Sunday Recap

Part 2 of God at the Movies today.  We used “I am Legend” to set up a chat about being light in the dark world.  Here’s some thoughts from today.

  • There were demons in the sound system this morning, which set things about an hour behind schedule.  This led ito the first service, which just didn’t feel right.
  • The second and third service picked up, and when it was all said and done, there were 913 people at church today.
  • 913 people is an all, non-Easter time record.
  • For some perspective, there were 303 people in the third service, which has 265 seats.  There were people sitting on steps and standing in aisles.
  • Josh Roberts, who si starting a church church in Rome, Georgia, was in our service today.  Check out his thoughts right here.
  • We are working in the House of Rock on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday nights from 6-9pm.  Come and help us if you can.  We’ll also be in there on Saturday from 9-3.  We especially need people to help with painting, cleaning, building, electrical and plumbing.
  • I talked about my buddy Vince, who is leaving his church in Virginia Beach to start a church on the strip in Las Vegas.  That’s what I’m talking about when I say that the light doesn’t need to curse the darkness, but invade it.
  • We continue God at the Movies next week by talking about Iron Man.  Tony Stark will lead us in a discussion of one of my favorite characters from the New Testament.  We cap off the series with WallE.
  • Come join us Monday, Tuesday or Thursday night and I’ll see you there!
