Wisdom to increase your faith and effectiveness in 2025 comes from drawing back to assess the good, the bad and the ugly in 2024 before you launch into 2025. Zechariah 9:11-16 serves as our inspiration to draw back before we launch.
Use this next week before 2025 to see what you can learn from 2024. Let’s use an old Clint Eastwood movie title to establish a baseline. Do you remember, “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.” We’ll use each topic to point us to things we ought to celebrate, things we ought to learn, and things we ought to forget.
If you have not seen The Premiere of Apostolic Perspectives where I interviewed Al Houghton, I’m going to strongly encourage (challenge, admonish, provoke, prod….) you to watch it. This is especially useful to ministers interested in making disciples who bear fruit and fruit that remains.
