the church plant ...


5 weeks ago, we planted our Sunday morning Stirring on Eureka Way ... the Stirring with pews ... it's been a crazy few weeks ... we've been tackling the elephants in the church ... greed and sex and politics and pornography ... the perfect way to plant a church ...

props to our launch team ... they're on it ... the prayer team and the worship team and the Stirring Kids team and the greeters and the sound guys and all our amazing Sunday morning peeps ... we're so proud of you ... your love for Jesus and your passion for people ...

we've met so many new families and couples and students ... this past Sunday, we had over 18 preschoolers in one of our 5 classrooms ... unbelievable ... God is speaking and God is filling and God is moving ... I'm so grateful ...

as we move into this stressful, busy, hurried, rushed and depressing holiday season, my prayer is that we would SLOW down enough to hear God's voice, to sit at His feet, to rest in His presence ... God is calling us face to face ... may we live face to face with Jesus ...

Christian words ...


just met with the Sunday morning Launch Team ...
great evening at the Gafner's ...
chips and salsa and iced tea and carrot cake ...
we can't wait for the Stirring with pews ...

so, tonight we banned a few good ol' Christian words ...
like fellowship and dovetail and congregation ...
and of course, potluck ...
so, we need a new word for the 'after church' potluck ... any ideas?

Sean Gafner's suggestion ... the Feast ...
