Sunday Reflex 9-12-10

Wow. What an incredible weekend. There's almost no way I can share all that happened this weekend and all that pumps me up about it, but I'll try!

• One of the best Children's Ministry Training events I've ever seen on Saturday. Way to go, Mitch, Jenny, Doug, and the entire Children's ministry team!  
• Trained a whole new group of  new Life_Groups who will start new groups this week!
• We now have almost 400 new adults signed up for Group Launch this Wed night! WOW!
• Todd Nichols has now introduced yet a another great song he's written, entitled: "Send Revival, Lord" to the MLC crowd. GREAT STUFF AGAIN, bro!
• Kicked off our new series: "Parental Advisory."
• We rocked the house with "Life is a Highway" and THEN...
• I drove a black Mustang GT on to the stage!

• "This symbolizes one of the greatest fears we have as parents: The day we turn over the keys to the car to our kids."
• "Whether we realize it or not, we're all getting ready to turn over the keys, and I don't mean the keys to the car but the keys to this highway called life!"
• "I don't care what kind of training we're doing with our kids, it requires repetition. Training requires consistency."
• "Even when our kids are inconsistent, we've got to be consistent in our reactions."
• "Our kids are going to veer off the road. We just can't go with them!"
• "We've also got to be consistent on our example. If we want our kids to be sexually pure, then we've gt to be sexually pure. If we want them to have a great marriage, we've got to start building a great one!"
• "Consistency builds credibility and reliability."
• "God is our Heavenly Father, and not only has He set the example to us. He had offered Himself to us! He wants to live in and through us and help build consistency in our lives as parents."
• Newcomer's Lunch after the services: with over 100 people there! 
• EVOLVE Middle & High School last night at MLC. GREAT NIGHT! Pics below say it all!

 

• Last but surely not least, we launched a NEW CHURCH yesterday in Hall County called Revolution Church! Congrats to Shad Treadaway and all the Revolution Team on a successful launch! 
• God is rocking our church and is  using our church to rock our community, nation, and world! To HIM be the glory!
