Monday Morning Recap for Sunday – March 14, 2010

Spring break Sunday is always a lower-attended sunday than normal - and couple that with spring forward sunday . . . We opened yesterday with You Lifted Me Out - great tune. Lots of energy, and I like the "oh's"After our call to worship, we sang Because of Your Love, No Other Name - a newer song from Todd Fields, Breathe, and How Deep the Father's Love For Us. Our offering song was a "re-introduction" of a newer tune by Fee called Glory to God.Palm Sunday Program is in 2 weeks. Come join us. 9AM and 10:30.

Bono and Justice/Mercy

I saw this last night . . . Blown away by Bono on this interview, his knowledge of the scriptures and his heart for the least. It's an excellent use of 8:38[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=grBByc7t3Fs&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0]

Video Production for Palm Sunday

Will and I have been shooting some video for our Palm Sunday program - which now has a title, and graphics.It's been amazing, exciting, emotional, and humbling as we've asked the same three questions to over 20 people now, and to hear the personal and vulnerable responses coming back. I'm amazed at the work of the gospel as it's penetrating the lives of folks at oak mountain, where they're willing to look into a camera and share where they struggle, but more importantly, where their hope is found . . . I'm excited to share these with you - i…

The Blind Carbon Copy

I love the blind carbon copy (not really). We've all done it, or had it done to us . . . it's the practice of sending an email and blind copying someone else - so your original recipient doesn't see that you've also sent the message to a friend, a boss, a co-worker . ..

We put on our "sunday best" - whether that be a face, or clothes, or expectations for our kids,…
