Prioritizing Goals

What is our goal and purpose for the coming year?  It is to make our lives count for Christ.  May this be the year that people come to glorify God because of our witness and outreach.  It is rather obvious that we are living in difficult days and that people are searching for answers.  We have the answer in Jesus Christ.  This year our focus continues to be on our personal outreach into the community as well as our corporate outreach through our ministries at Landmark.  We can make a difference for the cause of Christ if we will focus on Kingdom principles and needs.  But all this begins with a personal commitment to be Christ focused and centered.  We also want to reaffirm that we as a church are ministering to and strengthening families in our church and neighborhoods.  We do this by knowing what God’s Word teaches concerning family and then matching knowledge with action.  The challenge was made last week to speak to one person a week about Jesus.  This is an attainable goal.  Let’s begin by praying for the coming week and the contacts and witness for Christ that will be made.  May God give us fruit for our labors.
