The job of the church is not to impact the church, but to impact the world.

It’s like a huddle in a football game.

67,000 people don’t pay $50.00 a ticket to watch the World champion Giants huddle.

What if you went to a Giants game and for 2 ½ hours you watched 11 men stand in a circle and talk?

That’s not what you pay for!!

67,000 people bought a ticket to see what difference the huddle makes.

What they want to know is, having called the play in secret, does it work in public?

The challenge for the church is not what we do when we call our Sunday morning huddle

But what we do when we break our huddle and head to our Sunday morning assignment.

When Satan lines up against us, what difference does it make that we are Christians?

We must go and do what we discuss in the huddle.
