Sunday Night Reflections March 23, 2008
I am trying my best to wrap my mind around the events of this weekend. Here are some final thoughts before I hit the hay…
- Seeing over 120 people receive Christ this weekend absolutely PUMPED me up! Yeah God!
- Seeing over 12,000 people at church pumped me up as well…who would have thought that something like this could ever happen in Anderson…OTHER THAN GOD! :-)
- The music today BLEW my mind…”I Stand Amazed” rocked my world every time–and the choir singing on “Savior King” is one of the top five moments in NewSpring history!
- Just being honest…I experienced spiritual warfare this weekend like never before, it was intense–but, as always–JESUS WON! Like the great theologian Lee McDerment said, “The grave is too weak for Jesus, and one day, because of Him, the grave will be to weak for me!”
- I was holding Charisse tonight at supper–she was so beautiful in her little Easter dress and we were having such an awesome time…until…she TOTALLY pooted on me!!! BUT…she’s my daughter and I love her–poots and all! :-)
- The announcement was made today that we are beginning our third NewSpring campus in Florence later on this year, Tony has more about it here! We are taking the Gospel to the world THROUGH the local church–and, you guessed it, that PUMPS ME UP!
- It is our goal one day to have a NewSpring Church in every major city in the state of South Carolina…and then who knows…
- I saw more pastels in our church today than I ever care to see again! :-)
- I received a text today from a friend that brought his father to our worship service and then used that to have a conversation with his dad about Jesus–AMAZING!
- From time to time on this site I ask pastors/church leaders to shoot me questions that they may want to ask…and I ALWAYS put out this disclaimer–I am NOT an expert…but if you have a question as to how we do ministry here at NewSpring that you would love for me to answer on this website then please shoot me an e-mail and I will try my best!
- Lucretia and Charisse are listening to “Rockin’ Robin” – Charisse LOVES oldies! :-)
That’s honestly about all that I’ve got–I’m tired!
