From the Desk of Pastor Jim… Purpose Driven Church Conference As many of you know, I attended a Purpose Driven Churches conference at Saddleback Church in Lake Forest California in July. It was the single best conference I have been to in more than 30 years! Many of you have asked what it was about and what does it mean for Faith Lutheran. Let me answer that first question this month. To do that, I will let Rick Warren, Saddleback lead pastor answer that. Here is what Rick wrote to us (emphasis is mine): “I was talking with a group of pastors in Rwanda a few months back, and they asked me to tell them what it meant to be a Purpose Driven church in as simple a way as possible. I said to them that the simplest way I know how to express what it means to be Purpose Driven is “to build Jesus’ church the way that Jesus wants it built.” Jesus shows us how to build his church in both what he taught and what he modeled. Being Purpose Driven means you’re seeking as a church to do all that Jesus taught his church to do. “A great commitment to the great commandment and the great commission will grow a great church.” In the great commandment and great commission of Jesus you find him talking about the five purposes of evangelism, fellowship, discipleship, ministry, and mission (Matthew 28:18-20). He talks about these purposes not only in these two passages, but also throughout his ministry – possibly most clearly in his teaching to the disciples the night before he went to the cross in John 13-17. It is his church that we are building, so obviously we are going to do the things that he taught us to do in building it. Jesus not only taught us these principles, he also modeled them for us. I’ve found that for many pastors and church leaders it is the model of Jesus that gives clarity as to what they need to do in their church to balance God’s purposes. One of the simplest ways to look at the ministry of Jesus is to understand that he had a ministry to the crowd and a ministry to the disciples. These two ministries were intertwined. As he ministered to the crowd, he was serving the disciples. As he was teaching the disciples, he was ministering to the crowd. He didn’t serve one or the other, he served both simultaneously. To be Purpose Driven is to have a ministry to the crowd and a ministry to the disciples. The crowd is the community around you who does not yet know Christ or has not yet connected with the Body of Christ as a place to grow and serve. The disciples, stating the obvious, are the group of believers in your church that you are seeking to help to grow in fulfilling God’s purposes in their lives.

Purpose Driven Church Conference As many of you know, I attended a Purpose Driven Churches conference at
Saddleback Church in Lake Forest California in July. It was the single best
conference I have been to in more than 30 years! Many of you have asked what
it was about and what does it mean for Faith Lutheran. Let me answer that first
question this month. To do that, I will let Rick Warren, Saddleback lead pastor
answer that. Here is what Rick wrote to us (emphasis is mine): “I was talking
with a group of pastors in Rwanda a few months back, and they asked me to tell
them what it meant to be a Purpose Driven church in as simple a way as
possible. I said to them that the simplest way I know how to express what it
means to be Purpose Driven is “to build Jesus’ church the way that Jesus wants
it built.” Jesus shows us how to build his church in both what he taught and what
he modeled.
Being Purpose Driven means you’re seeking as a church to do all that
Jesus taught his church to do.
“A great commitment to the great commandment and the great commission will
grow a great church.” In the great commandment and great commission of Jesus
you find him talking about the five purposes of evangelism, fellowship,
discipleship, ministry, and mission (Matthew 28:18-20). He talks about these
purposes not only in these two passages, but also throughout his ministry –
possibly most clearly in his teaching to the disciples the night before he went to
the cross in John 13-17. It is his church that we are building, so obviously we are
going to do the things that he taught us to do in building it.
Jesus not only taught us these principles, he also modeled them for us. I’ve
found that for many pastors and church leaders it is the model of Jesus that
gives clarity as to what they need to do in their church to balance God’s
purposes. One of the simplest ways to look at the ministry of Jesus is to
understand that he had a ministry to the crowd and a ministry to the disciples.
These two ministries were intertwined. As he ministered to the crowd, he was
serving the disciples. As he was teaching the disciples, he was ministering to the
crowd. He didn’t serve one or the other, he served both simultaneously.
To be Purpose Driven is to have a ministry to the crowd and a ministry to the
disciples. The crowd is the community around you who does not yet know Christ
or has not yet connected with the Body of Christ as a place to grow and serve.
The disciples, stating the obvious, are the group of believers in your church that
you are seeking to help to grow in fulfilling God’s purposes in their lives.
So what does it mean in a practical way to follow the model of Jesus in
ministering to the crowd and to the disciples? Here are the two ideas I gave my
pastor friends in Rwanda.

