Don't be a dead lone ranger

Ed Stetzer writes in his blog:

In Fast Company Magazine, two studies were compared--one in which "90% of heart patients can't change their lifestyles" and another in which 77% of patients did. The difference? The latter provided "support groups with other patients, as well as attention from dieticians, psychologists, nurses," etc. In other words, left alone, most patients choose death over change. When in a setting with relational support, the numbers are almost reversed.

And in my personal experiences, we saw the same pattern in the ministry--those who changed often did so with help from others.

It is imperative that we collaborate and work together bring our friends to Jesus and pray so that we can all be transformed and changed with the gospel of Jesus.
