On Sunday, it was so exciting to hear from one of our "GO-ers," Reggie Stutzman, as he gave a report of his ministry in the Bronx.  As a result, our students, who will be serving with him this summer, are even more passionate to GO and share the hope of Christ to kids who live in such a "hopeless" world.  

Just a quick recap from my message Sunday, and a point that needs emphasis in these crazy days of PREVIEW:  "The seed of hope, which is the Christ in us, is most often grown in the 'ground' of desperation."  The outpouring (abundance) of His Holy Spirit is promised in these days, releasing the prophetic (message from God), visions and dreams to restore our hope.  Folks, this is why we can have joy, no matter the craziness.  So our way forward is us being confident in our Savior's love and His Message, which is filled with hope for the believer.  

We'll bring this series to a close this Sunday with an illustrated worship experience, The Marriage of the Lamb.  Please spread the word and invite everyone you know...after all, Jesus did!  It's going to be a terrific celebration that includes brunch after service...Oh yeah!
