Amazing!

Last night was absolutely amazing. It was great to be back with everyone and to meet so many new people. I absolutely believe you guys will play a key role in reinventing what church is all about...not just youth ministry but the whole entire Christian Church! Mike is a gift from God as our Youth Pastor. His love for everyone just blasts out of him. That makes "Summer of Love" the perfect theme for our very first series of discussions. The Sweet Spot won't be able to contain us much longer and I have a feeling we're going to just keep outgrowing buildings! That makes sense. Since God can't be contained in any building it figures his people will keep busting out of them!!! Comment here to share what you thought of last night, what we could do better, what we should keep doing and how we can spread the love to even more people this summer.

Missing You All

Hey there Sweet Spotters! I'm dying to know how things are going with our youth ministry. Summer is here and the possibilities are endless. I hope Mike is keeping all of you interested and excited! And I hope you're all keeping Mike on his toes. Can't wait to get back and find out all the great things that are happening. In the meantime, please share what's been happening by replying to this post. Also, if you're interested, share what's happening in your own personal walk with Jesus. It helps all of us when we share our stories.

As for me, I've been spending the last two weeks with over 100 college students training and preparing them to lead mission trips all over the U.S., Canada, Puerto Rico, Belize and Peru! It's exciting to see what God's doing through the energy, excitement and enthusiasm of people not very much older than the awesome leaders we have in our Sweet Spot group. You all have the power to change the world and I'm never more excited personally than when I'm spending time equipping you to follow God's call on your lives and encouraging you to lead the way God wants you to. Never, ever doubt the difference you can make in this world.
