It has been far too long since I posted to this blog.  For those of you who are using this as a method to keep up with what we are doing in Annapolis… I am truly sorry.

Things are going well here in Annapolis.  Every day that we draw closer to the launch I feel more [...]

The past week has been crazy and amazing!

Last Friday, we signed a lease with Loews Annapolis Hotel to begin holding public services there October, 24th.
Last Saturday we delivered food to 75 families in Annapolis.
Last Sunday we had our first pre-launch church service at the Austin Grill. We worshiped together, had a message, talked about our [...]

Today was awesome.  We did a community car wash and a block party.  We had a blast!  A team from Southeast Christian Church in Louisville, KY was here today to help us.  They worked hard all day long!

Here are a few things that I learned today!

People are astounded when you do something just to show [...]

I just read the book Same Kind of Different As Me incredible book.  It is the true story of a wealthy couple (Ron and Debbie) that befriends a homeless man (Denver) who then ends up teaching them more than they could possibly have imagined.  You should totally read the book.  Here is just one part [...]

(One of our equipment trailers – Tim Captain is trying to convince me to change the name of the church!)
Tonight Matt Murphy (the leader of our bands) and I went to New Life Christian Church and inventoried all of our “gear”.  We had a blast hanging out and talking.  It was great for both of [...]

We had another revolution hangout tonight.  It went really well.  Had several people come for the first time.  I am really excited to see this new team come together.  One of my favorite parts was watching several people exchanging information so they could hang out again.

Tonight we talked about the vision of Revolution.  That we [...]

Will Mancini describes vision in his book Church Unique by using the metaphor of a leader standing on top of a mountain looking out at where he wants to take his people.  From the mountain top he can see what the journey is going to be like.  He can see what the hardships, the mountain [...]

For the last four months Andrew Hunter (a member of our launch team who moved to Annapolis to help us plant the church) has been preparing to lead a messianic passover service.  Passover is something that the Jewish people have celebrated every year since God delivered them from the bondage of slavery in Egypt.  Andrew [...]
