Spurring One Another On

“And let us consider how we may spur one another on to love and good deeds” (Hebrews 10:24).

Serving Christ through the local church is rewarding, but it can also be challenging. From time to time we need to be spurred on—to obedience, to faithfulness, and to perseverance. In short, we need each other. We need the support and encouragement of our fellow laborers to sharpen our focus, keep us on task, and encourage us to hold on to the joy of ministry.
In a way, that’s how I view our upcoming church leaders’ retreat at Blue Rock Camp, October 8-9. The fellowship we’ll enjoy, the principles and practices we’ll consider, and the encouragement we’ll receive will enable us to “spur one another on” in the good work of the ministry.
I hope to see you there.
