Notice: Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called incorrectly. Translation loading for the wp-plugin-bluehost domain was triggered too early. This is usually an indicator for some code in the plugin or theme running too early. Translations should be loaded at the init action or later. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.

I’ve always liked playing Trivial Pursuit.\u00a0 The questions were always so difficult, but I like that the game aims to help you be well-rounded in your knowledge.\u00a0 The goal is to get every single different\u00a0piece of the pie filled in… only then do you win the game.<\/p>\n

Maybe that’s because I’ve always been somewhat of a generalist instead of a specialist… I like to try a little bit of everything, learn a little here and there, get involved in as many different ways as I can.<\/p>\n

Today in worship and in celebration, that’s how we talked about our life of discipleship.\u00a0 God doesn’t want us to just do one thing – like prayer or one activity like music.\u00a0 I firmly believe that God wants us to dive in – to take our ordinary, every day lives, and to let every part of it be part of God’s work in the world.\u00a0 Our volunteering, our resources, our love for people, all of it.\u00a0 It all belongs to God.<\/p>\n

God wants us to love with all of our heart, soul, mind, and strength.<\/p>\n

God wants us to experience every single piece of a life of discipleship:\u00a0 worship, hospitality, spiritual formation, practicing our faith, service, and generosity.\u00a0 God wants us to be well-rounded as we follow Jesus into the world.<\/p>\n

And so today at Immanuel, we had pie… lots of pie!\u00a0 And we heard testimonies from many different people in the church about how they have been called to serve in all these different areas and what difference they make in their lives.\u00a0 And we had opportunities for people to sign up for over 80 different activities, ministries, and groups as part of the ministry of our church.\u00a0 We worshipped with songs that were traditional and contemporary (sometimes in the same song!), we gave bibles to our kindergarten and third graders and paused for a time of remembrance of 9\/11.\u00a0 We sang and prayed and explored the building – every nook and cranny.<\/p>\n

I am constantly amazed by the talent and love and devotion of the people at my church.\u00a0 They are passionate about what they do and willing to grow and try something new.\u00a0 They have skills beyond measure.\u00a0 Their hearts overflow.<\/p>\n

And I can’t wait to see what God is going to do when we all challenge each other to continue growing as disciples… to share the gifts we have with others and stretch ourselves in new ways and new areas by letting others teach us.<\/p>\n
