Week of April 12, 2009
Easter was interesting and the best is yet to be seen. As I said at the Easter Sunday service I used the idea that people will often go to church if they are asked. I decided to put what Pastor Phil preached into practice this past week and asked someone who clearly said that “They gave up on God because they believe God has given up on him”. At our worship service we invited every person to ask God for a long shot in their life and do something that defies the odds. I could not believe it when I saw this person come up to the cross and ask God for a long shot. It was like a parade of people. Women had to be given tissues. One person came up to me and said that he is a pastor and that was the most powerful symbol of what God can do and wants to do. He asked me if I came up with the idea. I said, “No! My staff back home!” Praise God for my church and my staff!”
