I've hesitated mention this on the blog because it felt a little too much like self-promotion. I don't want to do things that make me look good. I want to do things that make Christ look good. When I originally said yes to this interview, I simply wanted the end result to lift up Christ. When I first read the final result, I felt that, to some degree, that was accomplished. So, I am sharing this now for that same reason.
My secondary motivation for saying yes to the interview was the potential of getting the name of our church out there. I love my church and I am totally content with the people who are there and completely satisfied with God having full control over the growth of this Church. But I love people and I want them to come to our church!
I really believe that our core group of people at Edgewood Baptist Church have a genuine desire to do things God's way. For the most part they are holding onto the things that matter and willing to change and adjust in other areas. We just need some more people. So I hoped that the article might catch the eye of someone who might be hurting or struggling or maybe someone simply looking for a good church to attend.
If you haven't read the article, please read it and let me know what you think.
