Good
- Worship was good, aside from one slipup. The song selection was great:
- Home by Daughtry
- Battle Cry by Michael Gungor Band
- Song of the Redeemed by Charlie Hall
- Jesus Paid it All by Kristian Stanfill
- Never Let Me Go by Hillsong United
- I’ve been told that the message was great.
That’s always a good thing. I preached from 1 John 3:11-23. To love God takes a change in our inward tendencies, which only comes through belief in Christ. Belief in Christ is equivalent to loving God, which results in us loving people. Inward tendencies result in outward actions. - Our welcomers, I’ve been told, were extremely friendly.
- Communion went smoothly.
- The mission was put forth. By both Donald and myself.
- We did get video (in HD) of 3/4 the service.
Bad
- At the end of Battle Cry, there was a little transition/crowd-participation “glitch”. Lesson learned. It’s fun to laugh at on video though.
- The video cut off short.
- Couldn’t record straight from the sound board.
- Didn’t have start up/ending music.
- Sound was a little off.
- Transition from music to speaking was way longer than it should’ve been.
Ugly
- Two words: “Oh, oh”.
- Only five people in the center.
- Miranda and I fighting over a pickle during lunch. Not really…it was pretty funny. Will’s comment about pickle availability was hilarious.
Looking Forward To
- Seeing people get involved and on mission (we had 14 recorded visitors!)
- Growth for Easter
- The art show taking shape
- Working out the details
