O Lord, my passion is that we would be an aggressively God-loving, Bible saturated, Spirit-filled, racially diverse church that would seek relentlessly to know and proclaim the excellencies of Christ for the glory of God and the joy of all people. Help us keep our first love, help us strive to obey the great commission to go into all the world boldly preaching the Gospel and making disciples, and help us to search out the needy, the orphans and the widows as Christ Himself instructed us and showed us by His perfect life.
My hope is that God would grant us the grace to be a Christ-saturated people that are inundated with glorifying and exalting Him through: cherishing and meditating on His Word, treasuring and obeying His commandments, preaching and teaching that manifests the power of God, giving and sharing that is sacrificial, burdens and desires that overflow into prayer, worship and testimonies that honor Him from the heart, as well as funding and becoming missionaries among the nations. If He would build us into a God-conscious people that wrestle with Him like Jacob over the renown of His name among those on the East side of San Antonio and those yet unreached throughout the earth, my heart would rejoice!
