A little QT!

There is always seasons in our lives that can make things easier or harder. It may be something your going through at that time that can make life seem like a mess or like you have it all together. Whatever the case may be we NEED some Quality Time with God!

Usually we turn to God in desperation because of a situation (Oh God, Oh God, I need a miracle) but what would happen if we lived in a desperation mode for God all the time? What if we lived our lives knowing we are consistently in need of Him?

If you want to know someone you spend time with them. You talk..... and you listen. If your married and you want to know what makes your spouse tick you listen. You know they like a certain food or what their favorite movie is. You just know what matters to them and what they see as important. The more QT we spend with God reading the Bible, praying and listening the more we will know about God and His heart.

I encourage you to take just a few minutes if thats all you have and just pause.......maybe just listen! See what God is saying to you today. He knows us, so now we need to get to know Him.

At The Movies




I cant believe we only have one week left!
It has been a crazy month with Red carpet, Paparazzi, Crazy Ninjas, Farm animals, A special dance by Noah and his "crew", and lots of people!
I am so thankful and blessed to have a part in all of this. Life Church is seeing people come to Jesus and experience life change and that my friend is the best part of it! Lets continue to seek God and expect BIG things! I really feel we are just starting to scratch the surface with whats to come!
Thank you to all of the volunteers who have helped out so much, you all are amazing!

Song Links and Sunday Love

Like A LionLike a Lion - Mountains Move
Shout Unto GodLike a Lion - Mountains Move
I Exalt TheeI Exalt Thee (feat. Chris Quilala) - Your Love Never Fails

Sunday finished up the series Who Do You Think You Are?

In case you don't remember or need a reminder this is what you are!
YOU ARE:
AN AMBASSADOR
A MASTERPIECE
AN OVERCOMER
SALT AND LIGHT
A DISCIPLE

If you have to right them down and put them on your mirror or fridge as a reminder. Speak it out! It sounds crazy but if the situation looks tough say I am an overcomer!! As a follower of Christ we know who we are. We may think we've lost track or forgotten but these 5 characteristics are so important! DON'T FORGET IT!! You are a son or daughter of the King of Kings!

Invite people like crazy to this next series. It is going to be with Pastor Steven Furtick and I promise its going to be good! It is called Sun Stand Still and it will change you!

Don't just talk about it this week.....Be the Church!!

Salt & Light

Taste and See We Believe - Brian Johnson & Jenn Johnson
Like a Lion Like a Lion - Mountains Move
God of Second Chances God of Second Chances - Ragamuffin Soul
How He LovesHow He Loves (Single Version) - The Medicine

Another amazing Sunday!! God is really moving at Life Church and I am so honored to have a part!!!

Patrick challenged us as a church to get plugged in! Are you one of the people on the fence just thinking about it? Now is the best time ever to get in. We are about to move and its all going to change so everyone will be starting fresh!!

You have the opportunity to pour into peoples lives. You can be a part of Life Change!!! You can get in on the ground floor of something way bigger than you and me! People are coming from all over to come to Life Church. How cool (and crazy) is that? You could be the smile they needed, or the person to love on their kids or even the one to park their car!

I encourage you to find your fit. We have a place for you guaranteed.

Really, there is no good excuse not to help if you say you are a part of Life Church. If you have a good one then tell me because I would like to hear it!

God is for you, So do something!!

All I can say is WOW!

We Have Overcome We Have Overcome - We Are Alive
Joyful(The One Who Saves) Joyful - Joyful - Single
Desert Song Desert Song (Live) - This Is Our God (Live)
This City Is Yours This City Is Yours - Kingdom Come

Man, What is going on? Life Church blowing up! I wish you could have seen it from our view when the lights came up. We were all in shock...People everywhere!!

God is moving and in a BIG way here. We have seen week after week people crossing over from death to LIFE!! I get so excited hearing the stories of lives being changed and seeing the transformation. Thank you Jesus for letting me be a part of this!!

Yesterday was about being an overcomer. You are an OVERCOMER!! Gods word is faithful and true. His promises are Yes and Amen. Walk in that. Walk in the victory that is already set before you. Just like we sang yesterday = All of my life, in every season You are still God and I have a reason to sing, I have a reason to worship!! Sing that over yourself if you need too, hey sing it or say it over yourself even if you don't!!

I know I say it every week but we are a part of something BIG here. This isn't the norm but you know what.......it should be. Churches should be growing. Lives should be changing. No more will we sit on the sidelines as Christian's. Its time to get busy! Its time to get our hands dirty and do some work. If you just go to church then why come? Why not get involved? There really is no good excuse for doing nothing. Sounds harsh but, its true and its how I feel!!

Its an honor to serve with you!

Hey Life Church!!
What a Sunday! Man you all are getting more and more pumped each week. It is awesome to see and hear what God is doing among us! We are seeing Salvation's, growth like crazy, life change, community and a joy for the Church like never before. I want to encourage(push may be a better word) to invite people to church on Sunday. Invite your neighbors, your post man, your family, even invite your enemies to Life Church. Our heart is to see lives changed. We pray and plan and prepare for each Sunday with expectation. We don't get up at 5am on Sunday because its fun. We do it because we LOVE it. We do it because we are PASSIONATE about people becoming fully devoted followers of CHRIST. Lives are being changed. Our community is being changed. People are going from death to life! How stinking awesome is that? WOW! If that doesn't get you excited then what are you doing? Why do you come or even go to church? Are you alive? If you are a committed follower of Jesus and you just come to church to hang out and get fed then your missing the point. We want you to grow and we want you to be there but we want people that are far from Christ to be there. We as a staff cant invite everyone. We don't have the same area of influence that you do. We don't know everyone that you know. Use that to your advantage!!!
Its time for us to step it up. Myself as a Pastor and a Leader of Life Church is committing right now to YOU that I am stepping it up. 110%! Lets do this together. If we as church step up our game things will happen like we've never imagined. Lets make such a difference that if we were gone....... People would actually notice. Why wait? Start today. Invite your coworker or who ever. 9 out of 10 people will say yes to you so do it! I believe in you!

Lets get busy!!!!
