Sunday Rewind: Monday Edition

  • We had an awesome worship experience yesterday!
  • From the moment I drove on the campus I knew it was going to be an amazing day.
  • On top of a our regular service we had a wedding with a reception afterwards, and then I had a finance meeting.
  • It was a very busy but extremely productive day.
  • I wanted to give a special shout out to my beautiful bride Tami, Mary M, and Linda A. for all of their hard work this passed week.
  • You ladies inspired me this weekend with your drive to get the job done.
  • Our 21 day fast ended on Saturday so I know that people were ready to eat "regular" food.
  • This is our second year doing a church wide fast.
  • I love starting the new year off with our church wide fast.
  • A couple of the benefits I've discovered regarding a fast is that not only does it clean out our physical systems but also our spiritual systems.
  • I know that sounds simple but there are some really cool thoughts about this fact.
  • First, the health benefits of fasting are incredible. It sucks in the beginning...but after a few days you begin to see the and affects and benefits.
  • Fasting helps you begin to understand what your body really needs to operate at maximum levels.
  • I've discovered as a leader it has the same affects and benefits on my spiritual life.
  • Now a 21 day fast is nothing more than a glorified diet if you don't spend time focusing on your relationship with Jesus.
  • The spiritual benefits that I have experienced during these last 21 days have been incredible.
  • It re-ignited a passion in me to honor God with every area in my life.
  • I remember one Sunday morning where it literally felt like the cotton was taken out of my ears and I could hear God more clearly.
  • There were moments during this fast that I had to make some tough decisions for our church and without hesitation I was able to step up and make them.
  • I totally attribute this decisive action to fasting.
  • These last 21 days were a stretching, pulling, growing, re-prioritizing season but it was totally worth it!
  • DAGer's I am so proud of all of you that took the fasting and praying challenge. I know it wasn't easy but I'm sure you would tell me that it was what you needed.
  • We can't not stop here we need to keep seeking Jesus with all of our hearts, minds, and strength.
  • I believe that 2010 is going to be an unforgettable years for me, my family, and our church.
  • I think what one of the first time guest said yesterday says it all, "there's alot of potential in this place."
  • We're taking it to a whole nutha level at DAG and the Trevino household.

WEEK 3 - God is Big Enough!

Pastor Gabe is continuing his teaching series "God is Big Enough" this Sunday. How many times in our lives have we looked at our past and present and said to ourselves "how could God love a person like me?" I think we're all guilty of saying this. This Sunday Pastor Gabe is going to reminded us that God is big enough to love us. We hope you join us at our 10:30am Worship Experience to be inspired by this life changing message.

NEW BOOK!!!

Just got Bob Franquiz's book Zero to sixty this past week. I was looking for a book that would give me straight to the point information. After reading several reviews of this book I had to get it.

So far I'm really impressed with the book. When I'm finished I'll share my thoughts a little more.
