SPUR Influence

This coming Sunday can't get here fast enough. As I announced yesterday, we're starting a brand new series that we are JACKED about: SPUR ~ Living a Life of Influence (if you didn't see the intro video we rolled, you really should go check it out at www.lhc.org -- it's worth 45 seconds of your time. John Fones shot and edited some of the best stuff we've ever seen).

If you had to capture the essence of the church's purpose in one word, it would be influence. That's why we're here. It should be what we do. Individually, there's nothing more fulfilling, joyful, or satisfying than influencing or leading someone (or a group of someones) to accomplish something of significance.

So...this weekend, we need to do a couple of things:
1. Invite, Invite, Invite someone you know to encounter the love of God this weekend in our services.
2. Please--especially if you have children birth-kindergarten and you've been going to the 10:15 service--move into the 9:00 service. You'll enjoy the extra room in the parking lot and in the Basecamp area, and in addition, you'll be making room for guests and newcomers to find parking and seats at the 10:15 service.

As I was walking out the door to go to lunch today, I had just finished three morning meetings and looking forward to an all-afternoon planning session, I just started laughing because I love my job just that much. It is a very real JOY RIDE.
