My New Year…….WILL Be better than yours!

on Dec 28 in Blog by Josh Meadows

Maybe the title of this sounds a little arrogant, but please forgive me, I’m excited, that I get to bring in the new year, in AFRICA! Yea, that’s right, I get to bring in the new year in Kenya, sleeping in Orphanges, running with lions, and tackling Hippo’s for fun? Actually, I will be living in an orphange for a week, but disregard the rest, as I want NO part of a Lion!

I really have no motive here, other than, let me just be real and share a few things. There is no other way, that I would want to bring in the new year, than to be in Africa, with orphans who have been abused and neglected. I mean, I can finally say, I’m going to be, “Living the dream”! Please pray for our team, as I really only know 2 people, and I just want to look like Jesus, in everything I say, do, and may my heart reflect His humility! I don’t know if you know about the IDP camps, but I actually get to preach in an IDP camp, these people have been forgotten and ignored, basically the product of a corrupt Kenyan Government…Please pray that I can preach hope and faith to these people! I absolutely pray that God wrecks the place!!!!!!

Can I just challenge you for a minute? Sorry, but it’s kinda my blog…so I guess I can..here goes. Make 2012 about Jesus, I mean all about Jesus! Strive to love like Him, live like Him, serve like Him, look like Him, and respond like Him….all through the POWER of the spirit! Seriously, you and I have lived life on our own terms for WAY to long, WHAT IF, just for one day at a time, we would begin to loose life? Seriously, give more, serve more, love more, wait more, reflect more, and just be all about some Jesus. Read the word for yourself, get to know Jesus for yourself, learn how to listen to the spirit for yourself….and just simply fall in Love with Jesus, because Jesus ALWAYS ALTERS WHERE HE IS PRESENT. HE ALTERS DECISIONS, LIFE CHANGES, SINFUL PATTERNS, WAYS OF THINKING…….Is Jesus altering your life?

For so long I lived as if He didn’t exist, although I claimed to know Him..what a miserable way to life. Thanks be to God, i’m finding life now, because Jesus is my Lord!

Thought: If you always do, what you’ve always done, you’ll always be, what you’ve always been. Change it up, take a risk, fall at the feet of Jesus in helpless humility! I DARE YOU!

  • What most impresses me about Josh is his hunger. He is hungry for God, for wisdom, for learning, and for opportunities to serve God by using his talents and abilities for the sake of the gospel. His desire is to make Jesus famous by preaching the gospel and discipling men. I am excited to see what God does with Josh Meadows in the days and years to come. Clayton King
  • I met Josh when he was a junior in high school at an FCA event I was speaking at. Over the years God has graciously allowed me to mentor Him. It is awesome to see him transform right before my eyes. My consistent message to him has always been, and will always be, ‘may your character out run your gifts. God will use Josh to leave a life-transforming impact on your students. Derwin Gray
  • I have served for 17 years in student ministry and Josh meadows Is one of my favorite stories to tell. I have watched Josh grow from high schoo, through college and now a powerful man of God. He communicates God’s word with passion and his sincerity grabs the attention of the students. Josh has a unique personality that especially speaks to young men who have trouble finding relevance in church. Josh Meadows is the real deal and I would recommend him for any event that desires students to walk away challenged and changed. Tim Brady
  • Having spend countless hours with Josh on the road, watching him preach and interact with kids, I have no doubt that God has anointed his ministry. Sure he is a good speaker, but know this: Josh trusts God. And not with just the message he brings, but with the way he lives his life. You can count on Josh to speak the truth of the Gospel with unmarked passion, authentic energy, and REAL LOVE. Nathan Smith
