We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Pastors should not be any more involved in the building program than they feel they must be. God called pastors to teach and preach, not be builders. The pastor needs to look after the spiritual side of building the house, not the bricks and sticks.
Stephen Anderson

The family of God is ethnically and culturally diverse. As Christians we not only permit such diversity, but we cherish it. This is because God Himself cherishes ethnic diversity. He is not color-blind; He is colorful. At His throne God welcomes worshipers “from every nation, tribe, people and language” (Rev. 7:9). His plan of redemption is for the peoples of the world in all their rich variety.
