A Slave To Wilmington

Back in 2005 God placed a desire in my heart to start a church in Wilmington that would point people to life in Jesus.  I had no idea how this would be possible. Two and a half years later I’m still not sure but I think God is giving me some ideas.
While reading my Bible today this verse stuck out to me.  “Even though I am a free man with no master, I have become a slave to all people to bring many to Christ.”

    Those were the words of the terrorist turned preacher named Paul.  Paul knew that his purpose in life was to bring
 

    people to faith in Jesus.
 

Paul’s life was going to be spent reaching people for Christ.  His life was not about him but instead about those who don’t know Jesus.  He willingly made himself a slave to serve and love those who didn’t know Jesus.  His goal was to bring many to faith.

If we really desire to reach the city of Wilmington with the message of Jesus than we will willingly become slaves to this city.  We will lay down are egos and rights and join the service industry.  I’m afraid too many Christians are in the Serve-us industry instead of the service industry.

Lifepoint, how bad do you want to see Wilmington come to know Jesus?  Are you ready to be a slave to the city?

I can’t wait to tell you how we are going to serve Wilmington during this Christmas season
slave, Wilmington
