Sunday Night Mind Dump

Today was one of the most Incredible days @ LifeQuest Church. It just keeps getting better. Here's a run down of what happened.

  • Worship was loud and people were really engaged with it.
  • It really rained hard but that didn't stop people from showing up.
  • It felt great to be back on week two after a 6 week sabbatical. I feel rested and ready to lead LifeQuest Church into a new era.
  • I preached my heart out about Change.
  • The main thought of the message was this, When the pain of the same becomes greater than the pain of change then you will change! Read that and let it soak in.
  • We talked about how we could change personally and then how we as a church need to change.
  • I said that God want's us to get off our butt's and really reach our community and transform the communities we are in.
  • We had a special guest with us from the Division of Family Services (DFS) Misty was kind enough to come and share the need they have. The current need is 48 uniforms for school aged foster/at risk kids.
  • I challenged LifeQuester's to step up and meet that need.
  • We didn't raise money for 48 uniforms.
  • We raised enough money between both campuses for 81 uniforms. Misty was literally in tears. I am so excited that you gave 81 kids the opportunity to start school on time with a quality uniform.
  • We will be going to Sears this week to purchase them and deliver them to the families.
  • We as Christ Followers ARE THE CHANGE the World NEEDS!
  • Next Sunday is going to be well you will have to see for yourselves. All I can say is bring a friend and be in your seat before the worship experience starts.
LifeQuest the BEST is yet to come. You are the most GENEROUS CHURCH!
