Many Christians want to be involved in the work of the gospel. They have great intentions and want to please God, but they are beset by frustration and failure. They say they have faith, but it doesn't work. How many congregations have difficulty getting past petty disagreements or become isolated from their environments? They "hold their own" but offer no real change to their communities. They measure growth by how few disruptions occur and comfort themselves that they are "growing in spirit" even if they aren't growing in number.

Many Christians want to be involved in the work of the gospel. They have great intentions and want to please God, but they are beset by frustration and failure. They say they have faith, but it doesn't work. How many congregations have difficulty getting past petty disagreements or become isolated from their environments? They "hold their own" but offer no real change to their communities. They measure growth by how few disruptions occur and comfort themselves that they are "growing in spirit" even if they aren't growing in number. The examples we find in the New Testament depict a powerful faith that turned the world upside down. It was undeniable and unmistakable. Where did it go? As we dig into Peter's recipe for a powerful faith in 2 Peter 1:5-7, you will begin to feel your environment change. Diligence and faith will sweep in like a cold front announcing a storm on the horizon. Virtue, knowledge, self-control, and persistence begin to swirl around in an upward spiral. Godliness and kindness bring God's will in heaven down to earth, just in time for love to touch down and turn the world on its end. This was how the early church changed the world, and it still works today. It won't be easy, but together we will chase this storm, take hold of it, and come away empowered by a faith that works!
