Monday Emotions...

Great and wild Sunday!

We looked this week at the idea of “I Doubt I Need Jesus.” While most would agree we need Jesus for salvation, we often forget and don't fully understand how much we need Him in our day-to-day lives. It ended up being a wonderful topic of discussion!

But before we could get there... We founds out Miramar Rd was closed from 3am to 10am due to a car accident. I got a ton of emails from folks saying, hey I couldn't get to church but I did have a GREAT breakfast!! Classic, I love it!

Highlights from Sunday:

* Our ladies had their women’s retreat this weekend. I heard from everyone it was UNREAL! Way to go women’s leadership team, you guys are STUDS. :)

* We had almost 100 people come to first service. The wild part is, they had to walk several blocks to get to church. It was pretty wild to see people skateboarding in and jumping fences to be here. Cool sight!

* We had a ton of new people at both services. It's always a wonderful experience to see God’s kingdom going forward, one of us at a time!

* Josh Carter announced we will be launching our holiday missional project this coming Sunday. We have some awesome partnerships and opportunities to serve our city!

* Worship was solid. We had the chance to talk openly at the end of second service of how we really want to be a church that worships God. Often it feels as if something is holding us back. We are going to actively pray that changes!!! God is SO worthy of our worship. Amen??

* Chargers won - right on!

* We finished of the last C2C class for the year. My favorite is the third, we talk about values and it always fires me up! We had 180 people go through the class this year. Very cool. Did you go through it? If not, get on it next year!

Final thoughts...

We are in the middle of the last quarter of the year - crazy! I want to remind you that we are going to finish out this year with a bang! We are expanding our facility, serving the poor and including the disconnected in the process. This is an awesome picture of what it looks like to advance God’s kingdom.

Are you a part of the picture?
