Making Love…Last. [sermon from Crosspoint]

In GET SERMONS HERE, Watch This on November 29, 2009 at 3:46 am

I had the amazing honor and privilege to preach at Crosspoint Church in Alabama [where they play some football too...] a few weeks ago. Crosspoint has been an amazing supporter of Mission West and for some reason liked me enough to invite me back!

Dave Anderson is doing something that I don’t know of anyone else doing…he is partnering with God to plant a church that meets in a movie theater as a bi-vocational pastor and blowing it up. From 275 to almost 600 people in the last year or so and they are set to do even greater things as God leads.

A HUGE shout out to my family in Bama land…and a big ROOOOLLLLL TIDE!!!!! Dave, Dana and the Crosspoint crew: LOVE YOU ALL BEYOND WORDS!

Here is the sermon I was blessed to give. And yes, I do say something about the male anatomy in this teaching. Be forewarned.

It’s Official…We Are INSANE.

In church planting journey on November 19, 2009 at 4:06 pm

JFK once said: “We choose to go to the moon…because it is hard!”

Can I re-direct and agree? “We choose to do the impossible…because we can’t do it on our own.”

Our team is praying about something SO INSANE that I can’t even write it here yet. [not to mention that we are talking with those in authority over us to get ~~buy-in~~ the assurance that they will not abandon us and send us away for counseling].

In the past 2 months, we have begun hearing something INSANE from God, and when GOD speaks, it must become a burning passion that we must be OBEDIENT, no matter what the outcome, the cost or the ridicule.

What is God doing right now that seems impossible in your life?

Pray for us. It’s going to be hard.

^“Jesus looked at them and said, ‘With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.’” [Matthew 19.26.niv]
