description: Pastor Mark is sitting in his office at the church. He and his wife Susan have been at the Church of Christ for nearly eight months. Sure, the church has gone through three pastors in the last five years, but somehow, Mark had thought that this time it would be different, After all, God has called him to preach at the church in this small town. But now, he was beginning to have doubts. What were the Lord’s plans for this church? Was he giving up on the people? Did He plan to allow things to go on until the church folded? Did God have special plans for this church? Was Mark and his wife a part of God’s plan? Mark was ready to give up. After all, didn’t Jesus himself say that when the people refuse to listen, shake the dust off and move on. If only God would bring someone into town to shake things up, maybe then, the people of the church would change. But Mark knew that change had to come from the inside, and most of the people have hardened their hearts. If only they could see the love of Christ, maybe then, there would be change; and then again, maybe not.
