Scott Wilson (website) is the author of two books: “The Next Level: A Message of Hope for Hard Times” and “Steering Through Chaos: Mapping a Clear Direction in the midst of transition and change”. His latest book, “Act Normal: Moving Compassion from Niche to Norm” will be released in the fall.

Act Normal
What is normal?
Normal is all about the context.


Normal


Not Normal

What is the normal for the people of God?
I want you to consider Normal in light of who our God is he’s the almighty, all powerful, creator of the universe who made everything that is out of nothing.

Compassion is normal
It’s not a niche it should be the norm.
Love isn’t a gift of the Spirit, it’s a fruit of the Spirit.

Evangelism is normal
We have to model it to our churches.
Who is it that you grieve over in your heart?

Struggles are normal
Testing always precedes promotion.
Struggles are a normal part of our spiritual growth, if we know that then we will think about struggles differently.

Miracles are normal
Miracles are part of the process of God revealing himself to our church and community.
We have to help our people to know this is real.

I wonder what it would be like if we really believed God was real and that he really was on the throne and that he really does answer prayer.
Sometimes our churches are so focused on getting the community to come to our church, instead of our church going to community.
Sometimes we focus more on growing, and getting bigger more than we do working in the community.

Instead of us doing our Fall Festival and the city doing a Fall Festival. Let’s do one together.
