Do you remember that old Saturday night clip, that had “Hanz and Franz” the body building trainers? I will try to find a clip of them and place it at the end of today’s blog. I am waiting to hear back from “Pump It Up” on renting their facility for TrueLife Church. I am anxious to get started on building the plan, and I just keep hearing the words of Dana Carvey from SNL, “We’re ready to pump, (clap), you up”
Before church planting, I would not have called myself a man of BIG faith. I do not feel endowed with any kind of special faith powers, and I have no vision for an arena full of people expecting me to lay hands on them. However, faith is normally not filled with spectacular events. Faith is mostly mundane behaviour. Faith is action that is based upon a firm conviction of what might be created through the power of the Holy Spirit.
“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” (Hebrews 11:1, NIV)
Faith is not a feeling; Faith is an action. I can see what TrueLife Church looks like even though we have not opended our doors, and I am asking the Lord to increase my faith. May I keep working toward things which I can not see.
I found a video of Hanz and Franz on YouTube. Gotta love the inernet.
