Sunday Night Reflections

A Few Thoughts from an Amazing Day...

• I had the unique privilege of preaching at 2 different churches this morning. The first one at 8:45., the second one at 10:45. Now I know how a circuit rider feels. 
• While it was two different churches, both share the common bond of the Holy Spirit. This is what makes the local church so unique, different styles, different people, but the common bond of Christ - Good stuff.
• Today's message - People of the second chance! Focused on the father in the parable of the prodigal son.
• 3 points; the Father who waits, the Father who restores and the Father who rejoices.
• Want to know why the message of the prodigal son resonates with so many people? Here is the truth, we are all prodigals at one time. 
• Is there someone you need to restore today? I would suggest you look to the Father in the parable of the prodigal son and emulate his actions!
• Special treat today for the first time in 30+ years of ministry I got to share lunch with my father on Father's Day - Priceless. 
• If you have not tried BONEFISH GRILLE - you need to try it out - BTW get the salmon with the mango salsa - so good!
• This is one of the  most important weeks in the history of FCC, if you are reading this blog tonight would you take a few minutes to pray for the future of FCC this week!
• Something to Chew on; Being a role model is the most powerful form of educating...too often fathers neglect it because they get so caught up in making a living they forget to make a life.” ~ John Wooden
