new-ness. newbie. new.



I am not sure I can remember a time in my life when this many things have happened at once. Well, there was the 94 Olympics, but that's another story. I have indeed digressed.

CF's new website is up and it's amazing. JR Lovins, former blogger and creative guy at CF does a great job with this stuff. You can find out how great it is here. Peruse the site...it's our guest site; if you would like more info on anything else, click the link for the family site or click this word.


We spent some time at CF DWNTWN last night doing some rebuilding.  We demo'd out the new student area...it's going to be so good. I'll post before and after pix, but it really is going to be good.  From one of the windows, you can see American Airlines Arena and Biscayne Bay.  If you are a local, it's room 302.  Check it out.  


Much love to the students who worked hard last night Downtown both in the Worship Center in the future revolution.  Seriously, I would take these students anywhere.  They can get stuff done.


So many people showed up and worked hard Downtown last night; thanks to each of you. I love being part of a church that gets it. "It" being the greater purpose. Getting sweaty, sometimes bloody (much love, Matt E), painting, laying tile, building stages, moving pews around and even sweeping out rooms can be done for the glory of Jesus Christ. It's this work that allows people to come and listen to the Gospel of Jesus and have their eternity changed.

Sweat is an investment. It's a beautiful thing. I really the admire the type of attitude to go all out for the sake of Christ. The creed from the Fellowship of Christian Athletes says, in part,

"My sweat is an offering to my Master. My soreness is a sacrifice to my Savior. I give my all - all of the time.
I do not give up. I do not give in. I do not give out. I am the Lord’s warrior -"

May your sweat at whatever you do today be a sacrifice!
