Youth Pastor Needed

Working in youth ministry for years has given me a whole new appreciation for this video. I’m praying for the day that we have an awesome Youth Ministry @ SouthView. Until then….enjoy the video.

Worship Night.

worship-nightLast night was amazing. Kelli took this photo during practice on her phone, how cool?

God showed up and once again took us on a journey. I’m convinced now that God always shows up when we invite Him (and sometimes He blows our minds). Here’s some thoughts on the night…

1-Never sure who to expect on nights like these. We were lighter than the last time but it didn’t matter. God still rocked the place. Seems like that “two or more are gathered…” scripture is true :)

2-I see that God doesn’t show up the same way twice. Last night was totally different than the last worship night. Different feel and message. I notice our prayer nights are like that as well. God is so diverse and has so many sides to Him. I love that about Him. You never know what you are going to get. That’s the mysterious part.

3-People are crying out for LOVE. That was the theme I felt last night. People will find all their fulfillment in His Love. It’s got it all!

4-The band and singers sounded amazing last night. How can a little church/ministry be so blessed? Seriously. Anointed and talented….wow.

5-I continue to love and appreciate Ps Clint and Jodi Thomas from Slowburn. They are truly my church-crush!

6-Can’t wait to see how God wants to do the next one. I’m really looking to expand this with other churches. Seems like it’s hard to get other churches to come out….maybe they think we are trying to promote SouthView or steal their people. Infact that’s further from the truth. We want to see God glorified in church unity. There’s power in that. Looking for other ways to connect and get them involved.

7-I’m so blessed. Great God, Fantastic Family, Caring Church, Wonderful Worship….it’s all good!

Do you think he likes Star Wars?

I can’t understand one word on this site, but the pictures really say it all. Any guy my age will appreciate what this guy has assembled in his house. I do have one observation…he definitely does not have kids!

HUGE STAR WARS FANstarwars

Random thoughts from Mark

1-Had a great day relaxing with some friends and family on Labor Day. It’s so important that you have a good group of people that you can kick back and hang with. It’s especially good to have friends that have kids your childrens’ age, so that the whole family can have fun.

2-God can show up anytime and anyplace if you let him. He showed up at our picnic yesterday and in my car on the way to work. NICE.

3-I’m really looking forward to band rehearsal tonight. We are rehearsing for our 3rd worship night this Friday. I think this band is AWESOME. We got some seriously talented and anointed people in it. Can’t wait to fire it up! SERIOUSLY Friday night is going to be AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

4-I’m really looking forward to prayer night on Wednesday night as well. These night continue to blow my mind and my thoughts on prayer.

5-I love this series on marriage we are currently doing @ church. I can’t wait to see how it effects mine and others in our church.

6-Can’t wait for the cool fall weather!

7-I need some big orders to come through at work. I’m praying for some big breakthroughs this week.

8-My buddy the mole is back…this time he’s hanging around in the back yard. I’m leaving him alone…..for now atleast.

9-Football starts in two days!!! Go Titans!

10-Once again…more new people this Sunday at church. Amazing how people keep coming to check us out…and most are staying. Still blown away every Sunday.

11-Two of my kids are in school now….weird.
