Sunday review

Had a lot of fun celebrating Father's Day at Foothills Community Church yesterday.

** The band kicked things off with Simple Man. Yes, in the 11:15am service I saw some lighters held up after they finished!

** Had a little friendly competition with some men in each service. We did a push-up contest. They were competing for Home Depot gift cards.

** Since school let out the attendance in the 9:30am service is larger than the 11:15am service.

** Mother's Day is always a high attendance for us, but Father's day is a low attendance. What's up with that Dads?

** At the end of the service we asked all Dads that wanted to commit to becoming Real Men of God to stand up for prayer. It was a very powerful time.

** Most men want to lead their families well and finish strong, unfortunately many won't because they get detoured.

** Yes, It is true that I had a stand-off with a skunk.

** No, I will not do my Rocky Balboa impression again. Nor will I do my Adrienne impression either, so don't ask :-)

** In the 11:15am service I totally forgot the punchline to the Chuck Norris joke. For all that were wondering.... Chuck Norris doesn't lick his postage stamps, he just looks at them and they wet themselves!

** We had 15 more people give their lives to Jesus yesterday!! God is doing some ridiculous things at Foothills!

** Our giving is down for the summer, because people are taking their vacations, and attendance is sporadic. If you have not signed up for online giving, why not consider it? It will help you to give more consistently.

** Next Sunday we will be celebrating baptism. If you are a Christ-follower and have not been baptized, what are you waiting for?

** I have heard that our students are having a great time at Bigstuf camp in Pananma City, and best of all----no tar!

** In other news.... our middle school Pastor, Tim Wadsworth's picture was in the paper this weekend with a fish that he had caught. The caption mentioned that it was an 8lb. striper. Tim has the makings of a great fisherman, he already has the exaggeration part down pat. I was with him when he caught it. It was maybe 4lbs. on a good day. In fact I took a video of it. you can watch it here.
