This morning was a pretty good morning for us. Although we had some regulars out, we had a few families who were our guests. In addition, I started a new series simply called "Trick or Treat". I'm using Halloween as an opportunity to talk about outreach.
Today we talked about how we have the greatest treat to give away (the gospel of Christ). We also talked about how we have a habit of only giving away to others the stuff we don't want (kinda like when you were a kid and gave your sister the junky candy).
I started off the message with a quote from Erwin McMannus
"The church is not FOR us or ABOUT us...
We ARE The CHURCH and WE ARE HERE FOR THE WORLD!"
Ultimately we had 4 people accept Christ. I'm always pumped to see God move.

Very cool. I've missed your blogging.
Tally, praise God for how He continues to reach people through Focal Point. These decisions for Christ are what it's all about...
