I don’t know why, but for some reason we’ve had problems with the videos playing on my blog. We have some people working on that, but until we can get it fixed, please be patient with us.

It’s hard to believe how COLD it’s been outside. I actually wore a coat today… Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm… It’s difficult to understand all the warnings of Global Warming when it’s FREEZING in L.A.

Attendance at church last weekend was HUGE. Everyone is back from their winter vacations and starting the year out with spiritual New Year’s resolutions. It makes the preacher happy when the church is full…. Just think how pleased the Lord must be. He actually died for the church, and He must enjoy it when we show our appreciation.

This weekend we will be handing out a book to everyone who is in attendance. Don’t miss out!!!!

Did you catch the last few sermons??? Christmas Eve… Jesus came!!! Last Sunday… Jesus is coming AGAIN??? Did you catch that????

More of the same this weekend…. Michael North will be back, and I think we’re going to be singing the “Days of Elijah.” Don’t you just love Michael North? If you haven’t heard his CD, you need to get to the bookstore ASAP.

I can hear all the preschool children outside my door right now. They don’t have a worry in the world. I wish I could be more like that.

Did you know that the father of one of our staff members passed away this morning? The staff that serves this church often goes through times where they themselves need to be ministered to. Please pray for your staff today.

Guess what???? I talked to Joshua Weaver via email this week, and he is going to let me give you an update on how he is doing. Joshua is a GREAT man of GOD who happens to be the number one Laker fan in L.A., and hopefully, I will post an entry with an update on how he is doing soon. Keep Joshua in your prayers. He is such a blessing.

The choir is singing at the Westside Campus this coming weekend for anyone who has thought about coming over to visit.

We are meeting in just a few minutes with the folks who are designing our new auditorium.

And… I believe with all of my heart that this coming year will be the year that we will be giving $1,000,000.00 to missions….. I’ve been praying about this for a long, long, long, long time. And I just have this feeling….. THANK YOU JESUS..

For those of you who missed last weekend, we are in the midst of planning to start four new churches in the next 12 to 18 months…. This would be miraculous in nature and speak VOLUMES to the heart and love for missions of our church family.

Well…. this blogger has to run……

Life Group this morning at 7:00 AM was OUT OF THIS WORLD….
