My wife is 9 months pregnant. During the hottest summer of the last 50 years, or something like that. She hardly ever complains. But she is so uncomfortable. And restless. Of course, there’s an end in sight. God willing, in a few weeks Graham will be here, and the discomfort of pregnancy will begin to subside.

I’ve come to the conclusion that Elevation Church will be perpetually pregnant. There’s no end in sight. We’ll bring new life into the world (new campuses, new growth, new leaders), and then be 9 months pregnant again almost overnight.

So we’ll always be uncomfortable. We’ll always feel awkward, and a maybe little nauseous sometimes.
And we’re very very restless.
But we’ll always be full of new life. That’s just the way it is for a living, growing church.
That’s the way it’s supposed to be.

I’m so excited (predictably) about the Grand Opening of our new campus at Butler High School on September 23rd.

The addition of this campus less than 5 miles from our Providence High School campus is going to almost double our current capacity to reach people.
Who wouldn’t get excited about that? Who wouldn’t be willing to endure some labor pains for that?
Elevators, please remember, beginning September 23rd, we will no longer be holding worship experiences at Porter Ridge High School.
And hundreds of you who currently attend Central have already committed to make the move to the Butler campus to make room at Providence.
Thank you.
