Weekend Reflections

I felt like I was still recovering from Easter heading into this weekend, but fortunately God has enough energy for all of us!

• My Lil’ Raiders won in convincing fashion.  Drew up a reverse halfback option play that kept the defense on their heels
• Lots of visitors Saturday night; it just keeps growing.
• All 3 services on Sunday are full.  We need people to move to Saturday night. You’ll be hearing more about that.
• Felt the message was very simple and practical: which equated to powerful. God seemed to be using it in very specific ways.
• D-Lo brought great leadership and insight this week. Seriously, at the end of the worship I felt full, before the message!
• The worship might have been that much better because my bride was on stage this weekend
• Live Like You Were Dying really seems to be hitting people.
• Ryan and Adrienne had their 3rd son Friday morning! Yeah!!
• Lots of hurting people right now: what a chance for the local church to shine.
• Praying for teachers and administrators right now; the schools are hurting.

Lori and I are in California for the Catalyst West Coast Conference. We have a team of 42 from Palm Valley here, with staff and volunteer leaders.  It’s going to be an awesome type of growth with our team.  Pray for our leaders, that God challenges us to a whole ‘nutha level at Palm Valley Church!
