a church of purpose page 2 by ric gustafson.


Nicholas munched on a chocolate chip cookie as someone finished pouring themselves a cup of coffee.
" Hello Nicholas".
He turned to see the Creator standing next to him.
" Did you enjoy the service?".
" Yes, I'm happy because they are worshipping me". He shook the hand of a parishoner. " That is the first purpose of a purpose driven church".
" To worship you always".
The Creator smiled. " With all of their hearts".
Nicholas poured himself a cup of coffee. " What other purposes can a church do?".
" Minister to others and to go and make disciples".
" Disciples?".
" My people need to be edified or educated to be more like me with their thoughts, feelings and actions".

Peace and God's blessings. Love Ric.
