Wild Ride

Last week was a wild ride and it kept on through the week-end.  It was an incredible week in every way.  I participated in the Southeastern University Leadership Forum in Lakeland, Florida and had a great time.  I got to hear so many powerful speakers that my mind is still processing what I heard :)  From Henry Cloud to Tim Sanders, from TD Jakes to Jack Welch.... It was incredible!  I flew home to speak at the TN Worship Conference on Saturday and then had a powerful day of Services on Sunday. This has been one of the most intense and heartfelt series that I have ever shared.  The idea that every life counts is so central to the Christian life yet the truth is that most (professing) Christians seem to care less about the people around them even while the teachings of Christ tell us to love others as we love ourselves.... How can I say that?  If we really cared and believed in the missional values of Jesus wouldn’t everyone of us be passionate about reaching everyone around us?  I am AMPED about this month and the fire of God that is burning at LTG.  Living To Go Church is missional in name and in Spirit and now it’s time to be missional in action!  What are you doing this week to touch someone’s life?  What are you going to sacrifice to invest in someone else today.  Close the laptop (for a bit :) turn of the playstation, unplug the TV and love someone this week.
