Learn to view others in the light as God sees us.

Is there a diversity of age in our church?

No one likes change, but as Christians we a, recharged to see the bright side of each generational shift. The younger people coming up are children of God, too. He has gifted them and purposed them just as He has all of the other generations before. 

“It was by Him that everything was created: the heavens, the earth, all things within and upon them, all things seen and unseen, thrones and dominions, spiritual powers and authorities. Every detail was crafted through His design, by His own hands, and for His purposes” (Colossians 1:16)  NKJV  16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or [a]principalities or [b]powers. All things were created through Him and for Him.

The direction we are moving in is no surprise to God. He provides what we need for the time we live in. When churches can combine the wisdom that comes with years spent walking with God, with the creative gifts that speak to the world we live in now, we have the ability to reach more souls for Christ. 

When we learn to see each other in the light God sees us, our ability to work together for His Kingdom’s purpose enables the church to lift itself out of the past and into the now.
