This is great little Gospel Coalition video with Darrin Patrick and Ray Ortlund. They introduce the concept of how we can "fake God's work." Here are a few quotes:
RAY ORTLUND
- Simplicity is biblical
- Some churches need to, in repentance, deconstruct what they have become
- When the Lord is at work, you don’t need heavy programs
- Church is so crowded that vision is lost and quietness before the Lord is lost
- Busyness can be equated with importance, but that’s not the way of the kingdom
DARRIN PATRICK
- Our great temptation is to keep people happy
- Much of what we do is in response to the voice of people or the voice of God
- New ministries walk through a filter: vision, values, strategy and “wiff test”
