Super-excited

I wanted to post a few observations as to what is going on at Foothills Community Church recently.

I can't help but feel truly blessed to be a part of a church that is as incredible at FCC. We are in a time of great blessing from God. There is a wave of anticipation, expectation and hunger for the Lord on Sundays that is actually building every week.

I believe that part of this is stemming from our new series from the gospel of John. People seem genuinely fired-up about taking their spiritual lives to a deeper level. We have done series through other books of the Bible in the past, but never one that will allow us to spend as much time as necessary to truly dig in. I just have to say, I am loving it personally!

I also sense that as a body, our church doesn't want to just soak up scripture, but wants to take what we learn and live it out 24/7. Our Project Reach initiative giving and participation is going really well. Our Haiti mission trip in March is almost filled up!

Our Find and Follow groups are doing awesome. We have so many people getting connected through the groups.

We have definitely started 2013 off with a bang, but let's do whatever it takes to stay fired-up, and motivated. Let's also continue to invite our friends to church. This is a fantastic series to invite them to.

This Sunday's message is going to clarify for all of us what our mission is, as Christ-followers. I cannot wait.

I could go on and on, but the point is, these are some incredible days in the life of our church.

One last thing. If you missed the first 2 messages in the According to John series, here's the link to watch them.
