How Can You Pray For Revolution?

I keep getting emails and messages from tons of awesome people wanting to know how they can pray for Revolution as we get ready for our second campus. I think that is awesome! I know launching a second campus is pretty normal in today’s church but for us it is a huge deal, so I appreciate the prayers any way we can get them!!!!

Here are some things you can pray about:

• That Jesus is made famous. That is the only reason we are doing this. We want to reach people who are far from God, plain and simple.
• We get our CO (certificate of occupancy). This is a HUGE stress right now. I’m pretty out of the loop because Tim has been handling everything, but I do know we don’t have it yet.  There just a ton of little things that have to be done and we are knocking those out.
• Pray for our staff.  The amount of hours that have been put in by our team over the last 3 weeks is insane.  Pray for their time, their rest, their walks with God, and their families as we near the finish line.
• Pray for me. Yes, that sounds weird. I have NEVER been one to put myself about our team but the reality is that as the Lead Pastor the pressure I feel right now is off the charts. At one time I would have apologized for asking you to pray for me specifically but not now. While our team each focus on their areas, I am focused on the entire church, every ministry, finances, etc. I appreciate the prayers.
• Our Holly Springs launch team. These people are awesome. They are leaving the comfort of Canton and what they know works, to try something crazy. I dig it!
• Logistics.  All of our ideas right now are just that, ideas. The rubber hits the road Sunday in regards to parking, children check-in,  video teaching, juggling bands, etc.
• Finances. God has showed up time and time again through this and the people of Revolution have stepped up the plate. But the best thing to say about our finances is we it is flowing like a cut artery.
• Sunday. In the middle of getting ready to launch a second campus, we still got Sunday coming. Amazing thing about Sunday is it comes every 7 days. This Sunday is going to be awesome and we need time to focus on it in the midst of the craziness that is going on.
• Distractions. This is how the devil works. Today, I have been letting little things bug me that should not be bugging me.  I need to focus on keeping the main thing, the main thing.
