Welcome to "Therefore the Cross"

When studying the Bible there is a basic rule you are taught and that is whenever you see a therefore, you are supposed to ask what is it there for? So therefore, I have been bantering around for about a year different names and phrases for a potential church plant that I feel God beginning to cultivate in me. So, one that I'm serious bantering about is "Therefore the Cross".

Why? Because this encapsulates the missional nature of the Church. What is the Church there for - the cross. What is the cross there for - the mission of Jesus. What is the Church there for - the mission of Jesus. Now, i'm still developing this out. But, I feel like this shows what the church is all about and when explaining the name of the church you have the vision of the church and you also can have the gospel included in your name. Plus, I just think it sounds cool.

But this blog will be completely devoted to my journey on this and my journey and lessons that I learn from being a young missional leader. So, this may get updated often or not so often. We will see what happens. But God is continually showing me insights on how to love the city of Fullerton and live out His mission in this city. So I'm sure I'll be posting here on a regular basis.
