LAST SUNDAY we looked at the Church in Ephesus. We learned 3 things we need to value from the letter to that church. The thing I believe God was saying to me was to be more obsessed with REPENTANCE and not REPUTATION! That's HUGE! I hope you were there, and I hope that you showed up expecting to hear from God.
Sunday was a BIG day in the attendance category for us. We broke our launch Sunday attendance with 612 people. I celebrate that because each number represents a soul with eternity at stake!! However, God is not just GREAT and AMAZING because we had 612 people. He was GREAT and AMAZING before last Sunday and will continue to be so, no matter what. He is GREAT and AMAZING for just who He is and not only what He does! I don't know about you, but I've learned the hard way to remember that!!
THIS SUNDAY is going to be our BEST one yet! I'm not just saying that; I am believing that and I need you you to believe and pray that also. We have been praying and asking God who we need to invite and for Him to do what He wants to do this weekend. I am asking that we see 800 people show up to our Campus and that He would bring 80 people from death to life! That will not happen if we are not inviting people we know who need to know Jesus. I am praying specifically for my neighbors to come this weekend. We have invited them to church before, but we are not giving up. I am also praying for Sue who waited on me at a restaurant earlier this week. I invited her and I'm praying that she makes it.
There is still time. Who are you inviting?
We are meeting in Ballroom B and part of Ballroom C. Load-in will be at 4am. You should join us! We really do have a great time and for the last few weeks we've been done by 5:30am. So, you could still get home and catch a nap before church starts. If you can't come early, hang around after the 11:15 service to help load-out!
Ownership Class is also this Sunday at 2:30pm at the office. (2093 Executive Hall Road, Charleston, SC 29407.) If you want to know more about the church or are interested in joining, Ownership Class is where that can happen. See you there!
CAN'T WAIT FOR SUNDAY!!
