SUNDAY WRAP UP (072411)

Fabulous day at Crossroads Sunday!  Biggest crowd in several weeks as we closed out our original series SUPER! Our second week in Cinema Three, people coming back from vacation, and I'm really sensing the momentum that accompanies the kind of rapid growth we've seen before heading into the Fall of the year.  Too exciting!!  Here's a few quick hits from Sunday:

• Atmosphere and energy in our new auditorium is off the charts!  It's like a brand new church.  Lots of fun!
• Working through technical issues.  We had 3 years to work out technical bugs in Cinema One, only a couple of weeks in Cinema 2.  There's a buzz in the sound system.  We all know there's a buzz.  Thank you for your comments on your Connection Cards about the buzz.  We're working on it.  Our electrician will be in this week to run clean power into the auditorium.  That'll fix it.  Had to do the same thing next door.
• Several people commented that it was louder than Cinema One.  I agree.  Gonna take a few services to get it all dialed in.  Thanks for your patience...and don't forget that we provide ear plugs where you get your Worship Guides.
• THANK YOU FOR BEING "DOWN IN FRONT"!  Can't tell you how much energy you bring to the room and to the message when you engage by getting closer to the action.  And you leave room in the back for first-timers or those who haven't decided yet.  THANK YOU SO MUCH for joining me and Nic DOWN IN FRONT!  You guys totally rock!
• Loved sharing the message 'SUPER-BOLD'!  If you didn't get a Worship Guide, get the notes and the Scriptures by clicking HERE.
• Speaking of totally rockin' out: How 'bout Caleb Bannin and the band doing 'Eye of the Tiger'?  That was AWESOME!!!  Worship rocked my face off.  Loved it all.  And Caleb got the room going with Survivor's big hit!
• Next time someone challenges you, or tries to run you down the road, or wants you to do things you know you shouldn't...what do you do?  You look them in the eye, raise your fist 80's rocker style, and you go, "Dunt...Dunt-Dunt-Dunt...Dunt-Dunt-Dunt...Dunt-Dunt-Duuuuuuuun!"  Be Bold!
• Gave away every last copy of 'Be Bold' on Sunday.  Yup!  Read it.  Use it.  Live it!  If you didn't get one, I'll get a link up to a downloadable PDF.  Let me know if you want it.

So excited for the next two weekends.  It's a brand new original series from Crossroads called 'DIRTY JOBS'.  Don't miss a week.  See you Sunday!
