Today concludes Extreme Week. Every morning NCCers gathered at the Third Place for prayer at 6:15 AM. What an inspiration to walk into the office every morning and to see so many people seeking God. I could literally feel the spiritual energy when I walked into the room.
It challenged me as the pastor of this church to seek God with the same intensity. All week I thought about the verse from Hebrews 12:1, "Since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us."
The Extreme Team helped me run the race marked out for me this week.
