Weekly Rundown (4.12.09)

• Great day today at RBCC!  Our staff and volunteers did an amazing job executing all of our services and I even managed to preach < 40 minutes :)


• Here's the link to the opening video from today.


• Today's message was just a clear, basic message on why the resurrection matters to us ... we would be "dead" in our sins & stuck in our sin nature without it.  Our goal for today was simply for people to know, understand, and be able to respond to the power of the Gospel (Romans 1:16).


• I continue to hear stories and just "sense" that God is doing a "deepening" work in many of our lives.  He is drawing our "roots" deep into Him and building our lives on Himself like Paul spoke of here.


• I'm already pumped about next week's message!!  Talking about a very important subject that affects us all.


• I don't think my voice can handle another message just yet :)


• We're starting to have some great discussions about our 3rd Rock Bridge campus.  This week at staff meeting we're spending some time discussing our overall multi-site approach.


• Seeing several young adults (18-20s) ON FIRE for Jesus ... their passion & hunger for Jesus is inspiring.


• Our administrative staff is involved with a big changeover of the software we use to keep up with our members, small groups, financial giving, budgeting, etc.  We're going to a system called ACS.  You'll be able to create an online account from our web site to see opportunities to serve, small groups, and track your giving.  You'll also be able to give online through a bank draft feature.  Details to come but this will seriously enhance people's ability to interact and stay informed via our web site.


• Baptism celebration is coming up next month!!


• New series starts April 26th: In the Beginning.


• Pray hard and keep the faith!
