Energy

I had a great meeting this morning with our Focus team....(these are the staff team leaders of each of our ministry areas) about how we will take the November "Spin" series and apply it throughout the life of this church! Our in every series is not just to do something good but to do something that applies and is pushed throughout the life of the church!!

While we were meeting with the team, you could just feel the energy building as we talked about ways we can all make this happen! It was incredible and there is going to be some great stuff come from it!

It would be so easy to sit and build a message series in isolation and then people just show up & hear it on Sunday's....but we believe that the weekend message is part of the life-blood of the church and every ministry is affected! I love doing things as a team and I always leave those meetings with new ideas and a fresh perspective on what we are sharing! I also love to know what is going on in ministries and when it ties in, I can push it in the message (Rick Warren is the master of this)!! If we do not keep moving this way, each ministry can become a "silo" and exist to itself and the church can begin to serve the ministry rather than the ministry serve the church......scary stuff there!

I love the team here!!!
