March 23, Thoughts on Sunday

Another great day at 5 Point.  Some of my thoughts
* Sorry for not getting this out earlier.  Been really busy today.
* Spoke on money yesterday with two very simple points:
    a. You can't lie to God about money
    b. You can't buy God 
* Was not a beg a thon at all.  I will never do that.  Giving is all about loving Jesus.  If you have to beg people they are giving for the
   wrong reasons anyway.  
* Beautiful morning yesterday.  Love the spring weather.
* Saw so many new faces serving and visitors.
* Our people are obviously doing a great job inviting.  Keep up the good work.
* Parking lot was 100% full.  Thank goodness we have the public lot across the street.
* In saying that, if you can walk, please park across the street.  We need spots for visitors.
* For some reason the computer wasn't sending a signal to the video projector.  Tim & Corey did an awesome job of getting
   everything working.  I was prepared to take the Bible and just teach.  No tech at all.  Man am I glad they got it fixed.
 * First service was a little down but it was made up in the second.
* Only missed setting another all time attendance record by a few.
* We did set an all time giving record.  A true sign that people are falling in love with Jesus.
* I was standing behind the screen watching people worship during the second service and it was incredible.
* Felt as if I was so so during first service but for some reason felt as if I brought it the second.  Crowd was really into it.
* The kid Zone had 195.  They will be running over 200 every Sunday very soon.
* Walked through the kids area during worship first service.  Amazed at how good a job everyone does with so many children.
* Tim sand God & Money after the message.  It was incredible.  The video along with the words brought the message home.
* I am simply amazed at what God is doing here.  I can remember our beginning days and just how far we've come.
* Dwain had a big group of teens here last night.  I've had a couple of adults tell me just how good the service was.
   A lot of visitors and a bunch who came back from last week.
* Ann started another class on how to get out of debt.
* Burl started another new believers class.
* I was literally exhausted form the weekend:
    a. spoke at marriage retreat Friday night and Saturday morning.
    b. Spoke at Volunteer Banquet 
    c. Spoke twice on Sunday morning.
* I went home and slept for hour an half.  Then washed all the vehicles. Hudson (Grandson) helped me wash car and rode in my lap
  while I mowed grass.  It was an awesome evening. 

Couple other thoughts:
* The egg drop is really coming together.  There is an awesome buzz in the community.  We are going to have A LOT of people.
* We need the following for the drop:
    a. ice
    b. canned coke products and water
    c. sweet tea 
    d. golf carts
    e. canopies
    f. you - still not to late to sign up
* Can not wait for this Sunday.  I'll be talking about sex.  We have two videos that are literally going to jack you up.
* Easter weekend services are coming together.
* Remember, the Saturday night service is just for Easter weekend.  Not starting a regular Saturday service.
* We'll start a third and fourth Sunday service first.
* Had an awesome staff meeting this morning.  I love our staff dearly.  They are more than a staff.  They are family.
