What I did today

What I did today

Spent the morning out at Shepherd’s in Union Grove with Bill Amstutz. That ministry has Christ at the center and evangelism as the core value. I so appreciate Bill. We had a great chat about leadership. I need men like him speaking into my life.

Had lunch today with another great guy. I won’t name him here. But if you are at RBC you have – no doubt – seen him serving around here in a dozen ways, always with a smile on his face. I was asking him to join our church board as a new deacon.

I had a meeting recently with a different man in our congregation. He called and asked to see me. He has been here a long time and knows the gospel. But he was dying on the inside because of remembered sin, shame and regret. All I did was listen and then speak the gospel, simply, into his ears. He “believes it” officially at church. But he was having trouble believing it with his own heart. He didn’t experience it in his own conscience. How many men and women are in this predicament? A little one on one interaction over the gospel might make a world of difference in their lives.
