Inside Today’s Experience

March 9, 2008 by Gilbert Leave a Comment

  • Between still being sick, the death of my grandmother on Friday, our big leadership retreat over the weekend and the normal adrenaline of preaching…I feel like someone has taken a baseball bat to my body.
  • Despite all that, we had another awesome Experience…4 more people born into the Kingdom!
  • I wasn’t even planning on doing a call for commitment at the end but felt the Spirit nudging that way…just goes to show what I know.
  • This was one of my favorite worship sets we’ve ever done…the band was hitting it on all cylinders…the new song “Look to You” was amazing!
  • We weren’t sure what the attendance would be today since the Blended Service in the sanctuary had a special Easter program going on, but we ended up with our 2nd highest attendance ever!
  • Looks like a lot of you took the challenge from last week and invited in your friends.
  • Keep up the inviting…Easter is only 2 weeks away.
  • Only heard of a couple of people who were confused with us not changing the time…seemed to be a success.
  • Even for those that were confused, it still meant they were there, just an hour early.
  • Without going into major details, the retreat this weekend looking at the future direction of the church was great….we’ve got some huge things planned for the entire church and United in the coming months and years that are going to be incredible.   Keep praying as God gives us direction now on the timing of each of those things.
  • Let me just say this…to accomplish what we feel God is calling us to, it is going to take a lot more people discovering and then using their spiritual gifts.
  • If your not currently serving in some way, please let us know so you can play a part in the exciting things God has in store for us.
  • Tonight is CAYA and I’m hopeful of afterwards redeeming myself in the competition on the Wii.
