Redeemer Fellowship Celebrates 5 Years!
Ephesians 3:10 - “so that through the church the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known…”
Redeemer Fellowship celebrated our five-year anniversary on September 9 this year. God has been very good to us as a young church family in Newark, Delaware. As I think about the past five years and all that God has done, I can’t help but pause and celebrate the gift that church planting is and how powerfully God uses it for his glory.
I don’t even mean to celebrate a particular way of church planting (though I wouldn’t want to do it with any other denomination than Sovereign Grace!). But rather, I want to celebrate the act of church planting in any form. Whether in perceived ‘strength’ or ‘weakness’; whether with 30 or 300; whether near or far; the planting of new Gospel preaching churches is a primary and powerful way that God continues to do his good work in this world and in our lives.
Church planting multiplies the manifold wisdom of God.
Joel Shorey is the Lead Pastor of Redeemer Fellowship, Newark, Delaware, USA.
