We had a great weekend @ Church by the Glades. The worship set had 2 new jams and one of my current favorite tunes, “Jesus Paid it All” by Kristian Stanfill. In addition, Pastor David brought the heat again.
We are in the midst of a series called “No Perfect People Allowed.” In this weeks message, Pastor David talked about the diversity that should be found in the Body of Christ. That is another cool thing about our church–we are definitely diverse! To highlight the teaching time, the worship team rocked out to Toby Mac’s “Diverse City.”
Probably the most memorable line for me this weekend was, “Come as you are, but don’t stay that way.” In my opinion, that is what being a Christian is all about; discerning truth and being bold enough to apply it.
Pastor David used some of Rob Bell’s stuff. Specifically, Rob’s stuff on Jewish history/tradition. To be honest, I am not a huge Rob Bell fan. I don’t really agree with all his conclusions. However, no one can argue about Rob’s knowledge of Jewish history/tradition. From all accounts, he puts a lot of time into learning and knowing it. Right or wrong, he is big on that stuff in his writing…
All in all, I am looking forward to the conclusion of the series next week. There is a video testimony in the works that is going to be great if Pastor David decides to use it. I might also try call in a favor and have Pastor Justin do “Jesus Paid it All” again…what a great song…
UPDATE: Word on the street is that the Worship Team is going to be doing a Daughtry tune…Which one you ask? You will have to come and find out for yourself…
