Charting the Course: Questions

By Charles Scott
I like questions.
Questions invoke thought.
Thought leads to ideas.
Ideas lead to innovation.
Innovation brings change.
Change should mean progress.
Progress escorts growth.
Growth is success.
(Unless of course it is around our waistline!)

I am 100% committed to the success of the Pentecostal Church of God! That means I am 100% committed to your success, our pastors and ministers, churches, ministries and missions – I pray John 15:8 for each of you and every ministry effort in the PCG!

Our assignment is the success of the Pentecostal Church of God. Not just one district, office, church or department but the PCG in its absolute entirety. If one area is not successful we have to ask if the whole is successful in God’s eyes.

Here are some important questions to consider and answer that assist us on the pathway to success:

1. Who am I around?
2. What are they doing to me?
3. What do they have me saying?
4. What do they have me reading?
5. Where do they have me going?
6. What do they have me thinking?
7. What do they have me becoming?
8. And this is the question that is the most important – Is that pleasing to God?

We are looking forward to seeing our district leaders at the General Board meeting in November. The days ahead will be busy as usual with conventions in Ohio (where we are headed at the time of this writing), Central, Oklahoma and Arizona Districts. Please keep us in your prayers as we pray for you daily.
