Clarity

It's been a while since I have logged on, so there are probably like two people who will read this.


This past week we wrapped up another "practice" for our church plant Velocity. It has been an interesting learning experience. Setting up, tearing down, "what goes where, how many of these do we need, what exactly do these things do?" So many questions, and sometimes I just want to crawl in a hole in the ground.

This coming week is our last practice before our official launch. It seemed like only yesterday I moved back to Georgia looking for a place to get involved, and now we are about to launch. I am excited to see what God is going to do through this little plant. I look to the future to see other churches planted in the Villa Rica and Dallas areas.

I don't know how or why, but sometimes we get so caught up in the "ins and outs" of church that we lose sight of Jesus and HIS mission. I pray that the pastors on staff here can keep Jesus lifted high and ourselves as low as possible.

A couple of things I am really looking forward to:

- Georgia vs. South Carolina this weekend
- Worship this Sunday
- The official launch of Velocity Church
- CATALYST!!! (It's going to be AWESOME!)

Dude, I know how you feel about two (2) people reading your blog. That's why I shut mine down. It was a waste. One person regularly read it.

Dude, don't take this personally but I have a pet peave about college football. I could care less about it. My theory is if you didn't go to a particular college, you don't have a right to cheer for it. (Unless you know people there or your kids go there). Even if I live in the same state where there is a major college university like UCLA, Ill, or Florida State. I have no connection to them and therefore have no right to say, go Minnesota, or whatever. What's worse is when people bet on college sports. I mean, who in their right mind would bet money on something where the outcome depends on what 19 to 23 year old kids do.

Well, I can understand your "pet peave" because we all have a different way of looking at things. I love Georgia football, and nothing will change that. Those 19 to 21 year olds could lose every weekend and I would still watch every game.

Most people that go for a college that they never attended usually don't have a pro team to cheer on or at least a quality pro team. :)
