Next Generation

I was thinking this weekend about the Next Generation of ministry. Acts 18:36 tells us that King David by the will of God served his generation. Each generation must reach it's own generation with the message of redempton in Jesus Christ.

We took 40+ people from Sonrise Sunday night to hear the contemporary Christian group "Calling Levi" at Northstar Church meeting in the High School in Clifton Park, NY. Roscoe Lilly is the pastor. Roscoe is part of the same age group as my sons, so are the "kids" in "Calling Levi".

As I look around Sonrise, a good part of the church is a full generaton younger than me. Our pastoral staff is a generation younger as well. They like Roscoe and the Group "Calling Levi" have the enthuisim of youth. I hang around them as much as possible, their energy and new ideals thrill me. They think I'm encouraging them, in reality they encourage me. I have high hopes for Generations Y and Z .

Have a great week

Master Pastor
