Feb. 1, Thoughts on Sunday

Sixth straight Sunday in which the weather was awful.  Tell you one thing for sure, we're definitely finding out who wants to be at God's House on Sundays.  Due to the storm of 2010 we only had our 11:00 service.  Wasn't sure how many would show up but knew that those who did had a desire to worship Christ.  And they came by the hundreds.

Some of my thoughts:
* A special thank you to George and Andy who spent well over an hour getting the ice off the sidewalk.  That portion of sidewalk never gets any sunlight.  So glad they were here early to keep everyone from slipping and falling.
* Due to us only having one service, many people served in the Kid Zone without worshiping.  Thanks to everyone who works every week to provide our kids a safe and fun place to learn about Jesus.
* Worship was incredible.  Band has really took our worship to another level.  Great job guys.
* I'm convinced our people appreciate the band from the loud applause given yesterday.
* Great energy during worship and the fun songs.
* Personally, I thought it was incredible to see so many people piling into the auditorium eager to worship.
* Message seemed to go over really well.  Everyone was locked on and paying attention.
* To all the men who came forward admitting you needed to communicate with your wife better, good for you.
* Something special about seeing the altar full of nothing but men. 
* The message dealt with men communicating with wives.  The five helpful tips were:
     1. Listen
     2. Don't scream
     3. Care
     4. Feed back
     5. Time
* All of them were one word so men could handle them.
* Yes, I said the word orgasm.  And I meant what I said, "An orgasm does not constitute as communication."  "It does constitute as breeding."  Entirely too many relationship are built on sex and not from knowing each other spiritually and emotionally.  And this can only come from communication.
* Actually had some visitors and they told me they loved it.  I never get tired of hearing that.
* All in all another great day at 5 Point.  Word is that another storm front is on the way, guess we'll have those who really want to be here again this week and I can't wait to see them.
* We'll be discussing debt.  The Bible actually has a lot to say about debt and how to get out of debt.  Gonna be fun.

Some other thoughts:
* Really excited about what God is doing here.  We have incredible momentum.  Let's keep it going.
* Remember, one of our goals this year is to invite everyone in the county at least once.
* Thank you to everyone who served yesterday.  You guys are the best.
* Have this Sunday almost done.  Debt is a touchy topic but one that must be approached.
* And the following week is sex.  Can't wait to have some fun that day.
* Went to the Clemson/Maryland game last night.  Jacob and I sat at mid court 4 rows up.  It was incredible.  Watching Gary Williams (head coach of Maryland) would have been worth it.  He is so animated. 
* Pray with me that we continue to see life change at 5 Point.
* Thinking about going to a conference in a couple weeks.  Not sure yet.
* Gotta get back to working on this Sunday morning. 
* Do something radical for Jesus this week.
