Really Great, that’s how great it is.

This weekend was incredible.  We had an amazing Good Friday service at the Creekside campus.  The Auditorium right now is just a giant concrete cavern, and we had stripped down worship, and Communion and Corporate Scripture reading.  This was our first ever Good Friday service and we had 100 people turn out.  It was incredible.

Then we had an Easter Egg hunt in Mount Lake Terrace, and that had a really great turn out, and it was loads of fun.

And yesterday, we had a great Easter Morning service.  it felt like a packed house, I don’t know the exact number yet, but it was full.  There was some great energy in the room, everything just seemed to gel yesterday.  It was great.

And the reason we do all this is because Jesus Christ didn’t stay dead, he conquered sin and death, and he lives today.  Incredible Weekend.  Thanks to everyone who made it happen.

Today is Good Friday, this is the day that Christians remember the incredible price and pain that God the Son paid for the sins of all of humanity.

Tonight Creekside is going to be doing our first ever Good Friday Service.  It’s going be really really great.

We are going to be Worshiping Jesus, Celebrating Communion, Doing some corporate scripture reading.  But the most meaningful thing that we are going to be doing is writing down the names of friends and family that we are praying to receive Christ, and sticking those names on the wall.  It’s going to be an incredibly meaningful service and I am really looking forward to it.

Here’s the Article

A few years ago I went to a Guys Only event and Mike Foster the other found of XXXchurch.com was the guest speaker.  These guys are passionate about sharing the love of Jesus with people struggling with porn and those in the porn industry.  They have been getting a lot of press lately, and they have been doing some incredible things.  Check out their website to read more about the story of XXXchurch.com, and see if they can help you or someone you care about.

This is an interesting article on the effectiveness or un-effectiveness of powerpoint.

Learning styles are important to understand and I wonder what would happen if we didn’t use PowerPoint as slavishly as we do.  Some times if feel like we make our selves slaves to the program instead of making the program serve us.  Just a random little thought.  I personally like the use of PowerPoint if it’s simple and subtle.  I think it can be a great help to understand.

Something to think about.
