As I begin to pray about 2011, I am concerned that we are becoming too dependent upon the political process as a means of creating hope and change rather than presenting the Kingdom of God to a lost and dying world.  In becoming dependent upon this process we will continue to lose people who would be involved in the local church, yet instead creating a drop off of in Church attendance and membership. As this happens another issue that is already happening is the older we get in our walk with the Lord the fewer none Christians are in our sphere of influence, creating fewer decisions for Christ. Just take a look at who we have lunch with and who is on our networking pages too prove my point.
