I've always found Graham Kendrick's song below inspiring. Maybe we've got too comfortable, too cosy, and have lost sight of mission in our churches. Jesus told His followers to GO and be good news in our communities. Isn't it interesting that the word GO is in God, Gospel, Good News? Could it be time to march forth in new and creative ways to communicate Good News? We'll walk the land With hearts on fire And every step will be a prayer Hope is rising New day dawning Sound of singing Fills the air Two thousand years And still the flame Is burning bright Across the land Hearts are waiting Longing, aching For awakening once again. |
