Why We Do What We Do

Two weeks ago Glenn McKeithan shared with me an awesome story that sums up why we do what we do. He shared with me that his sister and brother-in-law recently visited our church. That may not seem like a big deal, but it was because Glenn said his sister had been out of church for years and that her husband had never really been active in church. But after visiting our church they commented, "if there was a church like this close to us, we would attend." Glenn heard from his mother the other day that his sister and brother-in-law are now in a search for a church where they are from, and the catalyst for all this was their visit to Friendship. Sometimes we never know the impact on the kingdom that are efforts have, but we need to continue plugging along because it is making a difference. We are different to make a difference. Do you have a story that illustrates why we do what we do? If you do, I would love to hear it.
