I’VE BEEN THINKING…

… that the most noteworthy event of the week happened on a baseball diamond. Derek Jeter, the New York Yankees shortstop surpassed the record for base hits that had been held by Lou Gehrig since 1937. In over 7 decades, no Yankee had as many hits –not Babe Ruth, Joe Dimaggio, Mickey Mantle. No one. Until now.
What does it take, to achieve a mark like this? At that level of competition, no one achieves this landmark on just luck and talent. What’s required is a longevity that is the result of self-discipline, diligent training, and focused intensity. So what’s that got to do with us, when we’re sitting in church?
There is a book about the Christian life that has one of the best titles going -‘A Long Obedience in the Same Direction’. A Christian is part of a 2000 year old movement that continues to change the world. And Wellington Square has a momentum going that is worth continuing. So Monday’s congregational meeting will mark another year passed, and point our focus toward the future.
I don’t know how they measure ‘records’ in the spiritual life. Let’s just stay diligent and focused together, loving God and loving people. I think that’ll make this church a big hit for Jesus’ team.
With love, ORVILLE
