Crazy Good Week!

This was the first week in about 5 weeks we had all of our staff in the office (minus Carol, our financial chick) and it was one of the most awesome weeks! GREAT reminder this week of why I love that God allows me to lead Revolution Church!

• Monday we had a ROCKING Lead Team meeting where God started stretching us like never before. If you think the last 3 years have been insane, you ain’t seen nothing yet! We are putting ourselves in position to literally change the way church is done in the North Georgia Mountain Region.
• We are about to get very strategic about WHAT we do around here. I’ll admit we’ve never been a real strategic church. We’ve flown by the seat of our pants and God has done awesome things, but imagine what He could do if we actually get strategic???
• Pumped about Michael starting on Monday. I honestly think what we are about to do for students in Cherokee County is going to explode! There is such a HUGE, I mean HUGE need in this area for a rocking student ministry that it is crazy!
• Can you believe we started construction on a second campus and that the campus is going to be permanent?  It still amazes me what God is putting us in position to do in Holly Springs. There is such a huge need for a church that is focused on the unchurched in that area and I truly expect that campus to blow up overnight?
• Tim and Swift laid down vocals last night on the first two songs from our first worship CD. All original music and I am pumped about it. I had a certain vision about Revolution’s music before we ever had our first service and God is starting to put the pieces together to make that vision a reality.
• God began the turning in my soul this week about a Jasper campus. We’ve looked everywhere BUT the desire and burden I have for that area has NOT went away. As soon as the Holly Springs campus gets launched, we are going to hit Jasper again HARD!
• Had a great talk with Tony Morgan this week! We’re looking at bringing him in to help us get to the next level later this year.
• Had a conversation last week with a dude in our church who is praying about starting a church inside the perimeter. Honestly, I didn’t think much about it at first but I can’t get our conversation out of my head.  If God is leading, I can’t wait to partner with what would be our 2nd church plant since we’ve started.
• Tim started a coaching network today for Executive Pastors. Love the initiative he is taking to be the best executive pastor he can be.
• We’ve been financially supporting Haiti Cheri since about a year in, but this December we start taking that to whole different level! Stay tuned for the 411 on this.
• Tomorrow I am spending the entire day with the family! Yeah…come on!
