JOHN
Good Morning! I’m John Branning, Lead Pastor of Central United Methodist Church. “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth” Genesis 1:1
As you read the opening lines of the Book of Genesis, you read the beginning of your story. Your story is as unique as the fingerprints on every human hand. These stories are made up of the people, places, and moments in a person’s life that make them who and what they are.
Have you ever pondered the fact that no one will ever live the same life that you do? I want to ask you a few questions about your story. First, I want you to identify the single most influential person in your life. This person has had a profound impact on the person that you are now. They taught you what was most important and what was least important. I bet that you think of them often if they are no longer living or you make contact with them daily if they are. Am I right?
Secondly, I want you to identify who you are impacting in that same way. Believe it or not, there is someone at this very moment that you are leaving your legacy to the world through. As a follower of Jesus, don’t make them believe that you are without spot or blemish. As a follower of Jesus show them the self-disciplined life of a warrior. As a follower of Jesus, know that your story is connected to the story of God.
