It is a shame that winning has been
brought low by those who have only their gain in mind. Instead, I’d like to think of winning as the
goal for every team, group, or organization.
Not to make others losers but surely to give every person a goal in
which to strive. Coach Mike Krzyzewski, this week, set the all-time records for
wins in men’s college basketball (read the story here). He earned seven of his record 903
wins from the twelve games he coached against the Georgia Tech teams on which I
worked! Nonetheless, he makes winning something to be admired.
What does winning look like for our
church? What is the goal that every
person in the church is pulling toward?
If our journey were seen as a race, do we agree on where the finish-line
is located? Are we all headed in the
same direction? I have said before,
Of course, this requires a team effort. It calls for the right equipment, the right strategy, the right people, and a united Spirit. We have so much of that right here. Just like any other team event, winning for the church takes time and it takes determination.
I have been so blessed to stand alongside the great women and men of this church as we seek God’s Kingdom wins. I’m looking forward to the distances we’ll run together towards the goal stretched out before us. Grace and Peace, Scott
A win happens every time a person is
lead into a saving relationship with Jesus Christ and then sent out to bring
about change for the Kingdom.
