We're in the middle of this two week series that we're calling Dream. The premise behind the series is this question: If God had a dream for the church, what would it be? We're looking at Acts 2, the story of the church's beginning, to find the answer.
This AM I read a quote by Henry Blackaby that I wanted to pass on. It has to do with the Church. Enjoy: God established each church as a body of Christ, so that He could continue His redemptive work in the world. When Christ is allowed to function as Head of His church, God can use the body to carry out His will. Is your church working to show the entire earth that Christ is the Head of all things? He also include this prayer: Preeminent Lord of all the earth, mold your church, to reflect You so that Your will may be carried out throughout the world. Oh, Image of the invisible God, start the work of molding with me. Amen.
I got me thinking and maybe it'll get you thinking as well. We want Christ to be the head of Hub City. It's his church. We're the body. He's the head. We also want Hub City to reflect Jesus so that his will is carried out in Spartanburg and around the world.

Have you read Re-imagining the Church by Frank Viola? I think it would be right up your alley if you have not. I have that and Pagan Christianity if you ever want to borrow them. (Just promise me you won't burn them if you don't agree!) His web site is ptmin.org... lot's of great articles and his blog is linked there too.
