Sunday Night Reflections

A few thoughts from an amazing day...

• Second sermon in lost and found series reminded all of us we are all prodigals from time to time.
• I wonder what choices you will make this week.
• Whatever choices you make; Remember they are YOUR choices!
• Sometimes an old hymn like "Softly and Tenderly" can stir our emotions.
• I loved Charles Spurgeon's quote regarding God and the prodigal...The compassion of God is followed by swift movements. He is slow to anger, but He is quick to bless. God comes flying in the greatness of His compassion to help every poor soul that returns to Him.”
• I wonder what makes Sunday special for people?
• Our worship team was shorthanded today and they still did a great job!
• Congratulations to our student ministry; they completed their fundraising goal - I am thrilled with their hard work, now I am looking forward to hearing about the life change at CIY.
• I want to encourage the PBCC family to be a part of the prayer service Friday Night for our teens.
• VBS is over - I heard a lot of good things about the week.
• I am really excited out our new parenting series that begins next week at 9:00 in the chapel. I know the assault on the family is relentless today - this will be a great opportunity to get some good information and practical application to build a strong family.
• Grace is a wonderful thing.
• Men, if you have not read John Ortberg's "When the Game is over it all goes back in the box" be careful - it is challenging to say the least.
• I watched the Miami/FSU repeat of their 2009 game on Sun Sports Saturday afternoon; I really miss college football!
