Dear Father,

“Come as you are. It does not matter to us what your circumstances are or where you’ve been, you matter to God. We hope you’ll find inside the walls of Lincoln Berean, authentic people who love God and each other. We are all imperfect, saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.”

I thank You for these words published on the website of Lincoln Berean Church of Lincoln, Nebraska.  What a call for testimonies!  Churches throughout America are filled with authentic people from all kinds of circumstances who love God and each other.  These people are imperfect, saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.  Move Your people to tell their stories!  Give the world evidence that no matter what circumstance someone finds themself in, You have a solution!

Dear Father,

I thank You for the work You are doing at Chesterfield Presbyterian Church of Chesterfield MO.

They write on their home page:

God provides all we need for life and relationship with Him…God blesses us to be part of a family—in relationship with Him and with others…God gifts us and calls us to take part in helping to push back the effects of the Fall and to be used by God to build His Kingdom.

Father, this is another call for testimonies.  A testimony is evidence that You provide all we need for life and relationship with You.  A testimony is evidence that You work through the family of believers.  A testimony is evidence that people, from all walks of life and with all kinds of baggage, can be used by You to push back the effects of the Fall.

Windsor Crossing Community Church, Chesterfield MO

Dear Father,

I thank You for what You are doing at Windsor Crossing Community Church, Chesterfield MO.  They write on their website:

By using unconventional teaching methods and various art mediums and technology, The Crossing creates experiences rooted in scripture that are both culturally relevant and deeply personal.

Father, another definition of a shared testimony online!  Testimonies published on the home page of a church website is unconventional.  It is a method of teaching about You.  It is technology.  The testimonies, rooted in scripture, can be very culturally relevant and deeply personal to people going through various crises in the local community.  I pray that You will lead churches across America to publish testimonies on their websites.

First Baptist Church, Chesterfield MO

Dear Father,

A testimony can be an opportunity for someone to discover what You have in store for them.  If someone is going through financial hardship, the testimony of how You have helped other people going through financial hardship can give assurance that You will do the same for them.

First Baptist Church of Chesterfield MO writes on their website:

Our doors and our hearts are always open and our purpose is steadfast.

Father, I thank You for their commitment!

I ask that You write more and more testimonies in this church.  Move people in the congregation to share their stories on the website, allowing people who are searching for hope in Chesterfield to find the open hearts of FBCC.  I ask for blessings this very day on their radio ministry, that You answer a prayer that they have been lifting up to You for the ministry.

Dear Father,

Lancaster Evangelical Free Church of Lancaster, PA writes on their website:

LEFC’s vision is to be a church that…goes together into our worlds with the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Father, the “good news” is not simply that Your Son came into the world to atone for our sins.  The good news is also that Your Son came into the world to rescue Peter, Sarah, Dave, Emily, Dan, and Jennifer and every other individual who places their faith in Him.  The good news is deeply personal, an encounter people with all kinds of backgrounds have experienced with a loving God.

LaCroix Church, Cape Girardeau MO

Dear Father,

“Whether our needs are spiritual, physical, relational or emotional, there are times when we need to lean on one another.”

I thank You for these words that were found on the website of LaCroix Church of Cape Girardeau, MO.

Father, when we are discouraged by experiences in our life, we lean on the comforting words of others.  There are few things that can uplift our spirit like words such as “I know.  I understand.  I’ve been there.”  The sharing and reading of testimonies is, essentially, the act of people leaning upon one another, letting each other know that You do rescue people.

The Bridge, Fresno CA

Dear Father,

Another day.  Another church website with language that reveals Your heart.

How many times have I read words similar to what I found on the website of The Bridge of Fresno, CA:

We hope you find encouragement today and that you see clearly how much God loves you. No matter where you’ve been or what your life looks like, you’re important to God and to us!

Father, such language calls for the publishing of testimonies on church websites.  Testimonies are about God’s love, no matter where someone has been or what their life looks like.  Testimonies are evidence that we are important to You.  I pray You will raise up testimonies at this church and encourage whomever You need to encourage to get those testimonies published – on the front page.  I pray You will help the hurting people in Fresno find those testimonies via online searches.
