In Spring 2009, 5 ordinary people gathered around a dining room table with a vision to reach  spiritually hurting and hungry people with Jesus’ love.  God is in the business of using ordinary people to do extraordinary things, and we thank Him for the privilege of taking us on this exciting ride. The following  are some video highlights of what occurred. If you  are searching for a church, or have never attended church but are wondering if God is really out there  really out there, come check us out Sundays @ 11am at 1180 Spruce Dr in Mountainside.

Tomorrow we are sponsoring the Alpha Course at 5PM, We are a tiny group of 8, but we have big plans for a huge turnout. How many unchurched people are we expecting to attract? Let’s just put it this way: My wife cooked enough chicken to feed 100 people, so if this Mountainside church outreach thingy blows up in our faces, I’m gonna be forced to eat chicken for the next year. Can somebody pass the honey mustard?

Mountainside Church Alpha Checklist

I’m writing this on Saturday  evening, and I’m beat and have nervous expectation.  We’ve done everything we could to make our first outreach a success, and so now I’m just gonna rest in God’s hands. What else can I do?

  • We educated our team on the imporatance of friendship evangelism
  • We attended church planting seminars
  • We trained our small group leaders
  • We practiced Servant evangelism in Mountainside and the surrounding central Jersey towns
  • We distributed tons of flyers
  • We invited friends and family
  • we fasted and prayed

Tomorrow this Mountainside church experiment will either sink or swim. I’m counting on the latter: I can’t stand chicken.

It’s as simple as that. The commitment level of these people, some of whom are not even Christ followers at this time, utterly amazes me. Believe me, it’s not easy planting a church from scratch in NJ. As one other church planter from the South bemoaned to me recently, “This ain’t Christian Wonderland like it is in the Bible Belt.”  Hello? This is freakin’ New Jersey, okay?

In all honesty, there have been several times in the past few weeks that I have felt like giving up. My faith has been battered and tried. But last Sunday was a turning point. Last Sunday we were out in the bitter cold handing out flower seeds and information about our up and coming Alpha course to passersby in the highways and byways of Mountainside, Scotch Plains, Union, Westfield, and Watchung. I wanted to stop after an hour. Not them. They wanted to keep going, and going and going, just like that bunny battery dude. That’s when I knew this tiny Oasis TEAM was something special and that God is about to do some amazing things.

Hey, I’m not stupid enough to think it has anything to do with me. It doesn’t. However, it has ALL to do with faith and the power of vision. Our vision is simple: We will compassionately share Jesus with hungry and hurting people here in Union County New Jersey, and all around world. The fact that this little TEAM is naive enough to actually believe we can pull this off with God’s power is the reason we are about to turn this place upside down for Jesus. Stay tuned.

Thank you guys, for putting people and the Great Comission first before your own needs. How rare is that!

Mountainside Church Strategy
