Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
(2 Cor. 4:16-18)
(2 Cor. 4:16-18)
You're feeling it. We're all feeling it. The effects of a world-wide pandemic and mandatory isolation are taking its toll on everyone. We are all adapting (some more easily than others) to the rapidly changing requirements and predictions. It can all feel like too much.
But this we know. God is sovereign. Always.
While the world is gripped by fear, we are reminded that Christ conquered fear and death. He brings us hope. And we are honored to be able to offer that hope to people who don't have it.
Church plants, most of which don't have their own meeting spaces, but meet in schools, markets, and other public spaces, have been quick to adapt to the changing landscape. We are including some resources and ideas church planters have developed to help you and your church as you continue to pursue connections with people you are already in relationship with and others you haven't met.
If Christ can't be defeated by death, there's no way a little virus will crush his work. He loves his church and continues to care for her. Keep the faith. Cling to hope and share it boldly with all you encounter.
