Sunday Recap, 12.13.09
Launching New ChurchesAnother great day at OneLife is in the books. The second week of the "Do You Hear" series proved that this series might be our best one yet.
- Lots of returning guests that came last week for baptisms. Second time guests excite me!
- Part two of the series talked about Joseph.
- I believe he broke it off with Mary when he found out Mary was pregnant. Being a guy, I can read between the lines and only imagine that when it says "he had in mind to divorce her" that he wasn't kidding!
- But as we learned, when Joseph's plans failed he heard from God.
- Many times, God waits until our plans fail so he can speak to us.
- But the best thing Joseph did was obey when he did hear from God. And he went back to Mary and made things right...he married her!
- Lots of OneLifers are hearing from God during this series.
- One person heard from God for the first time and gave their life to Christ!
- Several others have been sending in stories about how they are hearing from God. Some awesome stuff is happening.
- Angel Tree gifts were due and it was UNBELIEVABLE to see OneLife's generosity at work!
- 36 foster kids will have an awesome Christmas because of the generous giving of OneLifers. There were bicycles, baby dolls, clothes, shoes, and tons more.
- Our Christmas Offering has also been great. So far nearly $3,000 has been given above and beyond our normal tithes.
- The entire offering at our Christmas Eve service will be given away! Can't wait to see how OneLife can impact our community and world.
- Invite someone to the last Sunday of "Do You Hear" and to the Christmas Eve Service! powellchristmas.com.
