If it's daylight savings time then why do you lose an hour?
Still, we had an awesome turnout and a great Spirit of love for God and each other today that seemed to me to permeate the whole service. Whether it was Harriet Standifer's heartfelt comments about her church family, the kid's skit, Bethany and Sarah or Lia's piano specials, or maybe just starting with a rousing New Hope version of "Gotta Serve Somebody", it was special.
The worship music lineup went:
Gotta Serve Somebody - by someone named Bob Dylan
O Praise Him - by David Crowder
O Worship the King - Christ Tomlin
Made Me Glad - Hillsong
and I Surrender All.
I struggled with the text all week. How do you bring across the force and scope of what Jesus was calling His followers to be and do - really? It's been so long since He stated what He expected and we've watered it down so.
Was reading some just last night and it jumped off the page (Thanks Len Sweet) - Christians are NOT NORMAL.
So I tried to lay it all out there and challenge each of us to live out the crazy love Jesus gave us.
