Serving in the church… are you an idiot? 

 

“ADD, its part of being a Mac User” – Terry Storch

 

An idiot is an everyday ordinary person

 

Three things to be an Idiot

• Idiots embrace being idiots – Acts 14

An ordinary person seeking God doesn’t always make sense, especially to those in the world watching.

Man is looking for qualifications, skills etc.

 

 15% of success is about knowledge 85% is about connecting

 

• Idiots are comfortably uncomfortable

IT has too many “S” words, strategy, stability, security

The church isn’t designed to be comfortable…. We don’t follow a comfortable Jesus.

IT Has a tendency to focus on the process not the results… Its all about the Gospel… its easy to miss that focus with all the “S” words.

Don’t start worshiping the process

 

• Idiots expose their weaknesses
  • Do you know and admit your weaknesses?

Working in the church, your Relationships with Christ, Family, Work, Church become one item… Working at the church isn’t your relationship with Christ.

• What are your Boundaries

Do you disconnect? 

• Accountability

You can live the lie of accountability and not live accountable.

Don’t live in the fear of rejection at the risk ok of not developing relationships.

Hebrews 11:6, without faith its impossible to please god. 

Faith is being completely sold out and an “Idiot” for God… sold out to God to change the world.

 

What are we trying to control personally that we need to let go… what do I need to let be exposed to let God take over?
