4th of July

Looks like we are all set for Church In The Park this Sunday, July 4th. We spent more time this week preparing all the sound equipment and prepping for the food. It's going to be an awesome day as we worship outside the awesome God who created it all. I love that at Life Church Franklin we can try and do things that others might not be willing or able to do. That's what is so much fun about serving and leading at LCF.
I look forward to seeing you there. Be sure to bring your blankets and chairs and dress for the warm weather.

Sunday night reflections

Today was a great day at Life Church. We had a powerful word from Pastor Steven Furtick from Elevation Church in Charlotte, NC. Steven spoke about the Unstoppable Power that we all should be walking in as followers of Christ. Wow, was a great message!

The part that really hit me was the thought that we need more of something to really be an impact for God and his causes. That thought that we need to wait to have more money, abilities, talents, etc... is a just a lie. God has given us each a measure of each thing and it's our responsibility to use them to bring him glory and fame to his name.

So, this week I want to encourage you walk in that unstoppable power inside of you that lives in the power of your savior Jesus Christ. Use what he has given you and be his light in this world.

You are unstoppable!

You Are Unstoppable

Over the past 3 weeks we have been exploring the One Prayer series with the theme of "Unstoppable". Each week the guest teaching pastor has chosen a specific topic along with Unstoppable....Unstoppable Hope, Unstoppable Courage, etc...
This has been such an amazing powerful series. Today I've thinking specifically about Life Church Franklin and wondering, are we unstoppable? Do we believe that we are unstoppable?
Today I want to encourage you that is you have received and believe that Christ is in you and your savior, than you are unstoppable. The same power that raised Jesus from the grave is alive in you as a follower of Christ. Death couldn't stop Jesus and death can't stop you either. We are alive in Christ. By your faith in Christ you are unstoppable! As we live by God's spirit we are unstoppable!
Live in your unstoppable life today and all that God is wanting and able to do in, through and around you!

Why Do We Volunteer?

Every Sunday at Life Church well over 40 volunteers help setup, play music, run lights, teach kids, direct traffic, greet people, etc... It's because of these dedicated volunteers that Life Church is able to happen week in and week out. Myself, the staff and volunteer staff definitely can't do it all by ourselves. I am so incredibly thankful for these volunteers. They are a part of all that God is doing at LCF. They are a direct part of the life change happening week in and week out.

So why is it that we volunteer or ask people just like you to serve? There are lots of good reason. Obviously being a portable church we need help getting things setup and torn down, but there is a bigger reason. Life Church is a part of God's Church. The Capital "C" church. That is you! You are the Church. The Church is not a building. It's God's people living, breathing and serving each other and the world. So, we want you to be a part of what God is doing. You are needed and you can be a piece in the process of leading people to become fully devoted followers of Christ. Whether it's parking cars, cleaning up or leading in LifeKIDS you are important and needed.

That's why we volunteer! Not volunteering yet? Find out how right here.

To God be the glory,
Patrick
