• Wednesday night was the first night of Thrive since school started back.
  • We had a record crowd for a nonevent service.
  • Our van route has grown so much that we have to split it now.
  • We stripped our stage and platform for this month. No set design or stage props because we want the focus on other things.
  • The band gelled so well together. It will only get better as the school year rocks on.
  • Preached in Thrive for the first time in four weeks. Man I missed it.
  • Loved watching the passion of these students as they pressed in to get closer to God.
Some things we talked about:
This month we are talking about three of David's Mighty Men from 2 Samuel 23. This week we talked about Shammah and the stand that he took in his lintel field.

Here are some things we know about his life:

He had convictions - no one stands and fights when everyone else is running without them.

He made a choice - sometimes our indecision is our decision. Shammah was faced with the same choices you and I have today. To stand and fight or run?

He had courage - courage is not the absence of fear it is the absence of fear's control.

Upcoming events:
Sunday August 16 we will have a cookout and water wars. Meet at the church at 5:30 p.m. and bring $5. Wear a dark shirt and shorts, please no bathing suits.
