Syke Chapel 4 June 2006 - pentecost

"Valley of Dry Bones" from Book of Books, Trevor Dennis


A balloon only becomes a balloon once air has been breathed into it.  A group of people only become the church when the Spirit of God is breathed into their lungs. There are many who believe that the church is dead - just old bones drying in the sun. I believe that God is breathing new life into the church and we need to dream our dreams. What are your dreams for the church?


"Wind & Fire" from Book of Books, Trevor Dennis

Many of our dreams will involve having full churches - but the church grew from small beginnings and perhaps we are meant to be small - like salt, or yeast or a single light in the darkness. These few people were called out from their fear to change the world. "Church people worry that the world might change the church; Kingdom people work to see the church change the world." How can the church change the world?

Here is a dream, a vision a hope, a desire. Perhaps it can be a dream for the church. I don't know what Bruce Springsteen thinks about the church, or where he is on his spiritual journey. But I know I want to belong to a church that shares his  Land of Hope and Dreams

How does it sound?

This church
Carries saints and sinners
This church
Carries losers and winners
This church
Carries whores and gamblers
This church
Carries lost souls
This church
Dreams will not be thwarted
This church
Faith will be rewarded

Time for Syke Chapel to take your dreams and change the world.
