The Journey of Mike Harris
This week has been exciting and challenging all at the
same time. In my work with coaching church planters,
we were given the privilege of spending a couple of
days with author and prophetic voice Alan Hirsch. I
also took our Leadership Team over to hear Alan on
Wednesday night. One of the best things that
happened to me as I was listening to Alan speak is
that I fell in love with Jesus all over again. Jesus is
amazing. He is not only the image of God in the
universe, he is also the most beautiful human being
who ever lived. He is a wild revolutionary of love, and
those who encounter Him are never the same again.
All around The Journey I see the evidence of His
powerful transformation in the lives of people. In fact,
this Sunday after our morning worship gathering, I will
be baptizing another person who recently stepped
across the line of faith and invited Jesus into her life.
You'll be hearing more from her this Sunday, so I
hope you join us at our worship gathering at
11:00am.
This past week, many of us have been praying and
visiting Heather Pond in the hospital. Heather was
baptized here at The Journey in August. This week
she underwent open heart surgery at the age of 24.
She is recovering well, although in a lot of pain.
Please keep her and the family in your prayers.
This Sunday, we also kick off our Dave Ramsey
Financial Peace University class. Go to our website
(www.ijourneyonline.com) for more information on
that.
