• This was our 4th week at the Morrow Center, our new Sunday worship venue, and we’re loving every minute of it!
• This Sunday was also the first week that we adjusted the arrival times for various teams within our service ministries. Band & tech teams, children’s workers, and coffee bar crew still arrived at 8:15am, while ushers, greeters, and parking lot teams didn’t arrive until 9:00am. The set-up of all environments didn’t miss a beat and the folks who got to arrive a little later really seemed to appreciate it.
• Technical problem. The Morrow Center director took the day off and his assistant worked with us. She was unable to get the grand ballroom projector to power up so we were unable to use it to display words during worship or during the message. She was really upset that she wasn’t able to power it up for us (she was actually crying, and she called her boss and asked him to come and assist her) but we were just fine. In fact, Sunday turned out to be one of the most powerful worship gatherings we’ve ever experienced in the life of our new church.
• Sunday’s set list: Lord You Are Awesome, Better Than Life, Glorify Your Name, and In This Place.
• At the end of worship, we prayed for Joseph Calhoun, our 17 yr old acoustic guitar player, and his family. Joseph’s mom passed away last Friday night. His dad, brothers, and a few other family members came down front as the Holy Spirit ministered to them powerfully during that time of prayer.
• The message I preached was part 3 of our exegetical journey through the Book of Galatians. We walked through the first 25 verses of Galatians 3, Paul’s defense of Justification by Faith Alone (sola fide).
• We closed the service with Communion and altar prayer, while the band and worship team sang Everything.
• This upcoming Sunday we move into part 4 of our “Free at Last!” series, Galatians 3:26-4:7.
• …Hope to see you Sunday!
