The answer isn’t rigidity. It’s not compromise. It’s something deeper—spiritual agility. Agility means being rooted in Christ, anchored in the Word, and unshaken by storms. Hebrews 13:8 reminds us, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” That’s our foundation.

But being rooted doesn’t mean being stuck. It means being ready—ready to move when the Spirit leads, ready to speak the language of our generation, ready to build bridges instead of walls.

Jesus met people where they were—at wells, in boats, on roads. He was always relevant, yet never diluted. That is our model.

Spiritual agility is powered by the Holy Spirit. It isn’t a skill; it’s a surrender. It’s saying, “Lord, shape me. Send me.” And when He does, we don’t just survive the change—we lead it.

So be rooted. Be agile. Be bold. The world is shifting, but our God is not. Let’s rise with faith, not fear. Let’s be salt and light—relevant, resilient, and Spirit-filled.

These are a few thoughts that weigh on my heart as I reflect on staying relevant in a fast-paced world. Generation Z—the Zoomers—need to hear the Word of the Lord. But we must speak their language, which in many ways differs from ours.

Agility places us on common ground. It opens the door. Agility, transformation, and relevance are key concepts I long to see the church grow in—not just in understanding, but in application.
