Hall of Fame coach, the late Vince Lombardi ,would begin every training camp with this statement, “Gentlemen, this is a football.” Then, he would drill them in the fundamentals over and over. These were professional athletes who had played football most of their lives. They were not going to win because they learned something new, but because they reinforced what they already knew. That’s what makes a winning team.
It is also what makes a championship church. So many churches are looking for the latest fad and innovative method—a quick fix to take them to the next level.
I am all about creativity and innovation, but we also must be aware that God never changes, His Word never changes, and there are some fundamentals of our faith that dare not change. I am going to coach you in six disciplines this week that God will bless, in your walk with Him, in your family, and in the church.
