When I look at this picture I see hope. Hope for a city called Atlanta. Hope in the local church. Hope in revival taking place at Buckhead Church. Hope that career Christians will retire and find that spark again. Hope that the thousands inside these walls will flood outside these walls and create a movement. Hope that God knows what He is doing. Hope in authenticity finding her way into the hearts of every person in that room. Hope not in Andy Stanley. Hope not in Jeff Henderson. Hope not in the amazing leaders and prophets God has called to this community.
But hope solely in the name of Jesus Christ.
Hope

    Wow. Dude I feel like I could write so much. BC has helped to change my life (for the better) in so many ways. I’m with you. I think the hope is one reason I keep coming back. How do we create that movement?

    It’s a beautiful picture, Los. I’m deeply encouraged too.

    Say hello to Brad Horton for me. He’s a friend.

    Outstanding blog…continue to keep us focus on the only true HOPE…Jesus Christ. At this time in our nation, I am convinced that the only Hope for transformation is in lives which have been transformed by the amazing power of God through Jesus Christ. He is the ONLY hope!! Dios te bendiga. Con todo mi amor, Papi
