Sunday Night Thoughts (Monday Edition)

- Sunday was amazing! I talk another very un-Christmas message and we had a packed house.
- I almost called the message, "Satan, the Anti-Christ and You!", but thought that might be over the top :)
- We usually flatline attendance wise for December, but we're seeing a nice upward trend
- Teaching on Hanukkah in part of my message was a lot of fun. I love telling that story.
- Tons of first time guests today. Our Ten Minute Party was slammed! We ran out of gifts for people and had to scramble to get more together!
- This Sunday our service times are changing! We're going to 9:30AM and 10:45AM. I think this will be much better and even out the attendance and both services.
- We're doing a Christmas offering this year and raising money for missions all over the world. I'm amazing by the generosity of our church! I'm honored to be the Pastor here!
- I had a great time teaching at a friend's church on Sunday night.
- I never get tired of teaching on John the Baptist. If all Baptists were like him, I'd become one :)
- My fantasy team collapsed this week. Tom Brady let me down with a 3 point performance. I made the playoffs. I was up by 20 points after last week and then the collapse. Depressing!
- I'm working on my personal goals for next year (more on that later). Everyone should seek God and see where He wants them to focus in the upcoming year personally, spiritually, financially, etc...
- I'm looking forward to our Christmas celebration this weekend. I can't wait to see what God does!

Bob, I thought there was no way I could come back to beat you in football this week, but Moss and Brady had their worst weeks of the season. Another reason why fantasy football is like playing the lottery: it's all about luck.

Normally I'd feel bad for you, but I think there's some irony at work here. The reality is, you lost because of bad weather [Braylon Edwards wasn't going to catch anything in that snowstorm, and the wind at Foxboro was insane]. So while you enjoyed your nice, comfrotable Miami December climate yesterday, and I had my freakin' sub-freezing Midwest snow day, at least I got a little something to keep me warm.

Take care, man.
