Finished up the Defining Moments series - Not an original idea - several others doing similar series so must be good stuff. I used Andy Stanley's definition of a defining moment to get started - When you discover a truth or rediscover a truth you've forgotten or intentionally set aside, in such a way that it changes your life and transforms you forever - that is a defining moment. I added the experience part -we are Wesleyan you know - When you experience the living God - when you have such an experience of Jesus Christ that it redirects your life, sets the course of your life in a new direction, elevates the trajectory of your life so that you find yourself more perfectly aligned with the plans, purposes and will of God and find yourself in a place of blessing and abundance and purpose. Bottom line - Defining Moments set the course of life where God is leading you.
I trust we left church today with a renewed sense that God is with us.
Now on to the next series. We are going to do TV Game Shows. The thought is that popular culture provides a window to Christian faith practices. Next week: Let's Make a Deal - have you ever tried to bargain with God? It is more than a game. We'll see where it takes us.
We had a great spirit at church today. Good crowd. Happy people. I do believe the Lord is alive and well among us.
It's been a good day. I hope you've had a good day too.
