Vision

I have sometimes wondered why it’s hard to see people commit whole heartedly to the ministry I was running.
I now think it’s because my ministry lacked Vision.

I think Jesus had Vision.
Read Mark 8:31, Mark 10:45, Luke 19:10 and John 3:16

From Mark 8:31 we can learn.
  • Jesus actually has Vision
  • He tells us it
  • Who does he tell? His disciples, ver 27
  • It is abstract – Son of Man: Jesus’ characteristic way of referring to himself, It is prominent in Daniel 7:13-14, it refers to a human agent who would execute God’s saving purpose as God’s representative. The Son of Man bears God’s authority both to forgive and to judge
  • It dovetails into God’s plan to fix the problem of sin
  • It will happen
  • He keeps to it

My Vision for Children's and Youth ministry in the Anglican church in Tasmania is below.

Blogging about it is the easy bit.

I now need every Anglican Church to grab hold of my Vision.

It needs to sink into people’s heads, hearts and will. When it does you will see change.
