Only if it's Powerful

Horizons has seen some pretty beautiful, miraculous things happen in the last couple of weeks, and when they happen, the house is PACKED!

Most recently we celebrated and prayed over 9 graduates who are a part of Horizons, and in the next service, we welcomed and baptized 27 young students into the next HUGE phase of their Christian lives.  There were no empty seats.  The Holy Spirit was buzzing.  In that moment, we all remembered what this whole church thing is about.  We remember how powerful, enlivening it is!

In a few short words, I can sum up the day as awesomely beautiful.  I loved it.  Most people there loved it too!

In fact, many people said excitedly during conversations:  "It is my wish that we would always have this kind of energy and crowd!"

I agree!

In fact, what we know is that people come--family, friends, those who aren't always available on Sundays, and others--because they either know or trust that something BIG and POWERFUL is going to happen that day.

People get so excited about it they make sure others will be there too.  Few want to miss these things.  We all want to catch the moments when God shows us and completely changes our lives.

BUT, here's what I say:  God shows up EVERY Sunday.  Prepared to do and actively does BIG and POWERFUL things in our lives.

We simply need to trust it, believe in it, and anticipate it.  Every Sunday can have that kind of energy and that size of crowd.  We simply need to show up and bring others along with hearts prepared to see it.


Here's YOUR invitation:  prepare to show up Sunday with an expectant, open, and excited heart.  And INVITE YOUR FRIENDS (and enemies too (although you may not want to sit right next to them))!  Tell them Jesus (not the pastor) is doing BIG things and that they should come and see!


See you Sunday!
