Because we understand our fearful responsibility to the Lord, we work hard to persuade others. God knows we are sincere, and I hope you know this, too. Are we commending ourselves to you again? No, we are giving you a reason to be proud of us, so you can answer those who brag about having a spectacular ministry rather than having a sincere heart. If it seems we are crazy, it is to bring glory to God. And if we are in our right minds, it is for your benefit. Either way, Christ’s love controls us. Since we believe that Christ died for all, we also believe that we have all died to our old life. He died for everyone so that those who receive his new life will no longer live for themselves. Instead, they will live for Christ, who died and was raised for them.

God’s desire is for you to move onward and upward in every arena of life: spiritually, emotionally, in influence... It’s just part of who He is! As you grow and develop spiritual maturity, your priorities change; you discover your unique calling and responsibility to represent Christ well in your world so that you can one day hear Him say, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”
In this five-day reading plan, discover why Christian innovation is not simply a human effort to improve or create new value. It is part of the Creator’s identity and therefore part of ours, as His creation. To innovate, Christians follow the inspiration of the Holy Spirit to better serve others, point people to Christ, and steward what God has given us to restore this world to Him, for His glory.
