This sermon hit me this week with force.  I’m not sure if it is in this YouTube clip or not, but at one point Mark talks about the fact that some people who have ministries that aren’t growing don’t need a new plan.  They need humility.  I’ve been trying to think up a new plan, and feel that this is possibly a word to me that a new plan is not needed.  I feel that we need humility-driven prayer.  The kind of prayer that is driven by an overwhelming realization of the futility of trying to build a church that Christ promised He would build Himself.
