Breakfast with the Works

Breakfast with The Works™ is a community gathering that allows for public issues to be shared from a faith perspective in general, and an Applied Christian Ethic, in particular. It is the purpose of Breakfast with The Works™ to provide a space of moral sponsorship for community opinion leaders to voice commentary regarding current events that impact the life of the local community in an ethical, cultural, social, spiritual, and economic context. It is our hope by providing this safe space of shared continuous learning that we will encourage people to “come now, and let us reason together”, in a concerted effort to Communicate Whole Leadership™. An Intentional Community of Faith, Civic, Business, Government, Non-Profit, and Creative Professionals and Scholars.

The Spirit of A Closer

Jesus the Christ is the ultimate closer, the author and finisher of our faith; Jesus closed the game, not by going for the kill but by going for eternal life.  Jesus, the ultimate closer pushed past the killer instincts of His enemies to complete His mission through Resurrection.  The Adversary thought that victory and a championship was in hand, when it was pronounced that Jesus was crucified and had died on an old, rugged cross; but God through Jesus, demonstrated power over death and let’s us know that there is life after death!  We will be resurrected, redeemed, restored and renewed in our lives; physically, spiritually, emotionally and financially because of the Spirit that exist within the life of all believers.  We have POWER over DEATH.

So, when it seems like you are at your end, get ready to shout, worship, sing, dance, declare, celebrate and go all in; because it is true…the outcome is we win!

We have to stay in position long enough to get victory over the Enemy; Ephesians 6:12 in the New Revised Standard Version shares, “for our struggle is not against enemies of blood and flesh, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers of this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places”.

We are called to stand boldly, we are called to stand proudly, we are called to stand humbly.  Let us go forward, it’s a new season.

“O victory in Jesus,
My Savior, forever.
He sought me and bought me
With His redeeming blood;
He loved me ere I knew Him,
And all my love is due Him,
He plunged me to victory,
Beneath the cleansing flood.”
-Eugene Monroe Bartlett 1939
