Exciting Opportunities Coming Up

Guys and Gals, I just wanted to let you know a couple cool things coming up for me. On Sunday morning September 24th we're having youth Sunday at Vanguard and the middle school pastor and I are teaching that day. I'm also leading worship. Services are at 10 and 11:30 Also, on October 7th I'm playing a coffee house at It's a Grind on Centennial with my friend Jeremy. Come hang out and get amped on coffee from 7-10. Random fact: I hate coffee. Booyah!

"Be noticed, Be rewarded, Belong"

I passed a billboard with this written on it the other day. At first glance I thought they really hit a seam of gold deep in the ground of the human heart. After thinking about it for a few minutes I concluded that the seam they hit is actually more exclusive to the heart of the American Dream. What is missing? ANY HINT OF SELFLESSNESS. We are all about being noticed, being rewarded, and belonging...but those things cannot sprout from selfishness. We cannot belong without giving something up...vulnerability, time, friendship, generosity... Think about it...
