from John 14:8-14
As Jesus is preparing His disciples for His departure, He is encouraging them in the work that they are going to do in His Name. Jesus tells them that they are going to go on and do “greater things” than He has done…that the scope and reach of their ministry, empowered by the Holy Spirit, will extend beyond the boundaries of Jesus’ own ministry. Jesus encourages them in this by inviting them to remember all that they have already seen.
As we celebrate 25 years at the church’s current location, we do so by recalling all of the ways that God has been faithful and are challenged to look ahead to all that God is calling us into in His future for the church and for the world. What might God be calling you forward into in your own life?
