Sunday Night Reflections March 15, 2009

Had an amazing weekend…here are a few of the highlights…

• Practicing what I preached a few weeks ago…took ‘Cretia out of town for the weekend…Charisse stayed with some awesome friends!  :-)
• Took me about a day and a half to get over the Unleash hangover!
• CAN’T WAIT until Unleash next year!!!
• We headed out to Charlotte, NC and had a blast all weekend!
• Of course, we went to Elevation Church this morning.
• I can honestly say that Pastor Steven Furtick allowed the Lord to use Him to bring an INCREDIBLE message…I could not stop taking notes.
• (He’s a godly man…he and his wife Holly bought Lucretia and I dinner on Friday night at Ruths Chris!!!  THANKS man!)
• His take on “going deep” was incredible!  You should listen to the podcast.
• “Most of us know a lot more of God’s truth than we put into practice.”  PSF
• “We are loaded with revelation and short on application.”  PSF
• “The Bible doesn’t change your life…the application of the Bible changes your life.”  PSF
• ‘Cretia and I were able to catch up on episodes of “Heroes” and “Lost” over the past few days…by far our two favorite shows.
• We also went shopping at the South Park Mall…it is slightly larger than our mall here in Anderson and has a few more stores in it!  :-)
• We had dinner tonight at the Cheesecake Factory…YES!
• We also got to go and see “Slumdog Millionaire” while on this trip…awesome movie!
• ‘Cretia and I missed our peeps at NewSpring Church today…we heard Joe Sangl was PUMPED UP and brought the heat!  (Big Surprise.)
• In my opinion…Joe is the best there is when it comes to teaching on personal finances and getting out of debt.
• Oh yeah…if you are in debt…you can get out…stop blaming everyone and everything and DO SOMETHING.  LIKE…GET TO THIS CLASS!!!  (More on this in a later post.)
• LOTS to do this next week…would appreciate the prayers!  Can’t believe HE allows me to be a part of what He’s doing…definitely evidence that He uses the foolish things of this world to confound the wise!
