In a nutshell...the theme of our class is discovering our Passion and Calling from the LORD.
We are and will be using several exercises in and out of class to recall and review some of the top experiences of our lives...from childhood to the present to document things we have done well and enjoyed doing. These experiences give credible clues to our abilities and passion(s) that are helpful in showing us where the LORD is leading us...in ministry both at Eastbrook and out in the world.
These common threads show us where the LORD has, is and will continue to lead us in ministry.
Many of us are already very active in ministry at Eastbrook Church. That is great! Our churches should be the first place where we can use our spiritual gifts, passion or heart, abilities, personality and past experiences.
For those who may not be active in a current ministry at Eastbrook: All our discovery of abilities, strengths, gifts, etc. in the near future...we will be able to enter them into a computer database at Eastbrook and easily find where we can be most effective use these "gifts". Isn't this exciting?!!!
Our Eastbrook mission Statement:
"To proclaim and embody the love of Jesus Christ in the city and in the world."
That is the goal of our class: "In the city and the world" includes our family, neighborhood and our job or business.
In the coming weeks, we will see clearly how and where we can do that!
I will be updating this blog daily as I have inspiration from the LORD.
Many of you don't know me...so you could check out my Linkedin profile to get a better picture of where I am coming from.
