Inspiration

Well, I am the lead usher for the 6:00 serive at the yoder barn for waters edge church. This was the service that hooked me into the whole church thing. As a volunteer you get to see many peoples stories come to life. Over the past month or so I have gotten to know a few women for a local womens shelter. It first started out with five of them coming to the evening service, last night they showed up with a group of 13!!! It just amazes me how the word of church spreads. Seeing these women overcome all they have dealt with and come to church inspires me. It inspires me to go that extra step to not only get to know these women better but also to take that extra step in my spiritual walk. What inspires you?

Stories...numbers can tell you a lot about numerical growth etc., but I have found that the stories people tell, will let you know how your church is doing. As far as myself, I would have to say the same. What do you talk about? WHat does your family talk about? It will tell you a lot.
