For the next few months I will be blog’n Crazy Love by Fancis Chan on Tuesdays.

The first chapter talked about the awe factor of God.  Chan challenged us to stop praying at God and listen in awe for a while.  I will let you know how it goes.

I need your help.  Saturday we will begin seeking a family of peace in Manchester.  This concept comes from the sending of the 72 in Luke 10 and is detailed in Organic Church  by Neil Cole.  Neil talks about the 102b virus.

 The Ten2b Prayer Virus 

 

 

 

 We all know “the prayer the Lord taught us” known commonly as “The Lord’s Prayer.” But this was not the only prayer Jesus taught us to pray. In Luke 10:2b, Jesus instructs his disciples to “beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into his harvest field.” That word, “beseech” is a very strong word. The man with leprosy ‘beseeched’ Jesus to heal him.

 

“Lord of the harvest, we see that the harvest is plentiful but that the workers are few. Lord of the harvest, would you send forth workers into your harvest field, here in _______ [your city], across North America, and to the ends of the earth.”

Please pray this for Manchester, TN.

If you have not read the book, order it now and while you are at it get Crazy Love by Francis Chan.  These books are both scripture based and will rock your world.
