This is a new and awesomely exciting initiative!  I have a vision of people in churches around the globe “lifting” their leaders like Aaron and Hur lifted Moses’ hands!  In order to attain this dream I am currently working at finding, equipping, and encouraging “pew people” to lift their church leaders!  Interested?  If so, let me come to your church to show you how!  Email me at: Lon@AcornMinistries.com

What is a lifter?  Lifters understand that the health of the church depends upon the health of its leaders.  Therefore, a lifter intentionally works to build up the leaders in the church.    Lifters understand that there are many different ways to effectively lift their leaders...

1Thessalonians 5:12-13 (The Message)

And now, friends, we ask you to honor those leaders who work so hard for you, who have been given the responsibility of urging and guiding you along in your obedience. Overwhelm them with appreciation and love!

1Thessalonians 5:11

...encourage one another and build each other up...

Hebrews 13:17

Obey your leaders and submit to their authority. They keep watch over you as men who must give an account. Obey them so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no advantage to you.              

I began this blog in 2006 for the purpose of encouraging people in their daily walk with Jesus.  1Thessalonians 5:11 says, "...encourage one another and build each other up..."  Please let me build you up in your walk as you lift your pastors by clicking on this link:    THE BUILD UP!

“Make this your common practice: Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you can live together whole and healed. The prayer of a person living right with God is something powerful to be reckoned with.”  (James 5:16 MSG)  An awesome way to build up your pastor is through prayer.  It is a simple and powerful way to make a difference.  And, we would like to be a part of your prayers.  Please check out our:  PRAYER ROOM
