- From the outside looking in, today looked pretty good, but behind the scenes, it was a rough day.
- Pretty fitting though considering that I was preaching about how to go through tough times and grow from it. :)
- Despite a lot of technical difficulties, it was still a fun day.
- I’m sort of sad that we’re done with the medley’s…they were all a lot of fun!
- Don’t know how many people picked up on the Milli Vanilli lip synching gag…oh well at least we amused ourselves.
- Brian and Adam’s dancing was about as good as mine….haha!
- I thought then that the whole team really pulled it together for Loser.
- Brian did a great job of remembering an incredibly confusing song, Adam played the slide on the guitar to perfection and Andy gave Brian some neat effects for the rapping portions.
- At the 9:45 I was really flustered by everything that had happened in the morning and then my mic was causing some weird feedback which never happens.
- I was disappointed, but I’ve had quite a few people tell me that the message really spoke to them.
- At 11:15 then I was able to bring it with a bit more passion.
- I was sharing with a few people that if we ever do a series like this again, I’m scheduling it for the winter…
- All these wigs and costumes I’ve been wearing are very hot…nothing like wearing flannel today when it’s hot and humid out.
- Had some guests tell me that a greeter at the door asked them if they wanted the “smokey and wild” service or the normal one.
- Interestingly enough with a description like that, they still chose to come to United.
- I forgot to mention at the 11:15 that if you’re interested in helping with set-up or tear-down, we could really use your help. Either put it on a Connection Card or e-mail Tony at thediehls@comcast.net
- I’m excited about this up-coming week for two reasons…
- First, Lisa and I will be on vacation in Florida!
- Second, Josh Schlotterbeck is going to finish out the Rewind series by looking at the song Criminal.
- Josh is an awesome young man of God and I promise you’ll not want to miss out on what God wants to speak to you through him.
- This is going to be big-time salvation message, so if you have friends, neighbors, co-workers or relatives that don’t yet have a relationship with Christ, do whatever it takes to make sure they show up next week.
- The following week then I’ll be back with the start to a new series called, Unveil: Revealing God’s Will For My Life.
- That’s a question everyone wants to know so I’m excited to share with you how to discover God’s will.
- Again there are plenty of invite cards in the back, so invite, invite, invite!
- Since I’ll be on vacation, I probably won’t post much, but check back periodically for vacation up-dates.
