The Four "R's"

I thought I would unpack a bit what I call “The Four R’s”, which are part of my profile.

Over the next week or so I will take each of the elements one at a time a do a little further unpacking as I believe the 4 “R’s” are an essential part of The Journey.

But first, here are the Four “R’s” in their entirety:

Revival: The church impacting our communities in such a way that people repent and come to faith in Jesus.

Renewal: The church, the followers of Jesus are renewed, refreshed and rejuvenated in their personal relationship with Jesus and passionately pursue Him.

Reconciliation: Where we, as followers of Jesus, bring healing to all who Papa God puts in our path and, where we can and as much as it lay within our power to do so, bring healing, unity and reconciliation to those (both within and outside the church) who have been wounded by the past errors of the church.

Reformation: A refining, transformational process of more fully and rightfully representing Jesus, the Kingdom of God and the whole Word of God in service, worship and doctrine.
