Do you want something more in your Christian life? You want your life to make a difference for God? Do you want to experience, in a deep and unmistakable way, exactly what Jesus meant when He announced: "I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly" (John 10:10 NASB)? You know you have life in Christ -- that's a gift! What you are hungry for is the abundantly part. Are you really fed up with being part of a Christianity that claims to be life transforming but too often looks like nothing more than a religious subculture that promises much but delivers little?
It's time for holy ambition. It's time for Christians who will live up to their claims and live out their calling. For a church that shakes the world. For a people of God who make a difference. It's time for us to be what God wants: people who will let Him do a powerful work in them and through them!
