A Letter From Pastor P To NewSpring Church

Sep 20, 2011

Howdy NewSpring Church, FIVE things I want to share with you today…

#1 - We had over 100 people surrender their lives to Christ this past Sunday!!!  CELEBRATE THAT!  We have to REFUSE to allow the world to outdo us when it comes to celebration!  We must NEVER allow people crossing over from death to life to ever become “normal!”

#2 - This past Sunday was one of THE most exciting Sunday’s we’ve EVER had at NewSpring Church…we learned that CELEBRATION of all God has done should lead to ANTICIPATION of all He wants to do (Luke 12:48!)  AND…as we talked about, 2000 years ago Jesus ascended into heaven and gave us the ball…not so we could merely study the playbook or stay in the huddle…but rather so we can RUN UP THE SCORE.  I’m so excited that our church embraces the fact that…

  • Found People Find People - Luke 19:10, II Corinthians 5:11-21
  • Saved People Serve People - Matthew 20:28, Mark 10:35-45
  • Growing People Change - Psalm 139:23-24, Romans 12:1-2
  • I Can’t Do Life Alone - Hebrews 10:23-25
  • I Can’t Outgive God - II Corinthians 9:6-15

#3 - This Sunday we will be concluding the eight week series in the book of Revelation…and like I said in the message I can promise you that it is going to be one of the most UNFORGETTABLE Sunday’s we’ve EVER experienced in the HISTORY of NewSpring Church.  I’m asking you all to pray with me that God’s presence will be so obvious among us…and that HE will absolutely challenge and change people.  AND…if you know someone who does not know Christ then GET THEM HERE…do whatever it takes.  Let me say it one more time…it’s going to be the most powerful conclusion to a series we’ve EVER had.

#4 - Several of you have been asking…so I wanted to go ahead and announce it today that Clayton King, our teaching pastor, will be with us on October 2 & 9.  I cannot WAIT for Clayton to be with us…the Lord always uses him in awesome/incredible ways to challenge, encourage, and inspire NewSpring Church.

#5 - One more time, PLEASE pray for me and a crew that will be traveling with me as we leave on Monday for a trip to Estonia and the UK where we will have the privilege of pouring into church leaders and sharing the Gospel.  Pray that the Lord will allow me to be faithful to teach HIS Word, that I will have energy and passion and that we will see an unbelievable and undeniable harvest!!!

That’s it for today…I love you guys…I love my church…and I can’t WAIT until Sunday!!!
