I am not sure what your life is like right now, but mine is BUSY. It seems like every moment of every day is committed to something. Just when I think things are slowing down, they somehow get sped back up. One of the ways to slow it down is to invest time in Him.
Tomorrow we will launch one of those types of ministry. We begin a Bible study at Trinitea's Cup at 9:30 in the morning, I am calling Tsunami. We desire for people in the business of their lives to be able to slow down for an hour and come and focus on God and His Word. Every Tuesday from 9:30-10:30 we will meet together.
Who will come out and join us? I am not really sure. I guess if the truth be told I am not too worried about stuff like that. I believe if we have just a handful of people join us that it can be fruitful. The point of this is to get people in the Word and to reach out to those with questions about God.
If people come in to the cafe and want to join us, I say come on in and have a seat. If you are a skeptic have a seat. If you are a person who has been burned by the "organized church", we have a seat for you. If you feel that God has let you down. You are welcome at our table.
We are not running a Bible study for the person that thinks it is cool to be in every Bible study going. Our goal is to reach out to the unchurched or the doubting Thomas' of life. We want people to join us that have lots of questions about God and who He claimed to be.
How do we promote a ministry like this? Well probably not on a Christian radio station. I don't think we will find a lot of our target audience. Probably not by putting up a sign in the local church, since we are not looking for them to add another thing to their "religious calendar". The answer to this question is that I am not sure where to promote, but maybe we can invite some questioning friends.
If you are reading this, consider this your invitation. Jesus said, "come to me all you who are burdened down, cast all your cares on me, and I will care for you". Invite others to join us where we can learn together in a loving and caring, non judgmental atmosphere.
Hopefully we will see you at Tsunami! Come on out and I will tell you why it is called Tsunami!
