Thanksgiving weekend and Sunday @ RC3

Megan and I have been having a great time seeing our families this weekend. Its the first time we've been back home since moving to Ohio in August. So its been great catching up, eating a ton of food, watching football, playing games...good times for sure. Gosh I've eaten way too much food. Definitely need to hit up the gym sometime soon.

Today was the first Sunday I've had off at Rivers Crossing since I've been there. It was great to have the day off, but I definitely missed being there. I heard that it was an incredible day there, which is awesome. My team is incredible too. Im very lucky to get to play with not only great musicians but great people. I had my good friend Mike lead today, and I cant wait to meet with him to hear how the Lord moved and used the songs today.

So...tomorrow we head back up to Ohio. I hear there is snow that awaits us. Maybe.

Good ish right here

My good friend Philip shared this video with me of the Senior Adult Choir from his church in Columbia, SC. Funny stuff for sure.

Setlists and Snow.

It is no secret, I love Mondays. I dont know why, but I always have. I love my job too, and on Sunday afternoons I look forward to the following Sunday, b/c I love what I get to do. Its so great to be a part of Rivers Crossing. We got to celebrate with Baptism yesterday and it was crazy. It was a party. As it should be.

This morning I woke up...went downstairs for a bowl of Trix and noticed it was snowing outsdie. Amazing. In fact, as I sit here at 3pm, it is still snowing. It isnt cold enough to "stick" or anything...but its still great to look at.

This week is going to prove to be a super busy week. My schedule is completely slammed. But I get to go back to SC for a couple of days to handle some business, and stay with the family...so that should be fun.

Setlist from 11/16 @ RC3
Walk this World - Charlie Hall
Everlasting God - Brenton Brown
How He Loves (w/ Baptisms) - John Mark Mcmillan
Lead me to the Cross - Brooke Fraser

Set List 11/9

Another wonderful day yesterday at Rivers Crossing. The past couple weeks we've been having the power cut off on us during the second or third song. We'll be right in the middle of a song, then all of the sudden we have no sound, no projector, etc...This creates an awkward moment for sure. One of the beauties of meeting in a High School that probably wasnt built to hold all we put into it. I dunno. We think we finally figured out the cause. Thank goodness.

Anyways, here were the songs we played throughout the service from yesterday:
Walk the World - Charlie Hall
Time has Come - United
Tell the World - United
Mighty to Save - United
Give Me Your Eyes - Brandon Heath
God of this City - Tomlin Version

This is some funny ish

Stephen Cope, this is for you!

Reminds me of the good ol' college days. Stephen used to yell at us when lifting weights, and it sounded very similar to this....

FYI

Whoever you are...please stop putting Obama flyers at my doorstep.

It does nothing to persuade me at all. The same goes for any political flyers, not just Obama (He's just the only one we've gotten a ton of recently).

Get a life.

A big thanks to Starbucks for making voting fun tomorrow. Free Coffee!!!!!!

set lists and apologies

For the 10 people that follow my blog, I apologize for sucking at writing posts. Life has been crazy, although I guess that should make for some good blogging, but I guess it hasnt. I do feel as though I have a good bit to write about, its just a matter of processing it.

Here is our Set List from Nov. 2:
You Lifted Me Out - tomlin
Sing, Sing, Sing - tomlin
Marvelous Light - hall
Taste and See - brian and jenn johnson
How He Loves - john mark mcmillan

Last night we had an event called Leadership Community. This event is for our volunteers and its just a time of worship and celebration and vision. What a great night. We have some incredible volunteers here and it was great to here Paul talk about Vision. Im looking forward to doing this event again in December.

I love Mondays.

Megan and I went on a breakfast date this morning to the classic Breakfast Club. Incredible Breakfast. We then journeyed onto Wal Mart. While waiting on Megan to get something I took a big whiff of a familiar smell. The smell of .....Christmas. I turned to notice an end cap of Cinnamon Scented Pine Cones. Man it smelled so good. I just had to get them, even if its only October.

The picture says the rest.