From the Desk of Pastor Jim…continued
1. Have a ministry to the crowd that includes being welcoming to
them in your worship services.
There are many kinds of ministry that we could and should have to the hurting
world around us. Those ministries must meet the needs of your community.
You help those who are hungry to be fed, those who are addicted to find
recovery, those without jobs to find work, those in grief to get support, those
without God to know God – the needs are as many as the people in your
community. The bridge to people’s hearts is to help them see how Christ can
meet their deepest need, whether it be physical, emotional, relational, or
spiritual.
As that need is met, there must also be a bridge into the fellowship of the
church – because it is only in the church that we can find continued healing.
Building that bridge has strategic parts to it that include language, culture,
music, and accessibility. But above all of that is the simple need to be friendly
to new people when they show up.
I can say that even as a pastor I’ve been to many, many churches where I’ve
felt like I was on the outside looking in. I could tell the people in the church
loved and enjoyed each other by the way the spoke to each other – I just
didn’t feel invited in. I know we don’t do this intentionally, it’s just easier to
talk to a friend instead of the person we’ve never met. The point is that we
must become intentional. While you may have greeters in your church, being
welcoming is not the job of just a few greeters. Every single member is
responsible for welcoming a new person at church, just as much as every
single member of a family is responsible for welcoming a new baby into that
family.
2. Have a ministry to the disciples that includes a clear path that
teaches them to do all Jesus commanded.
Jesus taught us to “teach them to do all I have commanded you.” He not only
taught this, he also modeled it for us in his three years of working with the
twelve disciples. Because this calling is so important, it cannot be left to
chance. We must give disciples a clear path to living a life of healthy
fellowship with believers, growth in Christ, serving others, living on mission,
and worship of God. What is that pathway in your church? If you cannot
identify it in seconds, I guarantee you that the new person in your church will
rarely be able to find it at all.
The longer I’m in ministry, the more I appreciate the power of a clear pathway.
Pathways inspire direction and movement. If you were to walk up to the edge
of a forest thick with trees, your tendency would be to stand and enjoy the
view. But if you walked up to that same forest and saw a clear path that
wound its way through with beautiful flowers and markers on both sides and a
sign over the entrance that said “This path is for you,” everything in you would
want to take that path. When there is no clear pathway in your church, new
people tend to stand back and enjoy the view instead of entering in to
become involved.

At Saddleback, the clearly marked start to the path is the CLASS series:
101 – Discovering Our Church Family
201 – Discovering My Spiritual Growth
301 – Discovering My Ministry
401 – Discovering My Life Mission These classes are the path to get our people started in their growth in God’s
purposes. The clear reason for the growth of God’s people at Saddleback is
the clear path of these classes where people make commitment to living by
God’s purposes. We’ve taught them almost every month for over 35 years!
Why have over 42,000 people been baptized at Saddleback? Because we’ve
been welcoming to new people and taught Class 101 every month for 35
years. Why is Saddleback one of the most generous churches in the world?
Because we’ve taught Class 201 (which focuses on the habits of Bible study,
small group, and giving) every month. How is it that we have over half our
members actively involved in over 500 different ministries? Because we’ve
taught Class 301 every month. How has Saddleback sent over 14,000
members to do missions in every country on the planet? Because we’ve
taught Class 401 every month for year after year after year. Because God is
always doing something great and something new, I believe there are
churches just starting today that will see far greater fruit than this. And I
believe that there are churches that have been faltering for decades in which
God wants to do the possibly greater work of bringing new life. Our part is to
follow the model and teaching of Jesus and to give a clear path to teach them
all to do all that Jesus commanded.

Parish Education News Submitted by Diana Craver
Summer will soon be over and the new Sunday
School year is right around the corner! Rally Day
will kick off the program on Sunday, August
26th at 10:30 AM. The Sunday School program
is also in need of teachers for the fall, winter
and spring quarters. We need one or two
teachers for 3rd through 5th grade, and we
need one or two teachers for our high school
class. If we get two teachers for each class,
then you could set up a schedule where you teach every other month. This is a
great ministry opportunity and a chance to mentor and get to know the
children in our congregation. If you feel like the Lord is calling you to this
important ministry, please call Diana Craver at 512-970-1340. The fall
quarter begins in September.

