BRACKETOLOGY UPDATE: So far I’m 3 for 4 in the Elite 8. Still at the top of the pool, and all of my final 4 are still in it. Dumb luck, man.

Had a great time last night at ECHO, the college ministry of  North Metro Church in Kennesaw. I’ve heard so many great things about that church, and this was the first time I’ve had the opportunity to be there. Clark and Salina Beasley graciously invited me to come and lead with them, and it was an incredible night. Rob did a great job communicating the truth behind the lies of sexual purity and intimacy, and it was a great time to just think about and celebrate the unending love of God.

It’s cool to see how everything God’s been teaching me lately is coming together in these moments of leading worship. In the midst of brokenness, I feel like God has given me something of value to bring. I’ve never wanted to just be the worship leader that does the 6 songs and talks between songs 2 and 3 to get people engaged. I think it’s really important that if you’re going to say something, make sure it’s something valuable. Not theologically eloquent or impressive, but something from the heart of God that needs to be injected into the evening. I’ve never really thought of myself as having something “valuable” to bring, but lately I can sense a message rising up in my heart about the never ending love of God, and what it means in our lives. I hope that continues to happen, everywhere I’m privileged to lead.

Thanks again, Clark & Salina, Evan, and Fish! You guys rock, and it’s great getting to hang out with you again. Now I’m off to Woodward Academy for a mid-morning FCA. Hopefully I won’t get as many blank stares as I did the last time I was there!
