Howdy NewSpring Church, TEN things I would LOVE to share with you today…
#1 - Sunday was AMAZING! Seriously, CELEBRATING what God has done is a BIG DEAL…and He gave us SO MUCH to celebrate in 2011 as we saw over 3,000 people receive Christ. AND…every single number has a name attached to it, every name has a story and every story matters to God! Jesus IS changing lives and He’s doing it through HIS church…and if this is what He has done so far then what’s next? Jesus said in Luke 12:48 that we are responsible for so much more because He’s given us so much. THE BEST IS YET TO COME!
#2 - This coming Sunday we begin a brand new series entitled, “All In!” I wrote about it yesterday…if you haven’t read about it OR seen the video trailer for the series I invite you to do that here.
#3 - Last year we began one new campus in Charleston (and they averaged over 500 for the year)...this year we begin three brand new campuses in Myrtle Beach, Greenwood and Spartanburg!!! Please pray for the launching of these campuses as we are on our way to reaching over 100,000 people in this state every single week for Christ.
#4 - THANK YOU SO MUCH for going all out to invite someone to one of our Christmas services. We saw nearly 27,000 people attend one of our 26 services across five different campuses and saw over 300 people receive Christ! PARTY!!!
#5 - Our band is releasing their brand new worship CD this month, details are going to be campus specific and so pay attention this coming week as you get to hear more information about a night of worship/CD release that is going to be INCREDIBLE!
#6 - Wanted to get this out there again…but Gauntlet is going to sell out this year, most likely by the end of March. Trust me, you do not want your teenager to miss it!!! Go here for more information and to sign up.
#7 - In case you missed it on Sunday, here were the top ten sermons (via the most viewed sermons from our website) last year.
#8 - And, in case you missed it last week here were the top 25 blog posts on this site from last year.
#9 - AND…there is STILL ROOM if you want to go to Israel with us in April. (And you do not have to be a member or even an attender of NewSpring Church to go on this trip…it is open to ANYONE!) Trust me when I tell you that this trip will blow your mind. I can honestly say that it took my walk with Jesus to a new level as I was able to see the places I’ve read about all of my life. Here is the info!
#10 - Finally, I LOVE MY CHURCH! My prayer is that this is not only the greatest year of growth our church has ever exprienced…I also want it to be the greatest year of growth that you have ever experienced!!! I am praying Ephesians 3:20 over our church and our lives as I believe that EVERY PERSON on EVERY CAMPUS is on the verge of greater things!!! (Just in case you’ve never seen it…here are the TEN THINGS I want for every person in our church.)
THE BEST IS YET TO COME, BOTH FOR YOUR LIFE & THE LIFE OF OUR CHURCH!
