This picture was taken downtown Wilmington by our Children’s Director, Tiffany Poston using my canon 40d. I had some fun with it photoshop and turned it into the wallpaper on my macbook. Feel free to download it and slap it on your machine.
Michelle and I are headed out to spend a few days in Music City hanging out with some friends and family. I’m looking forward to spending time with Pete Wilson and Crosspoint Church. However, truth be told I’m really looking forward to hanging out with the infamous…Blake.
It’s hard to believe that almost 1900 churches and over 1 million people are participating in this series.
Pastor Steven Furtick spoke yesterday and did a tremendous job. God is great. God is good.
I am convinced that the church has more opportunities than ever to share the Gospel. Technology is a tool…its our job to use it.
We gave away a few best buy gift cards for Father’s Day.
It’s amazing how mothers day is a high attendance day and father’s day is a low attendance day.
I can’t wait to kick off THE MAN SERIES on July 19th.
I had a great father’s day. My kids made me cards, bought me candy, took me to On The Boarder, went to the beach, and ate chicken wings. It was good.
Taking a few weeks off of speaking is easier said than done. This has been a much needed break but it has also exposed the control freak/God complex inside of me.
I’m looking forward to being apart of planting another 600+ churches through the One Prayer initiative. Visit oneprayer.com to learn more.
I’m praying through some big opportunities that we have as a church. My list of dreams is quite long.
What do you do when your resources won’t resource your dreams? You dream anyway. God is not limited by your checking account.
Next week we close out the One Prayer series with my friend and mentor Perry Noble. God has used Perry and Newspring to shape Lifepoint in a powerful way. Sunday is gonna be good!
Sign up today for our Beach Baptism Party on July 12th, 5:30pm at Fort Fisher Recreation area. Email info@lifepointnow.com to sign up.
Yes it is tuesday and I’m just now getting around to writing the weekend recap. We continued our ONE PRAYER series Sunday with a message by Craig Groeschel from Lifechurch.tv. Here are my thoughts on the day.
Video works. We have used video on several occasions but I am always amazed at how people connect. It is proof that we are the multimedia generation.
It is getting time for us to make some equipment upgrades on our projectors. They have served us well to this point but will need to be upgraded. I’d love some thoughts from anyone out there that has some projector insight. What are you using?
I got to slip into our Kidzone area for a bit this past week. Those kids have a blast. I could barely keep up with them during the worship time.
It was good to have Kevin back from Ethiopia.
We had Patrick, one of our interns, leading worship and Drew, our worship leader, on the drums. They did a great job.
We are working on developing a second band to play for our midtown campus which launches this fall.
Think you’ve got what it takes to play in the band? Band auditions are taking place on July 1st. Email drew@lifepointnow.com to sign up.
We had several people pray to begin a relationship with Jesus this past week. Did I mention it was a video. God can speak to people through video…I LOVE IT!
I love meeting new families after the service. I spoke with a lady to asked me to pray that her family would start coming to church.
I spoke to another lady who wanted me to meet the rest of her family who she got to come with her.
Why don’t I ever meet men who ask me to pray that their wife and kids will come with them?
Mark your Calendars: July 12th we are having a Beach Baptism and Cookout…More details to come.
If you have made a decision to follow Jesus and haven’t been baptized you need to. Sign up to be baptized on July 12th by emailing info@lifepointnow.com.
I also want to remind our entire Dream Team to make sure you have blocked off Saturday Morning, July 18th for our Dream Team Experience with special guest Larry Brey.
Here is the video that rolled while our band completely rocked awesome God during the closing of week 1 of our ONE PRAYER series. There is no sound on this clip since it rolled over top of our band playing. You have to imagine our lead guitarist shredding a mean solo over this video. This was put together by our motion graphics intern Preston (who does not blog…otherwise I would link to him). Enjoy
