We had a great day at Lifepoint today!  Here are my thoughts…enjoy.

• Today was our fall-kickoff services.
• We launched a new series called “At The Movies.”  We started it off with the Dark Knight.  I felt like the message connected really well. (first service atleast)
• The power went off several times second service which was a major fiasco.  I had to preach with no mic for about 5 minutes…as it turns out, I have a very loud mouth.
• Trying to show a video clip with no power is a bit of a bummer…however, I think people just rolled with the punches.
• The focus of my talk was about enduring through the difficult times.  I used the one line by Harvey Dent when he says, “the night is darkest just before the dawn.”
• Attendance was strong today=603
• We were down quite a bit of college students today.  I was told they went home for the hurricane.  Hope to see them back next week.
• We launched our first time guest tent today.  It was a big success!  We had 34 guest turn in first time guest cards and get a free Lifepoint T-shirt.
• Now we have to figure out how to get people to go from raising their hand indicating they began a relationship with Jesus to checking off the connection card.  We had about 8 hands raised second service and only a few cards turned in.  We’re working on it…we’ve got a few ideas.
• Our setup and teardown teams are cranking.  I think there should be a set up and tear down olympics.  I would put our team up against any other portable church out there.  We’ll kick your tails!
• YouthQuest from Liberty University did a great job leading worship today.  It was nice to give our guys the week off.  Liberty was my stomping grounds from 94-98.  WoW I’m getting old!
• Our children’s ministry had record numbers in the 9:30am service today!  Tiffany and her team are doing an incredible job!
• Popcorn in the lobby was a beautiful thing!
• Popcorn and coffee = the smell of heaven!
• Yes I said, “Paul got stoned.”  But not in the way you think I said it.
• I don’t think the AC was working today in the gym.
• I can’t wait until the 28th when we get to move to Ashley!
• Baptism on the 21st is going to be amazing.
• This evening starts the beginning of a 21 day countdown to our Ashley move.
• All the staff are participating in a Daniel fast in preparation for what God wants to do through Lifepoint!
