SERIES: Attached, Strings
TALK: For someone that claims to be all about God and not of this world I realized like never before how attached I am to so many worldly things. Yesterday we started a new series on attachment and taking a close look at the things we are attached to and then next week we'll talk about detaching. Throughout the entire time of preparing and discussing what we are attached to I found so many of us are attached to so many stupid things. We talked about how dumb it was for my at the time one year old son to be so attached to a wooden spoon and how dumb we look when we are so attached to the same pointless matters. The only that should captivate our hearts is Christ but too often I get wooed by the wooden spoons are our culture.
STUDENT RESPONSE: ABOVE AVERAGE, we asked everyone to write down 5 things they were attached to so they can confess that to God. I was overwhelmed by the amount of students that had run out of space by the things they are attached to.
LEADERSHIP: BELOW AVERAGE, We had a couple of leaders sick, a couple that are m.i.a, but the core group are doing a great stepping up and leading teenagers.
WORSHIP: ABOVE AVERAGE, Al tough Tom got sick just before the service, which meant we couldn't do musical worship, the night still felt like a great time of worship and connecting with God.
ATTENDANCE: AVERAGE
