Somewhere to run to

Anytime a church can throw other various events to create awareness in their community that they exist, that’s always a good thing. People begin to build an awareness of, “Okay, this church is in our city. They’re around. I’ve had interactions with them, and those interactions were positive.” When people get to those points in their lives where they’re like, “I need somewhere to run,” then they’re like, “Hey there’s that church over there.” So when [JGivens is] telling his story, he’s like, “I’m ready to run to God.” Part of running to God usually involves running to the local church. It’s not just, “I’m going to run out into the middle of nowhere and scream.” More than likely you’re going to run to a local church that has made itself known to you.

Edwards' first resolution

1. Resolved, that I will do whatsoever I think to be most to God’s glory, and my own good, profit and pleasure, in the whole of my duration, without any consideration of the time, whether now, or never so many myriad’s of ages hence. Resolved to do whatever I think to be my duty and most for the good and advantage of mankind in general. Resolved to do this, whatever difficulties I meet with, how many and how great soever.
