So this could be the last edition of Saturday Night Shots for a while since tomorrow is my last official Sunday with TCC. Oh wait, I’m preaching in Schertz the following week…
- PUMPED about slowing down for a few tomorrow and spending some time with my family. Life is go go go go right now. Can’t say that I’ve honestly focused in a few weeks.
- PUMPED that I might even watch some baseball tomorrow. Yeah right…
- PUMPED that I get to hear Pastor Nic Burleson preach tomorrow. Seriously, this guy can bring it. God has given Nic the gift of preaching, no doubt.
- PUMPED about all God is doing in our lives right now. He has been loving and faithful to us in so many ways. I still don’t know many of the next steps but I do know that He is in control!
- PUMPED about a meeting with the owner of a possible meeting space for the new church on July 1st.
- PUMPED about my HORNS going to the National Championship. BOOOYAAAHHHH!
- NOT PUMPED that tomorrow is my last Sunday at TCC. It is going to absolutely stink to say goodbye to so many incredible people.
- NOT PUMPED that I will be away from Amber and Couper for almost three weeks starting July 8th. DANG that is going to STINK. No family. No church. No life.

Family, GOD with
Alright friends. First I asked you to join The Prayer Team.
Now, I’m asking you to help make this house sale. Here is what you can do:
- pray for our home to sell quickly
- share this with people you know who need a home
- share the story about us planting a new church and why we have to sell it – its a GOD THING!
- tell people about it
- hand out my phone number (512.262.8054)
- show off these pictures
- pray some more
Amber and I would really love to see a family in need get into this home. We’ve decided to sell it for exactly what we owe on it. So spread the word!

GOD, Life Change, Mi Vida Loca, The Connection Church with
- DANG it feels good to finally get to share the BIG news with you Connection Church! If you missed church today you can go HERE to watch the full service and see what all the hype was. Or, just stay tuned right here at the blog. I’ll post something specific to the announcement shortly.
- I can say honestly that Cole shared the absolute best vision message I have ever heard anywhere today. To be honest, it fired me up so much about TCC that I thought about walking out and retracting my announcement.
- Seriously, hold on to your rears because God is just getting started changing lives through TCC!
- I CANNOT believe that I didn’t cry on stage today. THAT alone was a move of God.
- I did shed some tears when we showed this baptism video though. That ALWAYS gets me.
- Something funny: I lost my notes five times this morning. That’s not me – I never lose things. Finally I gave in and took it as a sign that God wanted me to walk out with no notes. And right as I was about to walk out on stage to share, Bryan Geiger our ministry director came running to me with them in his hands. Thanks bro!
- Even though I had my notes, I still have NO IDEA what I said on stage today. It must have been ok because everyone was pumped up afterwards.
- Connectors, you were FIRED UP today!
- The memorial day video and prayer that we had today were POWERFUL.
- Someone told me that they got ripped off because we didn’t show a man-moment today. No worries…we’ll have one this week!
- Hung out with some of the SURGE (middle school ministry) today at our pool. Lot’s of questions about what God is doing in my life from close friends. Love the conversation.

- PUMPED that we have a long weekend. I’ll need a recovery day after tomorrow.
- NOT PUMPED that I am getting NO baseball since we no longer have cable. STINKS.
- WONDERING what God has in store for the next year!
