Deacon Ordination

What is your first thought when you think of “deacons” in the church? Is this a title given to elite Christians? Or is it a position of power and influence in the life of the church? Or a representative governing body that makes decisions, like a congress or a committee? What exactly are deacons for, and what does it mean when we set aside a new deacon in our church?

This Sunday, we’ll be setting aside Lance Nelson as a new deacon at Main Street Baptist Church. It will be a great opportunity to think about these questions, and to pause as a church family to celebrate. We’ll thank God for Lance, pray for him, encourage him, and challenge him. But more importantly, as with any leader of any kind in our church, we’ll be celebrating the work of God for us, in us, and through us.

I’m looking forward to this special day! See you then …

Planning

I think we all agree that planning is better than not planning, but is all planning good?

There is a kind of planning that is sinful. This planning does not take God into account – before, during, or after plans are made. We plan as if God either does not exist, or he is not interested in what we do.

Other planning acknowledges God, but it’s a little on the presumptuous side. We may ask God to guide us, but we make our plans with little thought about what God requires. Then, once plans are made, we ask God to bless them.

Is there another alternative? I’ve found that the best planning takes the time to seek and to discern God’s plan from the start. To the best of our understanding and ability, with intentionality and initiative, we plan to join God in what he’s doing. But even as we work our plan, we keep listening, watching, paying attention to God’s leading. And when we need to, we adjust course to stay aligned with his will as we understand it along the way.

We don’t have to have a perfect picture of God’s will before we start because, after all, a moving vehicle is easier to steer than one that is standing still. The key is to know God has a plan, we to never stop listening to him to understand what it is.

This Sunday, we’ll be looking at the wisdom of James as he considers the best approach to planning in God’s kingdom.

As always, I look forward to seeing you there!

Remember

During our years in Canada, we learned to celebrate the Canadian version of Memorial Day (called “Remembrance Day”) on November 11 (Veterans’ Day in the US). Canadians remember those who gave their lives in defense of their country by wearing a plastic poppy on their clothing during the month of November, reading a poem about flowers on a battlefield, and gathering at the “Legion” (think “VFW”) to tell stories, read names, and observe moments of silence. For several years, as a member of a chorus called “Acapella Road,” I participated by attending the celebration of the largest “Legion Hall” in Calgary to sing “Oh Canada,” “God Save the King,” and another song or two about boys going off to war, with my Barbershop brothers.

It's good for us to set aside a day and observe annual rituals to remind us to remember that no blessing comes without a price. Countless people have willingly made the ultimate sacrifice so that generations, including ours, could enjoy the freedoms we all too often take for granted.

Remembering is also an important practice of our faith. Jesus gave us the Lord’s Supper, a memorial of his broken body and shed blood that has purchased our salvation. As we pause to remember, we not only give thanks, but we also give opportunity for the Spirit of God to deepen our understanding and our experience of the new creation Jesus died to bring within us.

I hope you will take some special time this weekend to remember, to give thanks, and to recommit yourself to living in the fullness of all that is possible in your life because of the sacrifice of others.

We’ll certainly have the opportunity to do just that as we gather on Sunday morning. I look forward to seeing you there!

There are many "influencers" out there today that are anxious to share their "wisdom" with you. But how do you know if what they are sharing is truly wise? Pastor Glenn digs into James 3:13-18 to help clarify this issue. Such an important sermon for Believers today!
