Large California Church On The Edge Of Great Influence
California has been in the news much of late, especially because of its financial problems. Yet, in spite of the challenges, many of its churches continue to grow at a good pace.
Mal Fletcher recently visited one of the fastest growing churches in Southern California, the Abundant Living Family Church, led by Pastor Diego Messa.
The church is only 15 years old, yet already has the largest, multi-faceted building complex of any church in its region and is constantly investing in community-oriented projects.
Pastor Diego said: "Mal's visit here is prophetic. I have been praying about how we can use all this resource and influence God has brought to us."
"Little did I know, when I started praying this way, that God would send someone like Mal with so many answers. This has been some of the best preaching and teaching I have ever heard."
During his brief visit, Mal said: "I hope that I will be able to have an ongoing association with his group of people. The atmosphere is alive with anticipation, yet there is a real sense of 'it's time to impact city and beyond'."
"I meet leaders in various corners of the world who are saying much the same thing as my new friend Diego: it's time for us to use the resource in people and finance that we've been given, to reshape the culture of cities and even nations in line with kingdom values."

Thanks for the great article on celebrities, Mal. The world says, 'You need to look after No. 1.' Jesus says, 'Put God first and then He'll look after you.' I know which I'd rather do!

Your social comment gives me great insight into things that don't make a lot of sense to me...
