This weekend is Vision Weekend at PCC. I'm stoked to share the vision that God has given to me for PCC. It's the vision of our house!Don't miss my vision talk entitled: The 4G Network. Together we will discover what God really wants us to do in and through us as we purpose to lead people into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ.
Let me share a couple reasons why we talk a lot about vision at PCC.
The Value of Vision:
1. Visions creates CLARITY.
- That's why we are commanded to "write the vision, make it plain on tablets, so he may run who reads it." Habakkuk 2:2
- In a growing church there are many new people who need to know what the church is about, where we are going, what we value, etc.
- There are also people who have been around for awhile that need to be reminded about the vision in the house. Like Bill Hybels says, "Vision leaks." It's like a tire and we all need to be filled up and fired up often.
2. Visions creates UNITY.
- It gets everyone on the same page in the playbook.
- Proverbs 29:18 says, "Where there is no prophetic vision the people cast off restraint."
- Vision gets everyone headed in the same direction. It creates alignment around a unified cause.
- Many churches, like many families, will often become stale, stagnant and divided because there is no vision in the house.
- If people don't know what the vision is, they will create their own.
- When you have more than one vision ... that's called division.
