Keep Pointing in Waterloo

Jumping In

Today I watched a guy jump three stories into a foot of water and walk 
away clean. He took a huge life changing leap of faith and now holds a 
new world record.

I think that is pretty cool, but all I could think about was, "Would I 
take that kind of risk, not to set a world record, but to change the 
world?"

Am I willing to jump in if God calls? I hope my obedience would be 
quick, but I know that will not be proved until He asks me to that 
next step. We are launching a church in just a few months and I am 
sure that there will be plenty of opportunity to Jump In! Be praying, 
get ready, He is going to ask us all to get a little risky and take 
new steps with Him!

I am so humbled to be called to Waterloo. I thank God every day for 
your committment to follow Him into uncharted waters. Praise God for 
His hope to all the cities of the earth!

Catalyst Session 3

My version of Shane Hipps, Session 3:

The medium of image moves past the left brains logic and arguement to
the right brain experience so that no debate is needed.

Apparently Jesus has something to say about the need for a new message
incased in a new medium.

Mark 2:22

I am ready for God to take it deeper in Waterloo!

Catalyst Session 1

Session One Insight:

Every leader leaves a mark.  It just depends on whose it is; mine or God's. 

Worship with 12000, awesome!

Big Week for the Waterloo Crew

This week is a big week for the Waterloo crew. We are team-building 
while traveling to Atlanta, GA for the Catalyst leadership conference. 
I hope to post several times in the next few days about what we are 
experiencing and learning. 

Today we learned that taking steps toward God starts with a 
relationship. This is my new friend Sherri.  We connected over breakfast this morning over at the Waffle House.  She helped me to understand a little of her culture and I helped her to understand a little bit of mine.
