PURPOSE

A New day is dawning and I just want to take a second to thank so many pastors who are running the race (their race) with such passion and purpose.

Think about it, ministry is hard.    Leading a church can be the exciting and exhausting thing all in the same day.     Romans 12:8 says "Lead with all diligence."  I heard those words at a conference almost 10 years ago this month and they have been my marching orders.   So many people have the Romans 12:8 gift and the ultimate purpose of this blog is to provide a place where leaders can encourage each other.   Together we will be stronger than we are seperate. 

I pray for every church in and around Clark County to be a prevailing church.   To make a difference in the lives of its members and attenders.     Keep telling God's story and watch Him draw people to Himself.  Tell it with passion and purpose.  Tell it creatively.   

Serving with you,

John Bishop
