So about 10 or 12 days ago I came out strong with this illusion that I would post daily through the end of the year, reflecting on the past 12 months with lists of "bests". I said "daily". You thought it was a joke when you read it, didn't you? At any rate, I failed. Perhaps I should produce a list of "my bads" from 2006.
Nah. I think that's a really bad idea.
Truth is, I got pretty wrapped up prepping for the message for this past weekend. I borrowed an idea that our Senior Pastor, Mark Beeson, used last year: using a big spinning wheel to preach through "20 Ways to Look for God in '07". Of course, there was no way to preach through all 20 in any one service, so our volunteers from each service spun the wheel to determine which 5-6 topics I'd talk about in each service.
It was a lot of fun for me and seemed to really connect with our people. If you'd like to see the whole list, it's the next post.
