Sunday Night Mind Dump

Mind Dump — Gary on March 23, 2008 at 4:22 pm
  • Where do I start?
  • This has been THE craziest weekend of my life.  I mean THE craziest.
  • Our Good Friday services were very cool.  I love the small space at the warehouse and it was cool to peel back all the glitz and glamor and just do a chilled thing.
  • In case you didn’t know it, we did a small Easter Egg Drop yesterday. :)
  • The police estimate around 12,000 people showed up to the egg drop and another 5,000 people didn’t make it in.  Yes, you read those numbers right.
  • It was insane, I literally mean insane.
  • YES, we’ll probably do it again……IF someone will let us.  Except next year we are dropping 250,000 eggs!!!!!!
  • I need to give it another day or two, but I will post in detail everything that happened by Wednesday.  Trust me, it will be worth the wait.
  • Today was one of the most incredible days in the history of our church!  Around 1400 in attendance and around 20 people accepted Christ as their personal Savior!!!
  • The stage design was freaking incredible.  Honestly, it was the most over the top thing I have ever seen in a portable church.  I will have pictures soon.
  • The band was insane.
  • We had a ton of new moving lights today and there were awesome.  Mark Sheldon is doing an incredible job with those.
  • When I walked in today and saw a catwalk stretching out over the crowd I flipped out!  That was off the hook!
  • I am so proud of our staff.  They worked HARD last week, the last few weeks and it showed this weekend.  If you are part of Revolution, take some time this week to let them know how much you appreciate all they do.
  • I am shocked at how little stress there was in the office this week.  That wouldn’t have been the case in the past.  It is a nice change.
  • Revolution Volunteers.  What can I say?  You guys are amazing.  Honestly, you are amazing.  I have NEVER seen a group of people like you in my life.
  • I hear an UPrising starts new Sunday night!  Students, you don’t want to miss this night!
  • I slipped on my diet the last few days.  Back on it hard tomorrow.
  • This upcoming Sunday we have some things planned that could rival today.
  • It was so exciting having people introduce me to their ONE today.  Very cool.
  • I couldn’t stop laughing at all our guys in pastels today.  Very funny.
  • Preston became a big boy this week.  I have NEVER been more proud of him as I was this week!  He made things happen.
  • We had volunteers get to the theater at midnight after being at the egg drop ALL day and stay until after we tore down today.  I told you they were amazing.
  • If we maintain attendance anywhere close to today, we are going to have to figure out how to stagger services in other theaters to make room.
  • Why does the Easter Bunny bring things that make noise?  He should only be allowed to bring quiet things.
  • It is 5:30 and I will be in bed in less than 2 hours.
  • HE is alive!
