Had a great Sunday today. I didn't set up the chairs like I usually do. I didn't run to the front door when I didn't see a greeter there. I didn't set the stage up when I noticed that it wasn't put back since the candlelight service on Christmas eve. I didn't run and get the plates for the contribution when I noticed they hadn't been put out.
I just tried to worry about preaching and people. That's my new year's resolution - on Sunday, let the servants do their thing - or it will be left undone. I've got to be honest - it was hard for me because I like things to be "right". If we are going to grow as a church - I've got to let that stuff be done by other people. You know what? It was! (Okay - a few things were not done. But I held strong!)
Lately I just made a list of all the things I do that have nothing to do with "preaching". Holy cow. The longer I'm here (13 years) - that list seems to just get longer. NO MORE!
I still locked up the building. I can't go cold turkey can I?

Randy, I saw your comment on Mike's blog and just wanted to ask you if you think you will be at Pepperdine this year for the Lectures. If so, please come to our Harding Reception.....I would love to hook up with you again, brother!
Great post too, by the way! :)
