We as Christians can easily stagnate in our forward march. We find something that spiritually works and then camp right there. But God is a fan of forward movement. As a result, in the life of Christian service, there can be a lot of goodbyes to old dusty patterns and fresh hellos to new places of dependence and challenge. God is calling His church forward — and to go where God is taking us we need to put off our old ways and be ready to adapt His thrilling new ways.
