We just left San Antonio upon the completion of the annual Life Action Vision Gathering retreat. The purpose of Vision Gathering has five components. Spiritual Enrichment, Relationship Building, Vision Casting, Partnership Development, and Ministry Update.
These five elements are woven together in a Thursday evening through Sunday noon retreat atmosphere. Invariably, the highlight is what the Lord does spiritually in our hearts as we seek Him for personal renewal. Again, this year, we saw the Lord touch hearts as the message of revival always produces HOPE! Hope for our nation. Hope for the church. Hope for the home. All beginning with hope in our hearts.
A panel of four business leaders, who ran companies ranging from 120 employees to 18,000 employees, participated in a discussion on “Integrity in the Marketplace.” Wow! What insight!
We arrived in Graham Texas a couple of days ago and are just beginning an 8 day summit here at Oak Street Baptist Church. This church for over two years has been praying day and night for God to do something incredible here in this community. Is now the time?
As the moral and spiritual crisis in our nation mounts, the odds escalate. But I am reminded that the seed for a great miracle lies not in difficulty but in impossibility. Our goal this week and every week is the impossible. But so was the resurrection. And so was each of the Great Awakenings . . . including the next one!
