No, really—it’s COLD up here! Remember now…I am from South Carolina—where cold is anything below 60 degrees…AND…when it snows we try to drive and usually buy all bread and milk at the grocery store.
Anyway, Chicago has been awesome so far. The three conference speakers today were Bill Hybles, Craig Groeschel, and Matthew Barnett. All three hit home runs!!!
God ROCKED my world and stretched me big time! I am still trying to get my mind around all these guys said…it was a ton of information!
I will say this—God is doing some awesome stuff in me personally AND continuing to throw gas on the fire that was already inside of me in regards to our church reaching our community and continuing to make a significant impact. I have been challenged so far…and I can’t wait to see what steps that God is going to lead us to take next.
I’ve said it before…our best days are still ahead of us. There are too many people in our community that do not know Jesus…but they desperately NEED to know Him…and we will NOT give up until they are reached.
I know when I make statements like that it causes some people to roll their eyes; however, for others of you the people that you think about are your friends and family members who do not know Jesus…and they matter to us…and we will not stop until we reach every one of them!!! That is a promise from me!
I can’t wait for this Sunday…it’s going to be awesome—we are going to push the edge with some things. I can honestly say that you will see something in church this Sunday that you have NEVER seen in church before…EVER! :-)
