Yep. That's a cat with a machine gun. You're eyes are not fooling you. Search Google Images for the word "crazy" and this little nugget of goodness is what pops up first. It's disturbing on many levels.
Anyway, this weekend/start to the week has been insane, but in a good way. God has been throwing things my way that I actually dreaded and in every situation- it ended up being an amazing thing. So cool.
I can't tell you enough how excited I am to lead Forefront. It's a place where people are real, they ask questions, want to serve, are wrestling with big challenges... and I savor every minute of it.
- I had a phone call Monday morning thinking a guy was going to never set foot in our church again, now he and I really have the beginnings of a friendship.
- Another guy was looking for a place to serve and I wasn't sure where that would be... but the meeting couldn't have gone better- he's gonna do great.
- Met with Mike DeSelm on Sunday to go over computer stuff as he heads soon to PA with Richie to start the new church. I'm really excited for him.
- Had a guy in my discipleship group on Saturday wonder whether or not God is calling him to make BIG sacrifices and move to a lower income neighborhood to share Jesus. Awesome!
- Sent away our design work for the advertising at the Chesapeake Campus. It's going to look really good. Check it out soon at Greenbrier Mall in Chesapeake near Cinema Cafe.
- Speaking of Cinema Cafe, our first service went great and there were a bunch of new people with some old faces we hadn't seen in awhile. To all my Chesapeake Peeps, you guys are amazing. Keep it up!
- Sunday's message at the Beach Campus was really great and tough all at the same time. God prompted me to give my car to someone in need. Bones was in need, so now he has a way to get to Vegas. People after service came up to me and gave over $1,200 for Him to get there to do ministry. You guys are truly the hands of Jesus in the community.
- I'm now driving a borrowed soccer mom mini van (I know the jokes are coming, bring it!)
- Bummed the Cardinals couldn't pull it together in the last moments, but it was a GREAT game.
- Had our Gel Group over for the game and ate enough food for a small country.
- Finishing up the final 4-5 posts in the series I've been doing on the blog.
- They start tomorrow morning. Don't miss it.
- Love ya guys (and gals)

Seriously, though, our church did something similar a few months ago, which is very cool, especially right now when everyone is tempted to focus on their own financial issues.
