Bedtime Stories

Greetings Friends. It’s time for the Sunday night edition of ‘Bedtime Stories’.

What a crazy week it’s been here on this blog. Monday (April 14TH) was the ‘best day ever’ – by far. The following day – Tuesday (‘Tax Day’) – was the biggest Tuesday in our history. As it turns out it was our biggest 7-day (Monday to Sunday) week EVER !  Thanks so much for blogging with me – whether you read and run or read and comment. It is most appreciative !

This upcoming week I’ve got some really cool stuff coming up. I’ve got another exciting edition of ‘The Fortune Cookie Message Of The Week Club’ tomorrow (Monday) afternoon. Get ready for a special on-location in Orlando edition of the ‘Tuesday Night Grab Bag O’ Thoughts’, as well as at least a couple of special editions of the ‘Tossed Salad’ from the 2008 National New Church Conference in Orlando. I may even throw in another edition of ‘The Chris Day Club’ while I’m at it !

Incidentally if you wish to see some pictures of me here on this blog then send some pictures of me via E-Mail. I keep getting my picture taken at Life Pointe Church services and events, yet I never see those pictures. Somebody has those pictures of me. If you send them to me than I will post some of them for all to see. I don’t own a camera. I have never owned a camera. I don’t want a camera. I have a photographic memory. I am fortunate for that, but most people are not.  😉

OK that’s my schpeel for tonight. I wish you all a safe, peaceful, and blessed Sunday night with your loved ones. Take good care of yourselves, and I’ll see you all again … when I see you all again … which means Tuesday morning for a bunch of you that will be in Orlando with me.

Good Night Everyone !  Good Night Venus !

Life Pointe Church Sunday Morning Tossed Salad

1.  You can arrive at the movie theatre as early as you wish on a Sunday morning, but you’ve got to get there mighty early in order to beat Executive Pastor Paul to the punch. Anne J. arrived in third place (this is not a competition), but more importantly her voice was back to full-strength again !

2.  Paul stated that I can add new poppin’ and rockin’ songs to the iPod that plays loud and proud in the main lobby. This contradicts everything that he has stated about this subject in the past to me. I will get to work – just as soon as I buy a docking station for the iPod so that I can pull those iTunes off of my computer here at home.

3.  ‘The Fortune Cookie Message Of The Week Club’ now has about 400 new members due to the fact that we gave away about 5,000 fortune cookies to our guests, attenders, and members this morning. They are in support of our fresh new message series that begins two weeks from today.

4.  Lead Pastor Travis returned to lead our two services this morning, and he delivered some of his most sincere discussions and powerful teachings to date. After the shenanigans that occurred last Sunday afternoon at Homestead Bayfront Park these were the ‘can’t miss’ Sunday morning services from Travis. We discussed 10 places that Jesus is today:

– Jesus physically ascended into Heaven.
– Jesus is in Heaven with departed Christians.
– Jesus sits at the right hand of God the Father.
– Jesus sits on a throne.
– Jesus rules and reigns as Sovereign, King, and Lord.
– Jesus intercedes as our living God-man mediator.
– Jesus grants His spiritual authority to Christians.
– Jesus is preparing a room for us in His Father’s house.
– Jesus is enjoying an urban paradise.
– Jesus is with us as we bring the Gospel to the world.

5.  Right now as I conclude this week’s edition of the ‘Tossed Salad’ here at home about three-dozen regular attenders of Life Pointe Church are over at The Capri restaurant in Florida City making that next big step to become official members of their church. It is not the church that they go to. It is not the church at the movie theatre. It is my church. It is your church. It is our church. We are the church. We are the living breathing body that is the church. We are the church no matter where we are – at home, at the movie theatre, at Publix, at the Capri, on Florida’s Turnpike, on South Beach, in Orlando. Everywhere. Be the church. Represent.
