Sunday Night Reflections

A Few Thoughts From an Amazing Day...

  • Worshiped at our home church in Kissimmee today! It was good to be home and we really missed the connection of the local church, Thank you FCC Kissimmee for being a church where we can grow and be connected.
  • Jim did an excellent job preaching on the topic of our Freedom in Christ.
  • Some old friends have returned to Kissimmee and I believe the children's ministry of FCC Kissimmee is going to prosper.
  • Question; are you a slave to sin or a slave to Christ?
  • Derek and worship team did a great job as well.
  • Last week I spoke with an alumnus of Florida Christian College who has transitioned his church from 60 to 350 and if he mentioned discipleship once he mentioned it 10 times. 
  • If I had to do it over again I would spend more time making disciples.
  • What is missing in our churches today is critical thinking - not criticism, but critical thinking that asks the question are the things we are doing really making a difference in the kingdom?
  • Ken Idleman's book, "Not a Fan" really makes you think about your relationship with Christ in a critical way.
  • What are YOU doing for the cause of Christ, too often we talk about what our CHURCHES are doing, but seriously what are YOU doing?
  • Something to chew on; In order to be a leader a man must have followers. And to have followers, a man must have their confidence. Hence the supreme quality for a leader is unquestionably integrity. Without it, no real success is possible, no matter whether it is on a section gang, a football field, in an army, or in an office. If a man’s associates find him guilty of phoniness, if they find that he lacks forthright integrity, he will fail. His teachings and actions must square with each other. –Dwight D Eisenhower
