Churches bring so many New Yorkers together, and their leaders do so much good work across our city. ‘For NYC’ is a new organization bringing Christian groups together to drive even more positive change.
Can't wait to see what they do!

Numbers matter because people matter. If you care about people, you'll care about numbers. @cnieuwhof
"Paul shook the snake off.. and suffered no ill effects." (Acts 28:5, NIV)
Follower of Jesus ... are you listening? Your Accuser's poison is fear & doubt & sin & shame. Shake it off, don't soak it in, so no ill can effect you.
"Paul shook the snake off.. and suffered no ill effects." (Acts 28:5, NIV)
All who are trying to do something great... are you listening? Critics will bite. It's what they do. Don't let their poison sink in... shake it off.
"Paul shook the snake off... and suffered no ill effects." (Acts 28:5, NIV)
Girls... are you listening? Why suffer any more ill effects; just shake that snake off.
Parents, teachers, mentors, leaders.... common counsel advises, "emulate my successes." Uncommon counsel adds, "avoid the dangers I didn't."
Common counsel advises, "pursue your passions." UNCOMMON counsel invites, "find your COMPASSION." Whom you feel compassion for says something about why you're on this planet.
Common culture identifies you: consumer, object, soldier, privileges, victim. UNCOMMON counsel advises, "remember who you REALLY are: beloved child of God, created on purpose for a purpose."
Common counsel advises: "do that you think is right." UNCOMMON counsel clarifies, "do what is righteous." Every person does what's right in their own eyes. The righteous man seeks to know & do what's right in God's eyes.
There will be no Mom-Blaming in heaven. Each person is responsible for their own life, their own relationship with God, their own relationship with spouse, kids, & fellow man.
Jesus was rejected, mocked, stripped of dignity, hideously mangled, easily defeated. But… he is my hero, my champion, my influencer, my wisdom, righteousness, & purpose. His is the table I want to be at, the page I want to follow, the glory I want to magnify. #makeJesusfamous
The true primary reason for all our relationships is to help each other know, love & serve Jesus. We have other goals: romance, survival, belonging, advancement. But if we'd make Jesus central instead, we'd get healthy marriage, family, friendship, partnership as a result.
Put Jesus center stage in your life. He's the "groom," you're the "best man." It'll remove confusion about your purpose. Everyday: "This day isn’t about me, it’s about Him. What an honor to be in His party!" #makeJesusfamous
Followers of Jesus should never discriminate who we love, or honor, or serve. But we should discriminate who we imitate.
We waste much time vying for a seat at the "cool kids' tables" of our profession, culture, subculture... But if you'll take your seat at the table of Jesus, He will make you famous in Heaven and influential on Earth. #pursuitoffame
