Seek God with us September 4-14!
This Wednesday, 10 Days begins across New England and across the country. Here's some important and timely info on 10 Days, as well as some encouragement!
An Exhortation: Seek God with Us!
10 Days is a time for the Body of Christ to come together, but also a time to draw near to God as individuals. From the evening of Sept 4 through the evening of Sept 14, we encourage you to:

Return to the Northfield Campus
Some of you will remember that the first 10 Day gatherings in 2007 took place at the Northfield Campus, a place well-known as the burial site of D.L. Moody and the point of origin for the Student Volunteer Movement. This year, the current owners (National Christian Foundation) have opened up Northfield again for 10 Days. The 10 Days in Western MA will be based at the Northfield Campus.
Kansas City 10 Days!?
Several weeks ago, I was in Kansas City. As part of the trip, I was sharing vision for 10 Days with several people throughout the city, hopeful that next year, KC might join with us.
Earlier this week, a Kansas City lawyer contacted me. He now leads a global orphan ministry and has been having some amazing experiences with God. The bottom line: he is calling for a special season of prayer from Sept. 4-14, with special gatherings on Sept. 5 and Sept 14. He had absolutely no knowledge of what was happening in other places during those same dates.
I'm not sure what all this means, but I think God's up to something!

Pastor Mike McBride
Did you notice the purpose of Christian unity according to Jesus' prayer? Jesus is not simply praying for unity for unity's sake. The very structure of the sentence communicates a purpose. Jesus is asking the Father to do one thing so that, or in order that, this other thing will happen. He prays, give them unity, so that "the world may believe that you sent me." Christian unity is not simply for the peace of the church as it stands now, but for the purpose of witnessing to the world that Jesus is the Messiah sent from the Father. Despite the example of the disagreement between Paul and
Barnabas in Acts 15, the Apostles demonstrated a remarkable unity despite their diverse backgrounds: Peter commends Paul's teaching (2 Peter 3:15), they engage difficult theological issues and come to agreement (Acts 11 and 15), and they proclaim the gospel with amazing consistency. And the world took notice.
