Here are a few thoughts before heading off to bed…
- First of all—please pray for my daughter—she’s sick. Nothing major—just a runny nose and extremely fussy. I can’t stand seeing her not well!
- By the way…she’s 10 months old today! WOW!
- Had a senior management team off site meeting on Thursday that, in all honesty, is going to REALLY change the way we view ministry…BIG TIME CHANGES headed our way. :-)
- Does anyone know of a good church in the Panama City Beach area…I will be vacationing there this summer and will actually be there on a Sunday and would LOVE to visit somewhere.
- Today at NewSpring was INTENSE…I spoke about money!
- The only people who get angry when you speak about money are…well…it’s like when I speak about adultery—the only people who would get angry about that are…well…
- The Bible has to say more about money than heaven, hell, faith and prayer combined—it HAS to be talked about in church.
- Matthew 6:21 and Matthew 6:24 are two verses that God used in a MAJOR way to get my attention with the money issue.
- I was a Christian for nearly 10 years before I totally surrendered my finances to God…but since doing so, well…I’ve never gone without (my heavenly Father KNOWS how to provide) AND I have discovered that I cannot out give God! (I dare you to try!)
- Today I challenged our church to NOT participate in rumors that tear down other churches and/or ministers. Seriously…there are WAY too many people in this world who do not know Jesus for us to concern ourselves with battling the Christian community!
- I hate snakes!
- We begin a new series this coming Sunday that I have been looking forward to for MONTHS!
- Mother’s Day is going to be INCREDIBLE!!! WOW!
- I love the church…I love the fact that she is the bride of Christ…that, in spite of her flaws she is beautiful and breathtaking…and is STILL God’s plan to reach and redeem the world!
- Seeing the children’s building and youth building go up absolutely FIRES me up…great things are in store.
- Greenville campus is right around the corner.
- I would LOVE to meet this guy!
- Florence campus is not far away!
Goodnight!