Christian Angel For 8-year-old Christian, needle pokes, long doctor visits and medicine that makes his entire body hurt have been reality for most of his life. Christian has lived in and out of hospitals since the day he was born. Born prematurely at just 27 weeks, Christian spent the first seven months of his life in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) surviving because of doctors, nurses as well as blood transfusions. When Christian was 2 years old, his mother Deborah noticed a lump on his abdomen. She rushed Christian to the emergency room but was sent home after the examination. When the lump did not go away a few days later, Deborah took him back to the ER, and was told she needed to take Christian to M.D. Anderson in Houston. “I remember going to M.D. Anderson before he was diagnosed and saying to myself ‘What am I doing here? It says cancer on the name of the hospital,’” said Deborah. Doctors broke the news to Deborah that parents dread – Christian had cancer. He was diagnosed with stage 3 high risk neuroblastoma, a cancer that develops from immature nerve cells found in several areas of the body. “When you have a child with cancer, your life changes,” said Deborah. “Your life stops while the world around you continues. You begin to live in hospitals.” Christian underwent several rounds of chemotherapy that included several blood and platelet transfusions. “It finally hit me after the first month of treatment when he lost his hair, I was thinking if he was going to die,” said Deborah. Christian endured the treatment, and after a hard and grueling battle was considered in remission. He went back to the joys of life as a kid, playing with his twin brother and older brother. “His brothers are his support system. He does everything with them,” said Deborah. Unfortunately, in 2015, after 11 months, he relapsed. The cancer seemed much more aggressive this time, as it was in his lungs and had progressed to his liver. To help him continue his fight, Deborah traveled with Christian wherever he needed to go for treatment, including Fort Worth, Philadelphia and San Antonio. “I knew his chances would be slim,” said Deborah. “The other thing was, he understood what was happening, he was older. He would say, ‘I don’t want to go. I hate it. Why do I have to go?’” Christian is now 8 years old, and he continues to fight every day.

Move in the
Direction of Jesus
What if we could significantly increase our effectiveness at making disciples by making a few small shifts in our behavior? Over the next five months, I'd like to take the opportunity to unpack one at a time the five "micro shifts" that Daniel Im lifts up in his book No Silver Bullets: Five Small Shifts That Will Transform Your Ministry. I believe that we have much to learn from this book as we seek greater effectiveness as we make disciples not only among our members, but most importantly with those who've yet to believe in our communities. The first shift is to move from focusing our spiritual maturation from destination to direction. Often times we think of spiritual maturity as a destination to be arrived at. We ask "What does a spiritually mature person look like?" Once we can check all the boxes then that means we are spiritually mature. Some large churches even organize their adult education courses around this idea of growing in faith to higher level classes. Others will measure spiritual maturity by counting how many progress from being worship attenders to small group participants to serving ministers to leaders. All of this points to thinking about discipleship as a destination. Daniel Im in his book suggests that a directional approach would be a more faithful and fruitful discipleship posture. He goes on to explain that discipleship is a journey of following Jesus and the key question we need to ask is: Are we moving in the direction of Jesus... or are we moving away from him? The one who may be proximate to Jesus but stagnate in their faith life is not growing as a disciple. The greater value is the one who is growing toward Jesus, no matter how far away he or she may be at any given moment. Defining discipleship directionally is by no means new or unique to the author of this book. Many others have done so before (perhaps most famous is Eugene Peterson defining discipleship as "a long obedience in the same direction"). Daniel Im rather is pointing out how easy it is for us to fall into destination patterns that are culturally normative and suggests that we need to be intentional in moving to a directional discipleship. So what is your church doing to help encourage lifelong journeys of spiritual growth in the direction of Jesus? What can you do to help fight against spiritual stagnation in your church? And how can you use this directional posture to help reach new people with an invitation to take their first step towards Jesus? Just imagine what God could do in and through your church if this posture of directional discipleship became normative!

Women of Faith Held a Successful Baby Shower for STPCC Submitted by Doris Engelhardt
On Tuesday, July 17th, the
Women of Faith hosted a Baby
Shower for the South Texas
Pregnancy Care Center at our
annual Salad Luncheon. Other
local churches had been
invited, and several were
represented, especially First
Baptist Church. There was a
total of about 50 who
attended, each bringing a baby gift and/or donating money to the “Diaper
Ministry” of the Pregnancy Center through our offering. The table for gifts was
overflowing; it took 6 laundry baskets to carry all the gifts given back to the
Pregnancy Center. In addition, $435 was donated to the “Diaper Ministry.”
Janice Weaver, Executive Director, and
our own Amy Cantrell, Client Services
Manager, were our guest speakers.
They told us a lot about the vision and
mission of the Pregnancy Center and
the many programs they offer to help
unwed mothers make the decision to
keep their baby instead of aborting.
They also provide counseling for the
fathers. You could tell how dedicated
they are by how they spoke.
The Pregnancy Center also has a program called SHARE that they take into the
public schools.
The Sexual
Health And
Relationship
Education
(SHARE)
program is an
abstinence
based sexual
health
curriculum that
is being offered to area schools. However, it is sad that they are not allowed to
offer this program in the Seguin schools at this time, because the Pregnancy
Center is a faith-based organization. However, the separation of church and state
is carefully respected during the instruction delivered in the schools. The SHARE
program is based on scientific and medically accurate information. So, speak to
you school board members about allowing this program into the Seguin schools.
You can learn much more about the work of the Pregnancy Center by going to
their website: southtexaspregnancycarecenter.com. This is truly an organization
that is worth supporting.
