Sunday June 10, 2007 - The Power of Everybody...to do a Great Work

Coming off of In the Zone, I began a 4 week series of messages called The Power of Everybody, a look at what God can do through a group of people who are committed to working together for His sake. This series is based on the book of Nehemiah and the rebuilding of the walls of Jerusalem.

This first week we had a pile of rubble and a silver cup as our props, demonstrating the mess that Nehemiah and the people faced and the position he left to fix it. And it was a powerful word. I believe that God is calling The Journey to step forward into a better future - in several different areas. And as we will learn repeatedly in the coming weeks, "It's everybody time!"

Services were good today, specifically in the 2nd service where the altar call at the end had many leaving their rubble next to the pile of rubble at the altar. There was a release as we called out to God at the end of that service.

We introduced a new song For Your Glory that fits in with our mindset these days - the chorus goes: For Your glory, for Your kingdom, for Your Name Oh Lord, Here I am..." God, may the Journey be all about living for the glory of You and Your great Name!

Our attendance today was 147... :)
