The document is a poem calling upon the Holy Spirit to revive the church. It references how the Holy Spirit came at Pentecost and empowered the early Christians to spread the gospel despite persecution. It asks the Holy Spirit to revive the church again as it is needed in dark times, stirring believers and moving among them with love and power. The poem repeats refrains calling upon the Holy Spirit to revive the church today.
We have a whole bunch of "buts" that we allow to keep us from Jesus. We have ideas of what "church" should and shouldn't be but most of us have never tried to figure it out with scripture.

Catholic Schools: Centers of the New EvangelizationJonathan Sullivan
My presentation from the 2014 National Catholic Educational Association Convention and Expo:
For fifty years the Church has exhorted the faithful to engage in a “new evangelization.” The call to be missionaries is especially relevant for Catholic schools where young people are formed as disciples of Christ. This presentation for Catholic school teachers and administrators helps focus their work in the context of the New Evangelization. Participants will gain an understanding of the New Evangelization and learn steps for integrating it into the classroom and school community.
Slideshow presented at the public informational meeting for our new congregation. Includes summaries of our mission, beliefs, worship practices, and an honest assessment of where we are and where we are going.
You are drifting away from God You are drifting away from the path of right Into treacherous places as dark as night. . You are drifting away with no part in sight. You are drifting away from God
I like the old time preaching, praying, singing, shouting, I like the old time reading of God’s word; I like to hear these old time “hallelujahs,’ glory, I like the old time worship of the Lord. Worship of the Lord.
It pays to serve Jesus each day,
It pays ev’ry step of the way…
Tho’ the pathway to glory may sometimes be drear,
You’ll be happy each step of the way.
CHORUS:
Yes I’ll run to the cross, At its foot all my burden lay Jesus carries them all and frees me, What a sweet, sweet relief; That I get there on my knees I’ll take it all to Jesus and take His place.
CHORUS:
God needs us to show the lost the way. He needs us to work and fast and pray Now the time is growing late, We must never hesitate, God needs to us to work everyday.
STANZA 1:
Oh, come to the Lord today, Come sinner without delay, Oh give Him your heart, I pray, Why carelessly wait? Soon you will be called to die. Poor soul to the Saviour fly; You know that the end is nigh, Why carelessly wait?
CHORUS:
Not what I wish to be, Nor where I wish to go, For who am I, That I should choose my way, The Lord shall choose for me; T'is better far I know, So let Him bid me go or stay.
CHORUS:
How many time have I said, I loved Jesus, But turn a deaf ear to a need, How many times have I said, I’m a Christian but never one soul did I lead, How many luxuries have I passed, By to have more to give to the LORD, Jesus I promise as long as I live from now on, I’m going to do more.
CHORUS:
Quiet, please, too much has already been said, Just let it be, and learn to listen instead . For sometimes through the silence. Big problem becomes small. If you don’t have something good to say Say nothing at all.
CHORUS:
We’ve got the power in the name of Jesus, We’ve got the power in the name of the Lord; Though satan rages we cannot be defeated; We’ve got the power in the name of the Lord.
CHORUS:
But thanks be to God Who gives us the victory, Victory all the time, There’s no battle we face today, That we won’t overcome, We’re sure of victory, Victory all the time
CHORUS:
His grace reaches me, Yes, His grace reaches me, And t’will last thru eternity; Now I’m under His control and I’m happy in my soul, Just to know that His grace reaches me.
CHORUS:
If you see your brother standing by the road, With a heavy load from the seeds he’s sowed And if you see your sister falling by the way, Just stop and say, “ You’re going the wrong way.
CHORUS:
In the Lord, In the Lord, We are members of one family in the Lord, With the grace of God to guide us, And Christ to walk beside us, Let us march together in the Lord.
CHORUS:
Oh the king is coming The king is coming I can hear the trumpet sounding And His blessed face I see Oh the king is coming The king is coming Praise God He’s coming for me
CHORUS:
Sweet will of God, Still fold me closer, Till I am wholly lost in Thee; Sweet will of God, still fold me closer, Till I am wholly lost in Thee.
CHORUS:
Sustaining grace! Till the end of it all, sustaining grace, Till the last sunset falls, Always there Everlasting enough to see us through, Sustaining grace! Is there for me and you.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
