Timothy Lane Quotes

In A Congregation Meeting, The Pastor Encouraged The Congregation To Make A New Commitment To Serve The People [at The Trailer Park]. One Person Stood Up And Said That Past Efforts Had Failed Because The Church Lacked Organization. Another Person Said That The Church Failed Due To A Lack Of Knowledge Regarding The People's Practical Needs. Still Another Said That The Church Lacked Evangelistic Zeal.
In Each Case, The Person Offering Criticism Had The Gifts To Make The Effort Succeed! The Person Who Saw A Lack Of Organization Had The Gift Of Administration. The Person Who Saw The Lack Of Concern For Practical Needs Had The Gift Of Mercy. And The Person Who Thought The Church Lacked Evangelistic Zeal Had The Gift Of Evangelism. What Should Have Been A Very Successful Outreach Was Short-circuited Because They Had Not Been Using Their Gifts, The Very Gifts That Were Needed Most.
