The incarnation is not just an event; it also established an agenda, a set of plans to accomplish a goal. God's agenda is for the church to be an incarnational community or earth, so that our very presence would reveal his grace and truth-laden glory.
-- Paul David Tripp, Instruments in the Redeemer's Hands

What is my agenda? Do I have my own agenda, or am I folding my heart and soul into the agenda that God has for his church. Am I holding myself out or am I throwing by lot in with God?

And if I am not, why? Do I have a better idea? Is my own agenda more important? What am I protecting?
