Today, we had our membership class at the offices. It’s always good to help people take one of the biggest spiritual steps they can take by committing to our church family and becoming a part of God’s vision and purpose in our area and around the world. When it comes down to it, it’s all about connecting: with God, with each other, and with the people around us who need to know God. As many times as I’ve talked through this stuff, there’s really nothing that I love more than hearing the stories of the people who’re coming on board, sharing our story and just going over the foundational truths that God is using to see people’s lives changed. Next time you see the class of August 2007, let ’em know you’re glad they’re here!
