Holler at'cha boy!

So, are you getting excited about Easter at Eola? You should be! It is going to be a great time of serving those in need in central Florida and worshipping with all of your homies from Grace Fellowship. 

We really want to get as many people out there as possible, so I want to see YOU out here for our 8:00AM service. Maybe you are already planning on coming. If that is you how about SUPER-sizing your Easter and helping out by serving @GraceKids Easter Egg Spectacular? We need you (and your parents) to help out, by being monitors for the Easter Egg Spectacular from 9:00 AM to 11:00AM. 

Let me tell you, the smiles on the kids faces will be totally worth it! But, know this is a chance for us to put what we have been learning about Christ into action! So let me know if you are able to serve by emailing me or buzzing me on the celly. Okay! Good!

Who wants the ball???

If any of you know me. You know that I love football. I was born into a football family and lived in a football state, so from the time I could remember I always wanted to play. I played defense and my favorite thing to do was tackle people. I loved contact. 

I was listening to Perry Noble speak the other day at Unleash 09. We were there live, but we had to leave early and so I watched the rest of that last service online. In this message he talked about playing rugby in australia with some peeps from Hillsongs Church. He said that at first he didn't want to get the ball because people who get the ball get hit. Hit hard...

But after a while, he was bored... Then Perry decided he wanted the ball... I would like to take a second to challenge you. Are you bored? Has your walk with Christ lost it's verve, passion, drive, etc.? 

...When is the last time you carried the ball?

When is the last time you told God, "I want the ball!" I don't care if I get knocked down, hit, made fun of or stumble I want to carry the name of Christ to this world. When was the last time you asked God to do the extraordinary through you? I hope you will be encouraged and challenged to pick up the ball today. Get your head in the game and start serving Christ with all you got!!!

Psalm 124:2-5,8

"If the Lord had not been on our side when men attacked us, with their anger flared against us, they would have swallowed us alive; the flood would have engulfed us, the torrent would have swept over us, the raging waters would have swept us away... Our help is the name of the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth."
