Another exciting weekend at Abundant Life Church . . . here's a recap and some highlights
- Just love seeing the excitement and joy on people's faces as they walk into the lobby and into the auditorium
- It never gets old meeting new folks . . . keep inviting . . . keep inviting . . . keep inviting . . . the Good News is way too amazing to keep to ourselves
- I get really jazzed meeting people who are returning for the second, third, and fourth time . . . it tells me Abundant Life Church is meeting a need and making a difference in their life
- The band hit it out of the park . . . the people were engaged . . . and it was especially fun for me to heckle Scott a bit
- Getting close to finishing up our series . . . Faith, Hope, and Luck . . . this weekend the message was . . . No Dice
- We have all had a front row seat to God's "No." Even though we think we know what is best and that our requests are perfectly reasonable . . . God sometimes still says no
- When God says no . . . His grace to endure is available to us
- We cannot live in God's grace and run from His "no" at the same time . . . when He says "no" we can either bow our knee or shake our fist . . . we can either walk away from God or run to God
- Had a person to email me after Saturday night's service with an amazing story of peace after finally accepting God's "No" and believing He has something better in store
Even in the face of a "no" we can still affirm God's presence . . . God's power . . . and God's purpose
