It’s official. Sexy is back, and better than ever, at Elevation Church.

A record turn out today… 1484 people.
All indications are that relationships, dating and sex are the topics that draw the largest crowds to church in our culture.

2 thoughts on that:

1. God made us relational in the core of our beings. When the church speaks into that sector of the human soul, people show up to listen. Not because they’re sex crazy or relational losers. But because their hearts have questions and they crave divine answers.

2. God has blessed Elevation with Christ centered momentum coming out of our anniversary extravaganza. He’s going to keep blessing. Our job is to not screw it up. And to ride the wave with reckless passion for His glory.

I’d also like to say that the band grooved on Lennon and McCartney via Stevie mighty good.

And for all of you who weren’t in the house today, check out the shirt Elijah wore.

We’re excited.
That was the surprise.

We’ve got the foundation laid for an eye opening, life changing series.
NEXT week we’ll raise the stakes and get super practical.

Oh yeah, North Greenville University, I owe you a shout out.
Thanks for letting me bring it on Thursday night.
I know I came out swinging, but you needed it. It’s good for ya. Stay grateful, stay teachable. Reject arrogance. Pursue transformation.

Tomorrow we celebrate the birth of a man who’s very special to me.
Me.
Happy birthday to me.
Checks and Master Card accepted.

I’m out for now.
Hot dogs are boiling and we’ve got Lost on the DVR.
Plus Elijah looks like he needs to be body slammed by Daddy.
Gotta go…
