It's been an incredible month going through the Hurts, Habits series together with you. I want to personally thank Mark, Steven, Darrin and Debbie for making the midweek follow-up sessions so practical and authentic. So many of you shared your personal journeys with us - those of you who spoke publicly, shared on the blog, and asked the tough questions on Wednesday nights. Thank you for making yourself so vulnerable...God is really working through your willingness to share. For those of you who may have missed the sessions, you'll definitely want to listen to the podcasts.

Like Mark said this past Wednesday, it would be unrealistic for us to expect that this intensity and depth of conversation can continue day-to-day - but it's my personal prayer that as a church we can help facilitate creating some on-going experiences and groups where you can continue to seek support, answers and community. Debbie is working to help those of you who wish to seek out support/study/recovery groups. Please email Debbie or visit the Information Booth during the weekend services to let us know some of the specifics that you're interested in.

This month, we're shifting gears as a church and looking into what Jesus had to say about stewardship in our new series, All Aboard. I hope you'll join us. Byron, Darrin, Martha and the 'crew' have put their heads together to come up with some unique ways to help us remember God's call to stewardship. I think we're going to grow together and have some fun in the process. See you tonight!
