Hording the Gospel?
August 12, 2010 by Glenn Sayers
Please read, and pray, about the implications of this article by Tim Avery at LeadershipJournal.net. How can we do even more in our community along with our Free Med Clinic, HelathyU, Food for Life, Blood Drives, Free Panera bread, possibly tutoring, after school care, Recovery Ministry, affordable housing…etc. etc… to reach out and meet the needs of our community? Is God placing anything on your heart, or on our hearts collectively? We’re being blessed, in order to bless others… this “gospel” of Good News is just too precious to horde! Glenn

How to speak his name in a “serve but don’t proselytize” world
Tim Avery
“Fifteen years ago, some Christians volunteered to help serve and prepare food for a New York City AIDS hospice with a clientele primarily of homosexual men. Since the hospice was involved in the gay rights movement, its administrators were nervous about letting church volunteers inside their doors. They made the expectations clear: you can come and serve, but don’t proselytize.”
