assessment the minute they stepped into the church ground even before entering the doors. In my own personal experience, when I am church visiting on my travels, the most important thing to me is how friendly a church is. How quick the church members notice you and how they welcome the visitors. These receptions varies from the extreme end of you-seems-to-be-a-shadow-that-no-one-noticed to overwhelming you-are-greeted-by-everyone-and-announced-to-the-whole-church responses, but nothing like a friendly smile and a genuine greeting of "Hi, welcome to our church", being shown to y

Ten Things I Learned From My Dad

" Looking back, I'm beginning to realize how much he taught us not only by his strengths but also by the way he responded to his weaknesses " Mart De Haan Been Thinking About: Ten Things I Learned From My Dad "Been Thinking About" is a monthly article by RBC Ministries President Mart De Haan. In the memories that come with a parent's passing, I've been reminded of what my dad taught those of us who lived and worked with him. In many ways, Dad didn't have an easy life. Long before his problems with a detached retina, heart surgery, and Parkinson's disease, he lived in the shadow of his own father's colorful and commanding personality. While most people knew Dad as a strong-voiced, caring, and faithful teacher of the Bible, those of us who were close to him know that along the way Dad also wrestled with serious and deep questions about his own abilities and self-worth.
