Can't believe I haven't blogged since December! We've got some catching up to do -
Finally saw "Facing The Giants". Very, very good movie. Five star. Right now I'm reading several books - "Prayer" by Philip Yancey and "The Last Sin Eater" by Francine Rivers. Both are excellent reads so far. In fact, "Sin Eater" is a new movie which begins tomorrow. I'm seeing it with a friend who recommended the book to me. Looking forward to that.
Was at a Pastor's Prayer Summit last week in Park City. Instead of teaching on prayer, each three hour session was time of guided prayer. The highlight for me was a foot washing time. I had never been a part of one in my whole life. A very moving experience. And way, way out of my comfort zone!
We are now taking resumes during the month of February for an associate minister. If you know of a good man who would love an opportunity to work outside the Bible belt - have them send a resume to: southsidesearch@gmail.com
We break ground on our new facility in a few weeks! An exciting, yet scary time. One of the neat things that God is doing in this process is the that Kent Turpin, the minister at Valley Christian Church (the church that is buying our current building), was baptized at Southside about 20 years ago! Now, that's a God thing! Kent is excited to be coming home as he puts it.
Going to a prescreening of "Amazing Grace" Monday night. Amazing Grace is a new movie about the story of the writing of the great hymn. Should be inspiring.
Turned 49 on Tuesday. Where has the time gone?
