The Deceivers

Even though the rain was still coming down in Greenwood, the worship was going up.  It was such a special time today as we studied 2 John and celebrated the release of our “Knowing Jesus – Live” CD and DVD.  The above picture was from soundcheck with my lil’ man Eli worshiping alongside me.  He doesn’t miss a beat or a lyric.  Rock solid.  I need to get him up there with me past soundcheck some time.

The time of worship was really special.  We did only music from “Knowing Jesus” and had a ton of singers, band members, choir members, kids’ choir, and teach can percussion ensemble.  It was a lil’ rowdy this morning.

Today, we worshiped to:

If you didn’t get a copy of the CD or DVD this morning, you can get each one for $15 or both for $25 at the North Side office throughout the week from 8-5.  I was encouraged by positive feedback from our people this morning who were very excited about these new resources.  I had a few people share with me that worship was exciting this morning that people actually came to the service twice!

Jeff’s sermon from 2 John was incredible.  He talked about how deceivers would come in to get our ears and hopefully draw our hearts away from Jesus.  These subtle deceptions are intended to draw us from following Christ in a simple and pure way.  His pastoral heart shone through as he shared his heart to see us all “make it” and not be caught by the deceivers.

Great stuff.  3 John next week!
