Home Again!

I'm pleased to announce that I am safely home. A pleasant night of sound sleep, a great visit to church in South Carolina this morning and best of all... no gunfire. Once again we learned a lot at our visit and more than that, the worship experience was awesome.

But to the point... we learned or confirmed:

• Portable church is NOT a death-sentence for the church - just ask the 1800+ folks we worshiped with this morning
  
• Doing portable church can create an awesome energy among the people that serve
• The Holy Spirit can work - no matter where the church is located
• There are two "3:30's" in every day!
• Waking at 3:30am to get church ready IS worth it!
• But we will not likely have to start that early here
  

There's more... but I was awake at 3:20 this morning and it's time for bed.

Still learning... and some news

Another church visit this weekend, the last of six scheduled visits to help us learn how to do portable church. Gail isn't with me this time so a bit of the fun is missing for me but an awesome crew has already made this trip great and church isn't until Sunday!

We're in Greenvile S.C. at a hotel and the room-connecting door between the room Vic and I are in and the room next door has been kicked in from the other side - the door trim is completely destroyed and I fully expect to hear gunfire before morning. I think I'll sleep under the bed.

Anyway, As I sit here crouching under the window, I am WILDLY excited about what God is already doing in and through Rock Bridge Chatsworth. We've seen so many God-things happen and we haven't even started! Our church staff is amazing and I love how we have joined together to honor God's leading in every detail.

That said, as we follow His leading we always find Him waiting for us and this week we experienced that again. No details for now but suffice it to say that He has proven that He can indeed do more than we ask or imagine.

Hold on chatsworth. This ride is going to be AMAZING!
