The Rural Church

These are the day-to-day thoughts from Pastor Jeff Lawson. I pastor a Christian and Missionary Alliance Church in Battle Lake, MN. This blog will hopefully help everyone who desires to pastor a church in a rural setting...

Is it October already?


If you are a regular to my blog, sorry. Life has been going 120 miles per hour and blogging has not been a priority. In all honesty, I like to do it, but I forget about it.


Today I am in the local high school working as a substitute teacher. I think this is a good way to get involved in the community. Every town that I have pastored, I have substituted in the schools. It is also a neat extra source of income.


This week we are sending out 7000 flyers to the community to kick off a new series that I am beginning. It is called Desperate Households. In a 48 hour span I had three separate couples come in for counselling. Each of them had the same theme. They live in fancy houses with new cars. they give the appearance that everything is perfect... Then you go inside of their home... Things are not as they appear.

I will be covering topics like relationships, sex, raising children, and finances. God wants to be a part of every area of our lives. He is able to help us. I would appreciate your prayers as we reach out to our community.
