Here are some thoughts running through my mind this evening…
- It was AWESOME to be back on stage today speaking at NewSpring…I LOVE THIS PLACE.
- I announced today that I am praying for at least ONE THOUSAND people to receive Christ during the month of August!!! NewSpring…lets pray a Psalm 2:8 prayer! GOD IS HUGE!!!
- Our attendance was up 75% compared to this time last year—HOLY COW—folks, this fall is going to be CRAZY! And just think—tons of people are still on vacation and the majority of our college students have not returned to campus yet!
- Speaking of that—PLEASE—seriously, for those who normally attend the 9:15 or 11:15 service…we are seeking at least 500 of you to commit to come on Sunday evenings at either 4:15 or 6:00…that way we can continue to make room in our AM services for those who are disconnected with God.
- We are doing something next Sunday with which I am VERY uncomfortable with…BUT…I really believe it will get the message across in a way that will never be forgotten.
- Yes, I did use the phrase “crap missile” in the message today!
- I spent some time in Greenville on Friday walking around and praying at our possible satellite location…I really feel that God is about to do something great there!
- After spending time there I went to Starbucks—DANG IT—we need one in Anderson! I heard that Greenwood is getting one…this is getting ridiculous!
- My daughter came to church today for the first time—I brought her out on stage during the first service. She’s awesome!!!
- Speaking of my daughter—before coming back to church this afternoon I took her and put her in her crib, right before I put her down she smiled at me and looked at me with her big beautiful eyes…I am in SO MUCH TROUBLE!
- Tonight after church I swung by Sonic and got some of their onion rings—WOW—those things are AWESOME!
- My friend Clayton is breaking into blog world and hit a home run with this post, you’ve got to read this!
Seriously—that’s all I’ve got this evening…I am SO tired…coming back from preaching after being gone for three weeks was great—but it officially kicked my butt!
