What a Sunday! Had a great sunday school class with the 10th grade girls, just love them more and more. They are a great group of girls with so much potential.
We had the Lord's Supper in the morning worship service. That service just never loses meaning. Eddie does such a great job letting the elements speak for themselves. I also loved the story he shared of Tim Tebow and how his mother was counseled to abort him twice during her pregnancy. Just think what we would have lost if she had done that, not just a great quarterback who entertains many but a strong man of God who uses that athletic platform for the glory of Christ. Thanks Mrs. Tebow for following the counsel of the Lord.
What can be said about Elevate, our new worship for high school students?! WOW! The band did a great job leading in worship and the sermon was, in a word, powerful. Jacob held nothing back as he spoke to our students about leadership and living out in the world what they live within the church walls. There really is no room to be fake. That is a disastrous witness on all levels. All of us, adults as well as students, need to drop the mask and be real. It's not difficult at all to spot fakes. They tend to flounder around between living for God and living totally different when they don't think anyone is looking or "it won't get back". Problem is someone's always looking and it always gets back. Christ never takes his eyes off of us. Thanks Jacob for bringing it in such a challenging way.
Looking so forward to this week, so much going on. Spending lots of time on my face this week as several huge things are going on. Just seems like it's going to be one of those weeks that needs lots of prayer coverage. Thanks to those of you who have been so encouraging to me to continue on. I love you all and it is a joy to minister where God has placed us for such a time as this.
