Relaxing Weekend

Buckle your seatbelts. Hold on to your seats. Ready?

I had a relaxing weekend.

I don't get to say that very often :) In fact, Craig Groeschel and I were emailing about that foreign concept a week ago. By the way, if you think you're stressed out try pastoring a church with 36 weekend services like they have at lifechurch.tv. Imagine how relaxed Craig would be if they only had 35 services :)

Relaxing weekend is the ultimate oxymoron for pastors!

But I was the oxymoron this weekend.

Our pastor of discipleship, Heather Zempel, took The Office series across the finish line with Confessions of a Capitol Hill Staffer so I could gear up for our Chase The Lion series next weekend!

I think momentum and rhythm are the keys to ministry. And part of rhythm is an occasional relaxing weekend. Thoroughly enjoying it :)

Nice, I know what you mean man. Tomorrow's service will serve as my "tap out" for 2 weeks. I'll be out of town and my youth and children's pastors will be taking over for me. I'm looking forward to it! I for one had a very busy day today. It's hard to step on the platform after an exhausting day but I trust God will do the better part of the work in the morning anyway :)

Definitely looking forward to hear the Chase The Lion series.

Did you decide to go ahead with the t-shirts? Will they be available to those of us not in DC?

We should have them this week. I'll post more 411 on it :)
