e-devotion notes

It is going to be a great week as we seek the Lord and let Him work in and through our lives.  The Community Fellowship enjoyed some great things and some new things this weekend.  Take a look at my blog for some of those notes and celebration...www.e-devotion.blogspot.com  
 
Here are some things that I ask you to pray for: Amber McDaniel's court appearance is tomorrow afternoon, and we ask that you plead with God for a miracle that she is released and can move with her parents and twin boys to move to Texas on Wednesday.  Wilbur Turner lives near our church and has been on a transplant like for a new liver.  As a veteran he got news today a possible liver is set for him.  Please pray for Wilbur and his family as they are excited and asking for his healing.
 
One of the things that I am most excited about is the series One Prayer that begins in just two weeks.  The Community Fellowship and House of Prayer Church are part of the 1,080 plus churches joining forces with this.  Further, we announced yesterday a possible link between House of Prayer and The Community.  Please pray for the leaders of both churches as we seek the Lord for direction.  This is where He is leading us, and it is so exciting...more notes to come.
 
I close with some verses that have hit us greatly since we began as a church and will help as both churches seek the Lord.
 
Isaiah 43:18-19 (nlt) --- But forget all that—it is nothing compared to what I am going to do.  For I am about to do something new.  See, I have already begun! Do you not see it?  I will make a pathway through the wilderness.  I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.
 
Tune in for more about "authentic community" and One Prayer later this week.  Happy Memorial Day!  Thanks to all of you who have served our nation in military who helped secure our freedom.

Francis Chan's "Forgotten God" (brand new book)

One of the most powerful preachers, writers and leaders of our time, in my opinion, is Francis Chan.  His first book, Crazy Love , revolutionized my thoughts about God's love as well as my interacting with God.  Now it is time for a brand new book from Chan being released tomorrow, September 1st.  The book is Forgotten God .   This is a phenomenal book about the power that Christians and the church can and must tap into.  All of it is within the Holy Spirit.  Francis talks about the power that was seen in the book of Acts when the Holy Spirit began to move among people.  It is true that many have avoided or maybe forgotten what the Holy Spirit is all about.   And like the Savior who poured out His life and blood so we have reason to rejoice, we were made to lay down our lives and give until it hurts.  We are most alive when we are loving and actively giving of ourselves because we were made to do these things.  It is when we live like this that the Spirit of God moves and ac...

inspiration from C.S. Lewis

There are many people, past and present, who get our attention by what they write or say or share.  For me C.S. Lewis is one of those.  He was a prolific writer who continues to grab the attention of thinkers from many different points of view. Lewis first grabbed my attention when I was in 5 th grader, and our teacher, Mrs. Foy, shared The Chronicles of Narnia with our class.  It was a powerful time that this dreamer opened doors to thinking like I had never lived before.  He wrote of faith, of far off places and of strong figures who found their character rooted deep in God. C.S. Lewis was born in 1898 and died in 1963, 7 years before I was born.  It wasn’t until his 30’s that under the influence of his friend Tolkien that he came to be a Christian.  He was raised in a traditional church going home, turned away from God as an Atheist in his teen years and through trying to stay away from God and faith returned to God with...
