It is worth reading Stuart Briscoe’s book, Flowing Streams: Journeys of a Life Well Lived, if only to read the final chapter, “Stones from the Stream,” where he summarizes five basic principles that may be helpful to Christians and local churches. Here is a quote from that section.
We have to address these people where they are and then do one thing – – lead them to Jesus by introducing them to who Jesus is (eternally), what he has done (historically), what he is doing (contemporaneously), and what he plans to do (finally and irrevocably),and them show them how to live in the conscious enjoyment of his work on the cross for them, the reality of his presence within them, and the certainty of their promised future with him in eternity (constantly)! . . . At all costs, whatever developments and innovations come the way of the church, we must stay on message. His message—all of it. Stuart Briscoe (page 197)
My dad used this quote from you in his lesson for our adult Bible fellowship on Sunday. We’re studying Acts.
