Francis brought some serious passion to Catalyst. It was the first time I've heard him speak in person. Strong. The big takeaway for me was this: I need to call people to the same commitment that Christ called people to. Here are a few of my notes:
- I'm constantly fighting to make this ministry thing NOT a job.
The word of the LORD came to me, saying, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations." Jeremiah 1:4-5
- Do you really believe that or are you just running a church?
"Get yourself ready! Stand up and say to them whatever I command you. Do not be terrified by them, or I will terrify you before them. Jeremiah 1:17
- Say exactly what God has called you to say to whom he's called you to say it.
- God has called us to give people what they need, based on his Word, regardless of whether they stick around or not.
- Jesus led, few followed, but he kept leading.
