I have been thinking a lot lately about how do I as a Pastor help our local body of believers to connect Sunday to Monday. It seems that we all are really good about going to church getting excited but then when Monday comes Life starts all over again and we forget what we learned on Sunday. What would happen if we connected Sunday to Monday and then Tuesday and then well you get the idea.
My first stab at this idea is this, we need to lead people to a deeper relationship with Jesus beyond Sunday. Another words, if someone doesn't pick up their Bible except for church on the weekend, then that person will never connect Sunday to Monday.
I would be curious to hear your thoughts on how to make this happen in the lives of believers! Comments??????

People need to make a decision in their life. Do they want to have a closer relationship with God or not? Is it important to them? If so, then they need to commit to reading the bible or praying daily. I find that waking up 30 minutes early before everyone else each day works best for me. It's quiet in the home. I use that time to either read a couple of passages or if there is something happening in my life that is stressing me out, I pray about it. I love this time! Afterwards I feel at peace and I'm ready to tackle anything thrown at me during the rest of the day. It's hard to get people to make that step to walk closer with God on days other than Sunday. I don't believe that it's anything that you or I can convince people to do. They have to make that commitment on their own and many times it's an event that happens in their life that opens their eyes to God!
