Christian Ambition

When did "ambition" become a dirty word? On the surface, the term "Christian Ambition" might sound like an oxymoron, because somewhere along the line we adopt the notion that ambition is ungodly and prideful. The truth is that we are called to be boldly ambitious for God. Jesus said that "forceful" (ambitious) people lay hold of the Gospel. The trick is to not let wordly, self-focused ambition come in and choke out the Kindgom-minded drive that God has put inside the heart of every Believer. It's not about making our names great, but His Name great. The distinction is that we must remain always content, but never satisfied. We must always be thankful for what we have while also looking ahead to the even Greater Things God desires to do in and through us for His Glory. We must also realize that sometimes just being still in God's presence is the most productive thing we can be doing. Go ahead...be ambitious for Jesus.

Stevens Creek Grovetown

I'm so proud to be a part of a church that continues to break outside the box to reach people for Jesus. This Fall, we're launching a new campus in Grovetown, GA which will allow us to reach thousands of people that we're not currently reaching. Every community in America needs life-giving churches, and I'm thrilled to know that one is coming to Grovetown! It's an exciting time @ The Creek.
