We're Going To Need More Bricks

Building a church from scratch is much like building a brick wall.  It takes the right tools, elements, more time than you think it will, and a lot of sweat equity.  The main elements required in building this wall are bricks and mortar.  In building a church plant you need two kinds of people; bricks and mortar.  

Bricks are people with a firm foundation in Christ.  They are the ones you can count on to lead and serve.  While not perfect, they are solid.  You can put things on top of them and trust that they can take a bit of the load.  For The Table, bricks are people who love the vision of the church and devoted to the community so much they are ready to work for it.

Mortar are the people who are seekers.  They play a viable part in holding the community together and building it, but they need bricks around them to solidify the building that is The Table.

We have seen God draw people who I would classify as "mortar" to The Table.  This is great!  It has always been our hope to start growing new disciples from the beginning.  However, as I (The Jobsite Foreman???) look at our project I see that we need more bricks.  We are working to attract a few more of these committed people to The Table, and I ask as this month's major prayer request you would join us in praying for this.
