I’m addicted to something new: Time Lapse. Its fascinating. Sometime, I’m going to sleep on the couch with the lights on and time lapse myself…just to see what I do when I sleep. So, this post is basically a product of me getting a new MacBook coupled with too much caffine and some time lapse video software.
This Sunday will be my first time to preach at The PAC and I am PUMPED. Since I don’t get three services anymore to preach, I’m preaching through it several times in the garage before Sunday. I really should have been doing this since day one. It helps a TON. I just wish I could get 5 people or so together to listen to me preach it 4 or 5 times and help me make it even better.
Couper is already a ladies’ man. He took flowers to his best friend, Aubrey today because she had a tough week full of hospital stays, doctors appointments, medicine, and all kinds of fun tests. Check it:
If I could only ever go to one conference for the rest of my life, it would be Catalyst. The Catalyst guys are absolute geniuses. Check out this marketing:
They sent me this SUPER COOL conference promo pack. It was full of fun stuff, snazzy brochures, conference info, and more. Catalyst even printed a picture of Cole on the outside of the super cool triangular box.
Oh yeah…Inside was this little magnet.
A free pizza for my team? REALLY? I called our Catalyst concierge. Yes, we have our own conference concierge. Within 45 minutes, my team was enjoying this, for free, on Catalyst, just because they love us.
If you’ve never been to Catalyst, go as soon as you can. This is the best leadership conference there is. You’ll have a blast and sharpen your leadership skills and the vision you have for your church.
Cole in a suit. Don’t miss it…You’ll see why. Oh, and I’ll be preaching week one of ELEVATE, which is going to ROCK OUR LIVES. God has some BIG stuff coming up for us Connectors…
A thought. It made me sick at my stomach today to think that 10,000 plus people died in an Earthquake in China today and many of us here in America won’t even hear about it. I seriously feel ill. Pray with me for these families.
Last week there was Cyclone Nargis in Burma. The U.N. estimates that the death toll from this cyclone is 63,000 to 100,000. Can you imagine that? The disaster in Burma has presented the world with its most terrible humanitarian crisis since the 2004 Asian tsunami. The poor state of Burma’s infrastructure has made it tough for aid workers to deliver relief to the victims. With as many as 1 million people still at risk, it is possible that the death toll will approach that of the entire number of civilians killed in the genocide in Darfur within the next few days.
So what is the world doing about it? Not much. I won’t be sleeping much tonight.
Pray some more. There are tons of people hurting right now..
