regular attender
I went to church with my family today. What a surreal experience :) It's only once a year that we get up, get ready, walk to church, and come home as a family! Today was it. It was fun being a "regular attender" today.
We're in our On Mission series and Michael McNamee spoke. Hilarious. He is a straight shooter. He told some amazing stories about what God is doing in Europe--healings and revival movements. Miraculous stuff. It was like Acts 29. A continuation of the crazy stuff God did in the first century--guys named Saul getting knocked off their horse, angelic jailbreaks, handkerchiefs that heal.
Sometimes we hear stuff like that and it's almost foreign to our experience and we have a choice. We can make our theology conform to our reality and dumb-down or water-down the gospel. Or we can make our reality to conform to our theology. I want my life to be Acts-like. I want my reality to conform to the theology I find in the Book of Acts.
We also prayed for our missions team to Columbia that flies out today. The Lord took me to Acts 13. We are continuing the tradition started by the church of Antioch 2,000 years ago. Pretty cool. We were worshipping and we laid hands on them and sent them out.
By the way, the missions video and passport that we handed out rocked too. What a creative team. It's awesome to step back and watch our team take over! Job well done!!!

I agree with you on desire to experience and live Book of Acts revival. This ought not be something that we experience weekly, but daily. Book of Acts revival is relevant to our generation.
