How much can we do, how much do we trust God for ...

I am really excited about the upcoming weekend and the start of Hope Revealed. I am sure it is going to be a chaotic Sunday as we go back to 2 services and have something in both the Worship and Event center and everyone tries to find their place.

I continue to press into a question of faith. As we look to Hope's future, how much impact can we have on the Greater Eastern St. Paul Suburban and rural communities? How much impact will God have on this region? I often get stuck on what I think I can do but as I have been praying today, I have been challenged to think about what God wants to do Hope's part, and my peice. It is exciting and at the same time huge.

I am really looking forward to wrestling through this as a church and personally over the next 3 weeks. Just a reminder, this sunday - if you attend a Mini-Congregation or small group on Sunday morning, plan on being in the event center during that service and then in the worship center during your normal hour. If you serve on hour, attend the event center the other hour and listen to the podcast from the event center later in the week. If you usually just attend the worship center one hour - please come to the Worship center that hour and attend the event center during the other service.

It is going to be great! Looking forward to being a part of it with you already.

Labor Day

I have made it my labor day resolution to begin blogging regularly! I guess we will see how I do together.
