Tales of the Movement

People of the Movement, take a minute and record what you have seen God doing in your churches and communities in the comments section of this post.

We are working on a better forum for sharing what God is doing through you, but for now this will have to do. As I bounce around Facebook and Twitter, I see that there is a real stirring. Finding ways to see what is going on will really help push the Movement along.

Looking forward to seeing what you share.

We are a movement,

Ryan

To the youth @ Cedar Creek United Methodist Church last night I issued a challenge to the revolutionaries! I asked them what would it look like if we did things outside the walls of Cedar Creek United Methodist Church? Don't you ever get tired of just eating snacks and playing games? Don't you ever feel like we should be doing more? When you describe this youth group, don't you want to be able to say,"We do stuff, stuff that matters!"

I said I would lead the way for us to become Faces of a Revolution, that those of us apart of the Bastrop/Cedar Creek Community shall not be faces in the crowd any longer!

In my own personal life I have been ruined for Christ. I can not do anything else but follow him. ... Read More

I go to church at UUMC and recently joined. It took me 2 years to find UUMC, but I've felt at home(away from home) ever since. Needless to say I was a little sad that I would be missing out on 6 weeks at the U to be down here in Harlingen for an away rotation for my 3rd year clerkship. I had a feeling, though, that God wanted me to be here. Sure enough, the doctor I work with runs a Christian-based clinic - a refreshing concept after hearing conflicting viewpoints from faculty regarding whether religion + work is professional or not. My very first day, after treating an 86 year old woman for joint pain, we prayed with her as she accepted Jesus Christ for the first time in her life. Powerful stuff. Successful first day? You betcha! We pray with every patient at the end of their visit, and we pray as an office and read scripture before the day begins. I am not eloquent enough to describe what it is like getting to pray with my patients - feeling God's presence in anything is... well, AWESOME. I'm so thankful for this experience here to show me that I do not have to try to separate who I am as a Christian from how I will one day practice as a physician. Gotta admit: I still miss the U. I suppose video podcasts will do until I get back to SA.
