The Power of God’s Word
I was reading Ed Stetzer’s blog today and found a fascinating article from Jared Wilson. In this blog article, Jared had posted a video from entitled, “Don’t Waste Your Pulpits.” It is well worth your time investment to watch this video. So many times we can get caught up in “psycho babble” and forget what really changes lives . . . God’s Word. Scripture says, “For the Word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.” – Hebrews 4:12.
As a pastor, it is so easy to get caught up in the latest trends, what is fashionable for the moment, what seems to be working in churches, etc. We must seek to be culturally relevant but maintain the integrity and centrality of God’s Word. It is not enough to be Biblically based but we must be Biblically saturated!
