Catalyst is a community of 20-somethings who desire to get to know Jesus better. We are marrieds and un-marrieds that have realized something radical: There can be no maturity or wholeness in the Christian life apart from an immersion in and embrace of community. We desire to be such a community.

We also want to have some fun along the way. Life can be hard but it doesn't need to be dreary. Come have fun with us and meet Jesus on the way.

Monday Morning

This morning I did a few things to get me on track with the disciplines.

1)--I signed up for Daily Med (Click here to sign up).

2) I read the Luke 13 which is the reading this morning from the Bible reading schedule. This stuck out to me:
"6Then he told this parable: "A man had a fig tree, planted in his vineyard, and he went to look for fruit on it, but did not find any. 7So he said to the man who took care of the vineyard, 'For three years now I've been coming to look for fruit on this fig tree and haven't found any. Cut it down! Why should it use up the soil?'

8" 'Sir,' the man replied, 'leave it alone for one more year, and I'll dig around it and fertilize it. 9If it bears fruit next year, fine! If not, then cut it down.' "

This morning as I connect with the Lord, I have a simple prayer: "Lord, empower me to bear fruit. I want to be pleasing to you and be the person you want me to be."

I pray for all of us that the Spirit will move in our lives.

Be blessed.
