Sunday Mind Dump

mind dumpage

• The band was UH-MAZE-ING today. WOW!
• Cole did a great job with the sermon today. I love sermons about the Great Commandment because they are so easy to memorize. If you didn’t catch the purpose of today it was this: LOVE GOD, LOVE OTHERS. It really is that easy…
• We were down from last Sunday by 145 people. Ouch. Daylight Saving Time plus the fact that it is Spring Break equals el sucko.
• I’m all pumped up about our series that we’ll be starting on Easter Sunday. It’s called GOOGLE. And, it will be THE BEST series we’ve ever done!
• Had lunch with the band today. I love those guys. I really enjoyed my conversation with Emily Hildebrand, our lead guitarist, Jacob Hildebrand’s wife.  She’s a blast to chat with.
• Can you believe Easter is only two Sundays away? MAN that seems early…
• Cole made a very important point today: on Easter Sunday, we need YOU to go to the early, 9:00am service. It’s not just a little move, it is a strategic way for you to help us reach people for Jesus. You have two weeks notice. Come see us at 9:00am on Easter Sunday, March 23rd! And, bring a friend!
• Can’t wait to meet Terry Storch and Anne Jackson in the morning for breakfast! Oh, and Bobby Gruenewald. These people are all bloggers, pastors, church staff, innovators, etc that I look up to.
• As I type this mind dump, I am also on chat with Startlogic (our web host) tech support. My mortal enemies. I have logged a good 20 hours with these guys over the last month. What is the last straw, really? I should have dropped them foreverevereverever ago. Now I am in too deep…
• While we are on the topic of companies, Starbucks has become my new obsession.
• This is the coolest new innovation on the web that I am using. It is from one of my favorite companies, 37signals. You should try it.
• I can’t believe how many people are reading this blog. It is insane to me. Thank you. Keep checking it out and keep participating in the conversation…you are what makes this so worthwhile and so much fun!
• Going to be a long week with everyone out of the office…fun fun!
