Articles Continued (continued from page 06) “I planted, Apollos watered, but God was causing the growth. So then neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is any- thing, but God who causes the growth. Now he who plants and he who waters are one; but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor” (1 Corinthians 3:6-8, NASB) You and I are to be involved in the harvesting process whether it is plowing the field, planting seeds, watering, fertilizing, or reaping the harvest. We may not see the har- vest first hand and that’s okay, because it is God who moves a per- son from a state of unbelief to belief, we are simply His hands to serve and share His love. Rather than being consumed with only how many people came to Christ, I believe our challenge is to adjust our thinking to focus on how many people have been served and how many have heard about Jesus. And even though it may take a while, we must continue to water and tend the fields if we want to see the harvest. “Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary” (Galatians 6:9, NASB). CMA Randal and Lisa Tebeau oversee the Southeast Region as National Evangelist. (continued from page 11) • Discipleship: mentoring and growing people (Matt. 28:19; 2 Tim 2:2) • Evangelism: going out and looking for ministry opportu- nities (Matt. 28:19) In 2020, our theme is “Mission True.” The only way we will accom- plish this vision is with healthy chapters and members focused on the vision of CMA, “changing the world, one heart at a time.” Finally, a healthy chapter attracts healthy and positive peo- ple. Positive people breed positive people. Negative people breed neg- ative people. This is why it is so important to have a healthy well- balanced chapter that understands its purpose and mission. The Purpose of a Healthy Chapter is to do the following: • The chapter is a tool to accom- plish our calling • Outreach is the focus to reach- ing the lost • Reaching the lost is our com- mission • Exposure in the community is how we reach the motorcyclists CMA Jay and Jane Wilber oversee the North Central Region as National Evangelist.
