Contrary to what some would teach – there are several things in life worth fighting for. Wayne Cordeiro had some good things to say on that very subject…
One day after years of ministry with a wonderful congregation, I will say my good-byes, pack my bags and, with many tears, walk out of the church. But when I walk out of the church, there’s only one place I can walk into. Family. While everyone in our great church loved our family, I have come to realize that nobody is fighting for my family.
That’s great insight for a guy like me. I was called to be a follower of Christ, husband, and father long before I was ever called to be a Pastor. As much as I love Freedom Church, loving my family is a higher priority.
This isn’t even close to an exhaustive list, but I fight for my family through prayer, by dating my wife and daughters as well as spending significant time with my son. If need be, I’ll chop someone up with a machete as well
I hope you would do the same.
