This week we continue with week 3 of the God-ordained way reading schedule for the churches in Anaheim, Cypress, and Orange. Detailed information including the full reading schedule is available at churchinanaheim.org/gowreading/.
This week we will be reading The Vital Groups, Chapters 3 and 4. This book is available for purchase from Living Stream Ministry. You can also read it online at ministrybooks.org.
The Vitals Groups Chapter 3 continues the topic of the constituents of the vital groups. In Chapter 2 we saw that the constituents of the vital groups are the believers in Christ, the disciples of Christ, and the witnesses of Christ. In Chapter 3, we see the last three items of these constituents: the members of Christ, the brothers of Christ, and the prophets of God. All these statuses have much to do with the speaking of God. Chapter 4 continues by showing us that we are God’s new creation, no longer living in the natural life, becoming God’s oracle for His dispensing and spreading. We should follow the steps of the processed Triune God in seeking and gaining fallen people by shepherding them. If we all pick up the burden of shepherding, there will be a big revival in the recovery.
Let us encourage each other to fully enter into the content of this week!
