Bad oil change

Oh man, I am having issues. Had my oil changed at my mechanics garage today. He had a new guy in, and after I got down the road, the engine started grinding and no oil pressure.

I pulled over and saw this....

Talk about bummed. I called the mechanic and had it towed back to his shop. He is taking care of it tomorrow. Pray there isnt any damage.

Weekend Update

1. The band was amazing yesterday. I am so moved every time we sing Overcome and Revelation song. What a powerful time of worship.

2. 5 people recommitted their life to Christ yesterday. Amazing. I love to see people being moved on by the Holy Spirit.,

3. Thank you for inviting your friends. It is making a difference in peoples lives. You never know that one invitation could be the one that the Holy Spirit uses to help them cross the line of faith.

4. Signed off today to send our 26,500 mailers to go along with our www.mymarriageisdead.com series. Pray with us for 100 marriages to be changed.

5. Over 3000 hits to the website since we have had billboards up.

6. I am getting emails nearly everyday from spouses wanting to heal their marriage.

7. Invite everyone you can to this new life changing series. Lets fill that theater and change our city.

100 in 6 weeks

Pray with us everyday during this month and next for 100 marriages to be changed.

I know its a ridiculous prayer, but I believe God honors ridiculous faith.

It is God plan that all come to repentance. I also believe its His plan for people to have an abundant life.

Merge those things, and we have a stellar series that is designed to transform marriages as hearts are changed as Jesus touches them.

Invite everyone you know.

Lets fill our theater for Gods glory.

My BIble Journey

Man I have reading through Romans again this week. I love this book.

Romans 3

21But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. 22This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, 23for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. 25God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood. He did this to demonstrate his justice, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished— 26he did it to demonstrate his justice at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.

Bela and Capt Kangaroo

Anyone notice any resemblamce between Capt Kangaroo and Bela Karolyi?

I'm just sayin'.

Whata week

I have to say I love the Olympics. We have been sucked in all week. From the swimming to the gymnastics to the track and field. I even was intrigued by the fencing. Wow.

Am I ever inspired to get int he pool.

Today was great. We are right in the middle of the series Nuts and Bolts, and today I spoke about having great friends. David and Jonathan kind of friends.

Cant wait to continue into the fall with www.mymarriageisdead.com We have had almost 1300 hits on the site this week.

Pray with me that 100 marriages can be changed for God's glory.

Here is a link to the medal standings. Just in case your an Olympian dreamer like our house.

Man, our IT dept, graphics, and video guys just rock. They have finished the site and its up and running.

You can check it out here. Ryan Rogness did and amazing job designing all this. Kevin Starkey shot and edited a powerful video. Paul (our IT Team Leader at the church) worked it all together to make it live on the net.

Besides that all the actors, all the prayers, and everyone else involved... A big Thank You.

I cant wait to see what God is going to do with this powerful series on our city in September.

The 6 Billboards will be up on Monday all over town.

Everyone pray that God moves peoples hearts to be a part of this series. We are believing God to transform marriages, hearts and lives.

Bluetooth

Just figured out how to link my computer to my headset via bluetooth. Awesome.

Now I can listen to whatever through my headset!

How cool, I love technology. Listening to s sermon right now as I type!

The site is almost done. Man is it awesome. Our fall series kicks off Sept 7th. www.mymarriageisdead.com hopefully the site is live this Saturday.

We have 6 billboards up on Monday, and 25000 mailers going out. BE in prayer that this series will draw and change lives for the kingdom.

I believe with all my heart in John 10:10. Jesus came so that we can have life to the full, in abundance. He wants people to have above average marriages. It can happen when Jesus is the center.
