The End.

now's your chance

Final blog post is near. If you could see the interns do anything, in a picture, or a video, what would it look like?

If You Could

If You could pick 2 worship songs to sing in church, what would they be?

Summer Floods

We wrapped up our summer floods last night with a packed house and a great message about being a 'revolutionary'.  Keep checking back here and on the website (cbsmonline.org) to find out what is going down for the next few wednesday nights before school starts.  It could be anything from some Ultimate to some Painting.

We have had some great gatherings this summer, and now we as a band, and as interns are stepping out of the way.  It is Your ministry.  It is time for you to step up and take the lead.  Run with it.

Reach. Your thoughts?

I read other blogs. One of the blogs brought up this statement made by Craig Groeschel, Senior Pastor of Lifechurch.tv:

“To reach people no one else is reaching we must do things no one else is doing.”

My thoughts:

1. Isn't it sad that there are people who aren't being reached!

-Sitting at our college bible study this summer, I was asked the question, "When was the last time you watched a total non-believer in Christ enter into a growing relationship with Him?" The overwhelming response was 'little to never'. So, a question to the church: What in the world are we doing?!?!?

2. ...'no one else is reaching'...

-The only thing I have to say is that I don't want to be the 'no one' in that phrase.

3. We must do things no one else is doing.

- Yes, that means break away from tradition. Yes, that means doing things that we might not be used to. Yes, that means embracing change.

4. Who exactly are those people no one else is reaching?


Ok. Your thoughts:

Let The Flow Go.

:)

This coming Sunday morning (tomorrow), we have been given the awesome opportunity to lead for the second service (Connect service), due to people being gone and vacations, etc. We are really excited about it, but as we prayed this morning, we really want their to be a freedom to worship.

So, leave everything you are carrying with you outside tomorrow, and come inside the church prepared to meet Jesus.

And for those of you who were there at Flood Wednesday night, think about what we talked about. Think about the deadness, and the lack of excitement that has surrounded us.

Fountain Place

Thanks for the help today. Come join the fun the rest of the week. We continue the work tomorrow 9-2 (and we will go to lunch together). See you there.

Note: You must wear closed-toe shoes and pants of some kind. We have eye protection and hard hats if we feel you need them.
