What matters...

• Craig makes a strong point on his post regarding the importance of the Gospel over and above the methods when it comes to being the church.  He's so right.  The methods we use are important as we try to connect with upcoming generations but it's the Truth that will effect life change.
• We had an awesome time Sunday.  We set a record for TheBOD.tv.  Although we aren't about the numbers we broke 200... 201 to be exact for the first time. 
• We were live for the first time... live simulcast.  Very cool.  We also joined with Steven Cole and LifeChurch.tv for the worship element this week.  It rocked.  We'll do that again from time to time.
• The backpack ministry is about to take off.  Lots of interest.  Big things will happen in the lives of those involved.  Both the givers and receivers.
• The 5th and 6th grades will be meeting every other week in the home of one of our great families.  It's very exciting to see this group taking shape.  It'll be great fun.
• The Bod Squad is rocking.  They are seeing lives changed and commitments to Christ almost weekly.  NICE!
• First home group met this week.  It was a great time.  Fantastic discussion on the Spiritual Warfare sermon. 
• God showed up last night for band practice.  The practice was OK but the prayer at the end was a holy time.  It's those moments I live for.  The good life. 
• I'm meeting with a couple of young men now who I think God has his hand on.  We are diving deeper into discipleship and I pray that these two guys will be world changers for God's glory.
• I'm not posting enough.  Tooooo busy.  I'll work at it a little harder.  Pray for us.  We are on the verge of something remarkable.
