Six Things I Pray I Won't Do as a Senior Adult in My Church

from Rainer on Leadership · host Church Answers

For Thom, it’s a present reality, for Sam it’s a prayer for the future. Listen as Thom and Sam discuss the attitudes each pray to avoid as senior adults in the church. Highlights: * Have an entitled attitude because of my giving to the church * Say "I've done my time" * Focus more on recreation than serving * Complain * Be more concerned about my preferences than the needs of others * Lose my zeal for evangelism Other highlights: As a senior adult with discretionary income, give joyfully with no strings attached. There is always a role for servants regardless of age.  For a senior adult with health issues, the role of prayer warrior is one way to stay connected to the church body.  Once you become preference driven, it is easier to become a complainer in the church.Resources mentioned in today's podcast: * End of Year Sale * Pray and Go * Revitalize NetworkEpisode SponsorsVanderbloemen has been serving churches for nine years, but did you know that Vanderbloemen also serves Christian schools, nonprofits, and Christian businesses?
