Greetings coaches of New Hope.

Let’s emmanuelize the characteristics of living and leaving a legacy. Pastor Wayne shared this with our staff:

“The Legacy of New Hope”:

1. Resourcefulness - just go for it, even when you have nothing. If all you have is zeal, use it. Quoting Taylor Hudson, “God’s will done God’s way will receive God’s supply.”

2. Spirit of Evangelism - everything is connected to a soul. Don’t get involved in religion, get involved in the harvest, and everything will begin to make sense.

3. Believe in People - some one believed in each of us. People come with a desire, not always fully developed.

4. Base everything on Scripture - don’t soften to spiritualize and attract more people. Model yourselves after Jesus and stay true to God’s Word.

5. Give people hope - not guilt and condemnation like the Pharisees. Keep the Good News the Good News without compromising. Be gracious and share hope.

“If you keep your spirit up, the worst situation will get better. If you’re spirit is down, the best situation gets worse.”

Pastor Wayne Cordeiro
