On The Day After

It's Monday, the day after Sunday (obviously). But this Monday feels different. It's the day after an incredible Sunday. It's the day after an Acts 2:43 kind of thing - Everyone was filled with awe... Acts 2:43 I'm in awe, as is everyone I've talked to today. In fact, the thing I've heard several times since yesterday is,"I've never seen anything like that before." Me either!

So what's left to be said after a day like yesterday? Several things...

• First, thank you to everyone who invited someone to New Horizon for 10-10-10. I believe what we saw yesterday was a move of God, but I believe God moved because we responded to his word. When we put our faith on the line, he shows himself faithful and because so many were willing to do something uncomfortable and invite someone to church, God moved in a BIG WAY!

• Thank you to everyone who prayed and fasted last week. We prayed specifically that God would do what only HE can do, and he did!

• Thank you to everyone who volunteered yesterday. I'm always proud of our volunteers at New Horizon, but yesterday my pride levels were off the charts. You guys pulled together as a team, used your gifts and talents and created environments where people were free to hear about Jesus. As a result, hundreds of lives were changed for eternity!

• If you invited someone who didn't come yesterday, let me just say this - DON'T GIVE UP! I said this in the Weekend Rewind, but my ONE didn't come either. It happens. But if we'll keep praying and keep inviting I believe God will eventually orchestrate their lives in a way that they will be open to the invitation. So KEEP INVITING!

• And if you invited someone and they came, here's what to do next - INVITE THEM TO COME BACK NEXT SUNDAY!!

• Speaking of next Sunday, we're kicking off a new 3-week series called, My Crazy Family. Week #1 - Family Feud. It's going to be a great Sunday and you don't want to miss it. (I know I say that all the time, but I really believe it!)

• Let's keep praying, keep serving, keep creating environments for our ONE's, keep inviting and keep asking God to do even GREATER THINGS!

I LOVE YOU NEW HORIZON!

Thanks you so much for the free tickets to the Duke vs Miami game. We went to the game and we had a great time even though Duke lost :)
Thank you for the Dave Ramsey Special, we really appreciate it. We can´t make it today to your church but we will be glad to go some other Sunday and meet some people since we are new in town.
Thanks again,
