- Preaching about the Cross can never get old because understanding & applying the Cross is as essential as breathing!!
- Great to celebrate baptism today.
- Spent some time planning our missions giving for 2010. I am pumped about all the ways we as a church will be able to support God’s causes –
- Lots of various efforts in NW Georgia:
- Crisis pregnancy; food & clothing assistance; benevolences; homelessness
- A medical missionary to Kenya.
- Missionary in the Middle East.
- Efforts to relieve world hunger.
- Church plants in 3 different states (Georgia, Tennesse, and Florida).
- God blew me away on Friday with an amazing conversation about His radical, unfailing love and then a big, breakthrough about getting our 3rd site up and rolling in Chatsworth … stuff I’ve been praying over for months, starting to materialize as God’s faithfulness and perfect timing bears fruit for His glory!!
- Great meeting with new Calhoun Elders … great to be able to expand the local leadership efforts at that Campus.
- Beginning some cool discussions about how to better mobilize our church to serve.
- Prayer requests:
- Direction and guidance about foreign missions. The opportunities are endless and all very good … seeking THE opportunity God prepared long ago for us to walk in — Ephesians 2:10.
- 2010 opportunities in NW Georgia: 3rd site in Chatsworth, 3rd service (Thursday night), and “building favor” in Calhoun.
- Sermon and worship planning for 2010.
- HAVE A GREAT WEEK
