Love. Jesus. Simple. (2015)
September 6, 2015
Just got back from a trip to China and I missed all of you tons!! I can't wait to worship and fellowship with you tomorrow! I was blessed by the opportunity to visit Xi'an, Beijing and Shanghai, all incredible places with amazing people and rich culture. I went with a group of pastors from New England to meet and network with fellow local pastors in those cities.
As we met and learned from each other, God was boring a profound question deep into my soul: What makes a church great? As we visited these great cities, and then as I returned to the greatest city (in my humble opinion), I've been thinking about the irreducible nonnegotiables necessary for a great church. The irreducible components for a great church in China should also translate cross-culturally in Boston.
Join us tomorrow as I plan to share about what makes for a great church. I deeply believe that a great commitment to the Great Commandment and the Great Commission makes for a great church!
