The most mobile missionaries.

You know those scales of the most feared things in life:
  1. public speaking
  2. death
  3. asking someone out
  4. etc
I have a suspicion that changing churches is for most people is like a near 'death' experience. Even if there are good reasons to leave your church, and even greater reasons to join another, it is always very, very hard. It is just easier to live with whatever difficulties that exit.

What happens if there are good reasons to stay and changing would be difficult and frustrating? What then? That's what I need a handful of people to do for our church.

I know that we need serious help. With the 38 kids we had at church last week we just don't have the resources to do the things we need to do now, let alone the things we need to do be doing. The kind of help we need is the kind given by those who join us, not just float in and out.

I made up a video thinking about some of this stuff and how ordinary Christians are the ones that make the best missionaries.
