1. When I arrived at the movie theatre a few minutes after 7:30 AM on this glorious Easter Sunday morning I was not the 1ST or 2ND or 3RD person to arrive. I was more like the 25TH person to arrive. A few people such as Pastor Paul and Alex and Tom were there all night long (just like Lionel Richie).
2. For the first time ever we did 3 services on a Sunday morning – at 8:30, 9:40, and 10:50. It’s a good thing that we did. All 3 of them were pretty much full – especially the first service. The parking lot was full, the main lobby was buzzin’ with activity, the hallways were congested, and the services were alive and kickin’. God was all over the place from Campbell Drive southward all throughout the entire Flagship Cinemas complex. He was livin’ large and totally in charge !
3. I didn’t recognize the faces of about 50% of those that showed up for Easter Sunday services this morning. A bunch of our guests got to know us at Harris Field this past Friday night. A bunch of our guests got their first glimpse of the goings-on of our church on this Sunday morning. Some of them will return again next week, and we will recognize them. Some of them will return again next Christmas or even next Easter Sunday. Some of them will never return again. If we introduced just one man, woman, or child to Jesus Christ this morning, and that person is saved and joins us on His fantastic journey then it was all worth it my friend. Saving just one person will always be more important than any other number.
4. I drove Pastor Paul’s ‘soccer-mom-minivan’ for the first time ever this morning. I got tired of looking at it parked illegally right in front of the front doors, so I took matters into my own hands. I grabbed the keys from Ms. Annie H. and I parked that thing over at Christ Fellowship across the street. (Just kidding – I parked it in a legal parking space nearby.)
5. Pastor Travis was particularly loopy this morning during the 10:50 service. I think he overdosed on caffeine again. But he got the message out in-between the laughter. Jesus Christ was human – just like us. Jesus was a guy – just like us. Jesus was funny – just like us. Jesus was passionate – just like us. Jesus had emotions – just like us. Jesus had financial problems. Jesus was verbally and physically attacked. Jesus was lonely. Jesus was sorrowful. Jesus was exhausted. Jesus cried. Jesus bled. Jesus died. Jesus did all of that for us and for this moment in time. Jesus died on that cross so that we could Live !

There were so many people that were new. It was cool seeing people from Turkey Point show up unexpectedly. Apparently my dad has been pretty busy spreading the word.
