you are the future...

I am currently at the General Council in Indianapolis. Today I attended a luncheon to discuss the new leadership that will change hands tomorrow as our movement known as the Assemblies of God elects a new General Superintendent. The purpose of this lunch was to discuss insights and shed light on shared visions of what the future of our movement could look like. It was very encouraging to see a group of almost 150 people that are interested in finding new and creative ways to do ministry. One of the many topics of discussion during our time together revolved around the idea of the leaders of today establishing mentoring relationships with the leaders of tomorrow. Looking for better ways to advance the kingdom of God is always great. I feel that this could play a vital role in the future of our movement. The saddest times, are those when a movement stops moving. Meetings like today give me great comfort in the fact that we are making progress.
