Sunday Replay

It has been a more than full last two weeks, so I’m excited to be on a somewhat normal schedule this week.  So in this replay, I’ll share a bit of the last two weeks in the life of myself and the Ridge.  Here we go!

• I’m still trying to process all that I learned from Velocity and also from Unleash last week.  You can read some of my notes from Velocity here on the blog, watch the replay main sessions HERE and you can see some of Unleash HERE
• Speaking of Unleash, it gets better and better every year.  I really love heading to Anderson and Newspring to spend that time with our team.  I encourage you to get to Unleash next year and take as many of your team as you can.  You really can’t afford NOT to.
• Also, they announced THIS at Unleash.  Here’s a little secret….those of us in the coaching network have known about it since last year.  And YES…we are taking our team!
• The Newspring Church volunteers and staff take caring for pastors and church staffs/teams to another level
• Maybe I’ll post notes from Unleash later…we’ll see
• This past Sunday, we continued our series You Asked For It by answering the question, “I have a little jingle in my pocket, a few nice things, but does God want me to be poor?”
• The answer….?  That’s up to God.  The point for all of us…wealthy, poor, in the middle…it’s generosity.
• We announced Sunday that we want to buy you a drink on Tuesday night, March 23rd.  Yup, drinks are on us…at Starbucks…from 6:30pm to 8pm.  Come hang with us! We’re really buying your drink…caffeine drink that is!
• Also announced that March 28th and April 4th we’ll be meeting at Oak Ridge High School due to some scheduling issues at the Doubletree Hotel.  No worries, cause we’re going all out on Easter.
• Easter at the Ridge will be super special several reasons…1) It’s Easter. Nuff said.  2) It’s our FIRST Easter as a church. 3) We’re taking over the auditorium at Oak Ridge High School.  It’s up to YOU to get the word out and get THERE! Let’s fill it up!
• God continues to send new people our way every week.  We’re so blessed to be growing and seeing God change lives.  That’s why we do what we do.
• I know I say it every week, but we really do have some super HUGE things coming in the coming weeks that I can’t wait to share with you.  We’re letting the vision for these things “marinate” right now.  When the time is right…we’ll let you know!
• Next week for part 3 of You Asked For It we’re answering questions about the end times.  I gotta be honest…it’s stretching me as I’ve been studying for this one.  The subject isn’t my strong suite so I hope I can do it justice.
• In two weeks, we’re answering your questions LIVE! Yup that’s right…anything goes…ok…well ALMOST anything.  But we’ll answer all we can!
