• We kicked off our Summer Series last night with a bang.
  • I was a little worried about attendance with this being the last week of school but attendance was up.
  • The summer set looks amazing.  Big thank you's to Katie, Sharon, Patric, and Stephanie for helping put it together.
  • The band sounds awesome last night.  Those guys are really gelling together and I love having Alex on the violin up there.
  • I felt like last night a lot of our students went deeper and made commitments to climb the mountain this summer and get a good tan.
  • We finished May with our highest monthly average for a month that we did not have an event in.
Some things we talked about:
We covered tanning 101 last night as we read the story of Moses in Exodus 34.  As Moses would spend time with God his face would glow.  We paralleled a good "tan" to our relationship with God.
A good tan takes work - Anyone can have a farmers tan.
A good tan cost you something - It will cost you time and energy.
People can spot a fake tan - fake tans look stupid
We have too many tanning bed Christians - they want instant results without paying the price.
We have too many spray on Christians - they're relationship is just on the surface and they are just covering their lack.

There is no substitute for the real thing
