Weekly Rundown (5.30.2010)

• Playing catch-up on the "Rundown" this week!!


• Baptism was amazing last weekend.  The stories and testimonies of life change and redemption were totally a "God thing" and very very powerful!
  
  
  
  • After hearing the stories and seeing the faces of the baptized (in love with Jesus!), I am more passionate than ever about the need to lift up Christ, be a healthy church, and pray like crazy for His purposes to be fulfilled!!
  
  
  
  


• Loved preaching ONE GREAT NATION-Part 1 on the need for godly courage!!
  
  
  
  • The full video of President Reagan's 1984 D-Day anniversary speech can be viewed here.
  
  
  
  


• Next week we start a 3-week series called "Fanatic" -- we'll be talking about worship.  Preparing for this series has really challenged me, inspired me, and given me a greater understanding of God.  I pray it does the same for our church.


• All-staff meeting this week! Looking forward to vision-casting, celebrating, laughing, and praying with our full team.


• Great job to our worship teams for learning American Soldier for this weekend's services ... awesome!!


• We're having some very healthy conversations right now about just being a healthy, unified, and well-led church!! I've noticed that these conversations have to take place regularly as the church grows and matures.


• Eyasu and Abreham went to the lake for the first time on Saturday!!  Eyasu loves the water and he even got to "tube" and ride the Sea Doo.


• Have a great Memorial Day and don't forget the price of our freedom is not free!!
