"If people [leave] a meeting talking about what a wonderful sermon the preacher gave or how beautifully the singers sang, the meeting had failed. But if people went home saying things like, 'Isn't God good? He met me tonight in such a wonderful way,' it was a good meeting. There was to be no sharing the stage with the Lord."
Jim Cymbala, pastor of the Brooklyn Tabernacle, pens these words in his book, Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire, as he describes how the church of God is to be built above all on GOD - not a dynamic teacher, not an amazing worship team (even one as amazing as the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir), and not on the "programming" of church.
Throughout June 2013, Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire is our gift to you when you support Bridging the Gap with a gift of any amount. This book is a perfect compliment to Pastor Lloyd's series on spiritual gifts, which is also airing throughout June. Throughout this series and through this book, you will learn how to seek the Lord through prayer, and to be filled by His Spirit to do His work. And as always, your gifts to Bridging the Gap make it possible for us to reach audiences with the life-changing Word of God, throughout the United States and abroad.
