Creative Scribble

Happy New Year!!! Over the past week, everybody has been doing their top 10 lists for the past year and even the past decade. I thought I’d look ahead instead of behind. So here’s my top 10 for 2010 at OneLife.

10. I will lose weight, getting back to pre-marriage shape so I can wear skinny jeans like the OneLife Band.
9. We will start a second service, expanding our reach to more people and more families who don’t go to church already.
8. Our volunteer teams will continue doing an incredible job creating a place on Sundays that people wake up and look forward to coming to. As a result, we’ll have more and more volunteers plugging in.
7. The high school girls will quit turning the stalls in the girls’ bathroom into an X-rated comic strip and graffiti display so we can stop painting (and repainting…) the stalls every Sunday!
6. After our next baptism service, I will return the baptistery without the lid flying off and landing in the middle of I-40.
5. Our staff will get to start being full-time so we can focus on what God has called us to give our lives to.
4. Our staff will grow as God raises up volunteers who want to commit to giving their lives to children’s ministry, administrative ministry, and more.
3. OneLife will start making a difference on a global level, getting involved in world-wide missions – spreading the Gospel to the world – and world-wide social justice – doing our part to stop sex-trafficking, hunger, AIDS, and more.
2. Small Groups will begin, giving OneLifers a chance to go even deeper in their love, discipleship, and accountability of each other.
1. Hundreds of people in Powell and beyond who may know about Jesus will finally KNOW Jesus as we rock this community for Him!
