How do I do Weekend Rewind when I wasn't even there? Here's how...
• No, I wasn't "on" this weekend and that was a good thing for a couple of reasons. Reason #1 - I was sick Sunday. No, Adam didn't sub for me because I was sick. He had been scheduled to speak on that weekend for a couple of months. It just so happened that my body chose not to cooperate with my mind on the same weekend.
• Reason #2 - It was also a good thing because it just proves once again that this thing isn't about me, or you, or any other person. It's about God showing up - and according to what I've heard, he did! My wife, who was not sick, told me that Adam and the rest of the team knocked it out of the park. AND...people got saved this weekend! Way to go TEAM!!
• This week I'm away from home and the office and all the distractions so I can spend some focused time praying and studying and planning our next two fall series.
• September 20th we start a new series on marriage and relationships called Relationship Rehab. I know this is something we talk about on a REGULAR basis and you may wonder why we focus on it so much, so here's why - I'm SOOO tired of seeing marriages and families fall apart because we're not willing to do whatever it takes to rehab our relationships. Many of the people who walk through our doors for the first time come because they're hurting, and most of them are hurting in their marriage and family. So, yes, we talk about it - a lot.
• And singles, don't worry. As usual, there'll be plenty of stuff rolled in for you too!
• Then in October we'll be kicking into one of the most important series we'll do this year. Unstoppable will be a 6-week series focusing on how we can move forward with God's plan for our lives as individuals and as a church.
• So, pray for me this week! Pray for God's leading as I cram and get ready for these two really important series.
