How do two people become one? What do we do when your spouse looks more like the proverbial “ball and chain” and less like the “apple of your eye”. Join us at The Well for this unique message series where we look at the biblical concept of marriage from both the male and the female perspective. We will explore what to do in the midst of the difficulties that often come in a marriage and how we can be more faithful to the biblical understanding of what marriage is all about.

Week 1: What does it take? (male perspective)
Week 2: What does it take? (female perspective)
Week 3: Why is it so hard? (male perspective)
Week 4: Why is it so hard? (female perspective)

• Sunday was incredible!
• We opened up the morning with “Bring Me to Life.”  I loved this song back when it came out, but it fit the message great.
• Message was up front because we had a ton going on.
• We got to see God glorified through baptisms, people reaffirming their faith, professions of faith, and a bunch of people joining the church.  It was amazing.
• Worship was at the end of the service.  I love when we get to do this.  The message, baptizing, and all the excitement really prepared our hearts for worship.
• EVERYONE was really into the worship.  I love that as a worship leader because I get to see a body of Christ lifting their voices to their King.
• “Awakening” was a great series.  One most churches should probably hear.
• Looking forward to starting our marriage series on Sunday, “He Said. She Said.”

• I’m really digging this “Awakening” series.  Unfortunately it ends next week, but I think it’s been really huge for our church.
• Andy told me this morning about 3 separate families who intentionally listen to the message online if they miss a week.  That’s so awesome to me. By the way, if you do miss a week and want to hear the message, I edit and upload them by Monday afternoon and you can listen to them by clicking HERE.
• One of those families in particular has been listening online for months but never came to the church until this Sunday.  That’s technology being used to bring people to God right there!
• Getting pretty pumped about the next series.  It will be a series on marriage called “He Said. She Said.”

• Today was solid!  Great new set design and new look!  Great band!  Great message!  Crowd was still semi up even though many were traveling for the holidays!  God claimed victory!
• Melissa’s sister and her boyfriend came to church so that was cool having them there.
• Met a Twitter friend in person finally, Josh Watson and his wife.  Looking forward to seeing how God uses all of them down in Orlando.
• The Quench Student Ministry did a fundraiser lunch after the service for their ski retreat.  We gave some money but opted for IHOP instead.  I hope they raised a ton of money.  I’m praying in advance that God will use that trip to strengthen and change their lives.
• 2009 has been a great year at The Well.  I can’t wait to see what all God has in store for us in 2010!

So today we start our new 2010 campaign (website, facebook, and billboards) with the simple phrase “Need boost?”  Sunday mornings at The Well are a RECHARGE day and get pumped about going out into our lives and telling people about Jesus.  They are like the prep rallies back in high school only with a better band (but maybe im biased…lol).  And instead of shouting for a mascot and for an udder defeat of our rival school, on Sunday mornings we shout for our JESUS CHRIST and for an udder defeat of satan!  Are you with me?  So if for some reason you’ve found this blog and you don’t go to church, maybe…just maybe, church and that RECHARGE is just what you need.  So we’ll see you Sunday morning at 10am at Excel to shout for JESUS!

Setlist:
All Creation Sing (Fee)

• I LOVE my church!  There is  just a great feeling about being there on Sunday mornings!
• Andy knocked his message out of the park.  Unfortunately we forgot to record it so we went up to Excel today and re-recorded it.  No one will ever know…unless they read this blog.  HA!
• Melissa’s sister, mom, and grandma all came to church this morning.  That was a really cool thing to have some of her family with us.  We all went to Chili’s for lunch.  Then her dad, grandpa, and great grandma and my step-mom all came over for dinner.  Melissa made some meatloaf and it was soooo good.  I usually don’t care for meatloaf, but her’s is so good.
• Counting our not-yet-born baby girl, there were 5 generations at our apartment from Melissa’s side: Great Grandma Mable, Grandma Heideman, Melanie, Melissa, and our baby girl.
• The band was as solid as ever.  We opened up with “All Creation Sing” and when we hit the first chord I knew it was going to be a great morning.
• I was really looking forward to having Steve Wade sing “O Holy Night” but he had an unfortunate virus this weekend.  Erica came through and sang beautifully.
• God is good!
