Do. Love. Walk.



Hello, my name is Michael Clevenger. My life is a romance with providence. I love Jesus, the least of these, worship, music, biking, intercession, traveling, theology, philosophy, non-violence, learning, listening, reading, adventuring, exploring, tea, writing, photography, coffee, stirring up others faith, good times, good sweet tea, & good BBQ-- not necessarily in that order. Check out my new blog "Gospel of the Kingdom" below.

DECLARATION

This was spoken over us at Training Camp and needs to be shared.

We have decided that teaching the Gospel without demonstrating the Gospel is not enough. 

Good preaching, good doctrine, being good people, it’s not enough.  
We have decided that having a good church club is not enough.  
Good fellowship, it’s not enough.

We have decided that having good programs is not enough.  
That change without transformation is intolerable, and staying the same is not an option! 
We have decided that gifting without character is futile.  

We have decided that singing songs without worshiping is hollow, and having meetings without God showing up is pointless.  

We have decided that having faith without works is not enough, and having works without love is not acceptable.
We have decided that reading about the book of acts without living the book of acts is unthinkable.
We have decided that nothing short of His kingdom come and His will be done in our world as it is in heaven will satisfy.  
We have decided that we will not be satisfied until our world freaks out and cries out, “those who turned the world upside down have come here too.”
