Hello COG Family! I pray your week is going well.
A couple of weeks ago, Pastor Joel and I attended a conference in Dallas for church staff and leaders. Joel and I were able to spend extra quality time together since our travel agent (Joel) booked our return flight that went from Dallas to Orlando and then to Denver. Though you might have thought the extended travel time was the highlight of the 3-day conference, we were actually blessed to have speaker after speaker emphasize the theme:
follow
. Discipleship starts with and is based on the act of following. As Christians, we follow Jesus.
One of the quotes from Matt Chandler, the Lead Pastor of Teaching at The Village Church that has stuck with me is, "You cannot do life for Jesus if you do not do life with Jesus." I challenge you to chew Matt's statement. What does it mean to you? If you have time, stop in and give me your take on that quote.
Please see below to keep-up-to date on COG activities. Reach out if you have questions or want more information.
I look forward to seeing you Sunday!
Pastor Chris
