5 Weeks til launch, 5 reasons to be excited!

With under 5 weeks until the public launch of Manly Life Church, here are my 5 reasons to be hopeful and excited for this new church;

1. We know our God and he is faithful! He has revealed himself in Jesus and throughout history. Our God is full of love, breathes new life on the broken, and moves in every generation of his people who are up for the adventure of faith.

2. A community of extraordinary people are already gathering! I could tell you something amazing about each of the 50 or so people who have come to Manly Life in our pre-launch meetings. Not that they are perfect, but they are all shaped by grace, generosity and the life Jesus gives.

3. We have heroes in the faith cheering us on! We have had support from local churches and friends around the world. It means a lot to be a part of a broader community who have modelled church and life together well.

4. What we are called to is clear! If in our meetings, our lives and our life together we can love God and love each other – it’ll turn out great. Faith, hope, love and the greatest of these is love.

5. Have you met my wife? Enough said – she is amazing!
