Crazy

Welcome to my first blog post ever. I have no idea where this will go from here. I have no idea who will read this. I have no idea what I will write tomorrow or a week from now. But, it's time to make the jump and just do it. So here goes . . .

I told John and Dave they are crazy the other day. I know this is probably not the wisest thing in the world to do since I just returned to being on staff and leading the music team again at Meadow. My tenure may be short-lived, but - you have to understand - there will be a portable baptistry in the movie theatre next Sunday, Nov. 4th. That might not sound too crazy on the surface, but once you stop and consider the logistics of this endeavor - it is . . . well . . . crazy.

But, if you know John and Dave they kind of thrive living on the edge. They bid goodbye to their comfort zone a long time ago. My hat's off to them - it has to be, you see I don't sleep with my hat on. As they begin preparing the baptistry at about 4:00 a.m. next Sunday I'll still be sawing logs.

They've got the filling and emptying part of this all figured out and are sure we'll still be able to be done with tear down by 11:30. It is complete madness, but it is what makes ministry at Meadow so cool. It is going to be an awesome Sunday - it always is when you get to celebrate with so many people making a public statement of their faith in Jesus by being baptized. We have never done this during a Sunday morning service before - because of the logistics involved. But it is not holding us back any longer.

Congratulations to all those being baptized next Sunday. It is so awesome to see God moving in the lives of people at Meadow.
