01/25/18 TEAMING

01/25/18 TEAMING

TEAMING in the church
(includes)

Supporting after failure.
Encouraging during play.
Praising when successful.

If people put even half as much SUPPORT, ENCOURAGEMENT AND PRAISE into their local CHURCH as they do into sports, politics, business, academics, music, fishing, interneting, then THE LOCAL FIRE DEPARTMENT WOULD SHOW UP because folks would think THE CHURCH IS ON FIRE.

But shouldn't the body of Christ, the family of God get MORE TEAMING THAN ANY OTHER entity?
When you love your team, you do these three things.
When you love your school, you do these three things.
When you love your job and co-workers, you do these three things.
When you love your family, you do these three things.
When you love your mongrel dog, you do these three things.

WHEN WE LOVE THE PEOPLE OF GOD, WE WILL DO THESE THINGS.

Don't get upset with the preacher for pointing this out. If you are going to get upset with someone, get upset with yourself. You can't even blame this on the devil.
