I remembered the seventies and the eighties when I was in my twenties,
God showed up in powerful ways, in those days;
Dry bones in the valley were rattling, old traditions were crumbling,
God visited our generation, with deliverance and transformation.
God is challenging this generation TODAY! Are you willing in the day of God’s visitation? Will you offer yourselves freely on the day of His power? Calling the millennials believers – IF NOT US, WHO? IF NOT NOW, WHEN?
I am not asking you to join CONVERSE-LIFE to fulfill your religious duties, to mark your spiritual attendance or even to assure a place in heaven in the hereafter. I am challenging you to enlist in God’s army, a band of youthful, idealistic, ambitious, and creative (even odd to those of other generation) with willing hearts to offer themselves sacrificially – for a greater good, for a greater purpose. There is a call from the Lord to those who would trust in the Lord and partner with Him in a cause greater and bigger than themselves.
Look around us. Look at humanity lost in a sea of hopelessness, aimlessness, and despair. There are many people out there who are lost, who are desperately trying to make a little meaning here and a little meaning there out of their lives. A relationship is fragile. Not even tight friendship can be assured to last a lifetime anymore. Individuality, independence, and self-preservation have taken over.
My challenge to you is to lock arms together to form a new community (a new breed) that is relevant, transparent and honest. A new community that holds on to Truth with a capital “T”, love God with everything, love one another without partiality, not ashamed to preach the Gospel of the Kingdom to all who are willing to hear, care for the environment, the poor, the needy and the outcast of society, and not forgetting to walk in the supernatural life that God has given (empowered by the Holy Spirit and endowed with spiritual gifts).
We don’t believe in hype, events, and new methodologies. We believe in the power of God to change lives. We believe in honest relationships. We believe in prayer. We believe in the power of God’s Word. We care. We love. We challenge. We communicate. We dialogue. We converse. We engage.
