嬰兒潮金齡宣教契機的迫切性

感恩去年參加金齡宣教營,希望各單位和參與者積極行動,華人教會的嬰兒潮金齡信徒出現于此時此地非偶然。機會不可再,白了少年頭,還能再走精彩人生下半場、承傳下一代、兩代。父子兵、祖孫兵完成上頭交付我們的使命。這個嬰兒潮金齡宣教的機會有其獨特性,一但過去、不能從來。怎樣進一步跟進、實踐金齡宣教。是一個迫切的課題,華人教會要講華人以外群體的宣教工作,不能再流于空談,金齡信徒能否繼續終生學習、把握先進科技、研究成果,用創新的方法來參與宣教。未來的宣教模式,重點不再是結構性勞動力的宣教,而是智慧型的宣教網絡。一切努力代禱、努力學習、研究和實踐。請多多指教。可以有什么具體的行動計劃、建議嗎?

垃圾還是活祭 Waste or Sacrifice

死亡的動物對你意味著什麼? 我認為這取決於你在哪裡看到他們,祭壇或垃圾桶。 我們把自己當作活祭嗎? 如果我們犧牲在錯誤的人手上, 像以利的兒子,那麼我們就是垃圾。
誰是祭司? 這促使我思考唯一的大祭司和“信徒皆祭司”的重要性。 這就是為什麼我盼望GOSP4EL能動員平信徒。
今天帶著社會、教會領袖、祭司職銜的人不小,他們能把我們獻到至高神的祭壇上嗎?我們并不缺領袖,我們失去了方向和帶領者應有的質素。

What does dead animal mean to you? I think that depends on where do you see them, the altar or the garbage bin. Are we offering ourselves as living sacrifice? What if we were sacrificed to the wrong hands, e.g. like the sons of Eli, then we would be waste.
Who are the priests? This prompt me to think about the importance of the only High Priest and "priesthood of all believers." That's why I would like to see GOSP4EL engaging evangelical laities.
Nowadays there are many leaders and clergy with title, how many of them can offer us to the altar for the Most High. We are not lack of leaders, but direction and leadership.
