Almost 300 today in ASHLAND. WOW. Only God. I can’t believe I have a small part in this thing. It is indescribable what HE is doing out here in the STICKS. Truly. Thank you GOD!
A HUGE THANKS to the Ashland Staff: Bud, Kevin, Nicole, the Ashland Launch Team, New Hope Staff, and all who helped us out in ANY way. You are more than appreciated. You ALL poured it ALL out and laid it ALL on the line for our KING!
Better than the attendance…lives were truly touched today. They really were. More thoughts to come later.
So after a great launch, lunch with family and friends (and I don’t want to hear about the BENGALS game…talk to me when we have a fair fight and not an 8th string quarterback:) Then caught a flight to Charleston to speak at a breakout HERE. Looking forward to a time of devotions and decompression on the beach tomorrow early before the conference starts @ 1:00pm. (Just a few minutes away!!!) Need some alone time right now.
Way to go New Hope! Way to go GOD! You all came through today, and this is just the beginning. I love this place.
blessings and peace!
almost 300…wow! i can remember just two short yrs ago being part of the wooster launch. its incredible to know each and everyone of us got to play a small part in changing people’s lives for eternity! i think everyone should volunteer just even once to launch a church. the feeling is incredible! is it hard work? yes! but priceless! i remember my eyes being filled with tears of joy as the doors of the PAC at woo high school opened that first day… so ashland… i can just imagine how you felt yesterday as you opened those doors for the first time! only the beginning of an incredible journey to share the message!
