Last night it really seemed like our ministry had a great sense of God’s presence. I’m so grateful for that. What a blessing to be back in action. Here were some of the high points for me.
- I loved the worship…that song “Revolution”… “we run to seek your face”…what a blast! Nate, Zach, Josh, and Dana…you guys rocked it!
- Seeing everyone again…it was really fun to reconnect with so many students…some from OGN others from clear back last semester.
- Leaders…I don’t know that I’ve ever been a part of such a solid and seasoned leadership team. I was thanking God this morning for the solid base of leadership we have to help students with this year. It’s pretty exciting for us to be able to share our journey with High School students. I know God is going to use this team.
- The environment was alive! Chris Parliament did a kicking job with the set. Jeff E., Cody, and Michael did a nails jobs with running tech and lights…so proud of you guys. The video was awesome!
- I had the chance to walk around to the different Life Groups last night. How fun to see offices, the gym, an old recording office, etc. full of circles of people! There were like 115 students here last night. That’s amazing!
- I had a cool/unplanned moment right at the beginning of the teaching. I felt like it was of God…I mentioned right away that “Jesus changes everything”…and as I looked the crowd I really sensed that many were really interested in that reality. There was a sense of hunger last night.
Last night I was reminded of the journey that we are embarking on this school year. It really is a journey…and I’m excited for it! God we give you much thanks for our first night!
