I'm fired up about worship.
We were created to worship God. Nothing else in this world will satisfy us. I am fired up about the up and coming mini-series on Worship beginning this Sunday. You don't want to miss it. Yes, we will even spend some time on the kind of "worship style" God likes. (That's going to be fun!) I want this series of sermons to leave you longing for more of God--only HE can satisfy us. Come and invite a friend or neighbor. And let's enjoy God together.
This Sunday night we have an awesome evening planned for our students in the Well. We are planning to rock the house with Christian rock band Attaboy along with special guest artists Nine Lashes, NF, and The Wedding. We love our teens, and we are "working hard with them for their joy" (2 Corinthians 1:24). And don't forget, fall ministries are in full swing with AWANA starting tonight!
All in For Your Joy,
Lionel
