I am being transformed.

Church work is hard. Harder than most jobs. Why do I do it?
I could go play with the big boys and make way more money, have way more power and essentially be better off.
I could write songs that change the world.
I could write a book that changes you.

I could, I could, I could.

But I want to make a difference.
I want to want to see people transformed by the power of Christ.
I want to be the man I am destined to be through that transforming renewal that only Christ can bring.
I want to see the Church become a healthy representation of Christ's love and righteousness.

But I fear that my actions will not make a difference when confronted with the enormous expanse of darkness.
I fear my soul gets lost all to often.
I fear that though I claim to "know" Christ, I deny Him His rightful spot in my being.
I fear that I will be exposed as someone who say's "Yes" with their hands, and murders with their words.

I am being transformed.

Are you?

If I was wanting more info

on building effective worship teams for multi site campuses, what books/blogs should I be reading?

Are you a Joyful giver?

Just watched this video, very intriguing. Do I give with this much joy? Or do I give out of compulsion?
And though I probably wouldn't dance like them, because I suck at it, I would be dancing on the inside.

This Sunday is turning out to be

a crap shoot where I, Josh Lee, am left holding an empty bag of tricks and trying to be as cool as this church (sarcasm) with my witty sayings in hopes to entice people to help me.

How bout you?
