Man, what a great weekend!
- My mom came to town on Friday and left this afternoon. Got to spend a small amount of time with her. Was quite a blessing.
- Got to work a half day Friday and again this coming Friday. Got 6 hours of overtime, so I got the option of taking half a day…umm, yea.
- My ear has been ringing for about 11 days now. Saturday I woke up nauseated and dizzy. Finally decided (pushed) to go to the doctor after nearly vomitting twice. Come to find out, had lots of fluid in my inner ear. So, I got the hook up with some drugs.
- Talked to the Doc about church. She told me to stay off the sound board for 3 weeks because of my ear deal. I laughed…
- Hung out with my mom all day Saturday while April worked. That was neat.
- Went on a ‘ghost tour’ in downtown with mom and April on Halloween night. Perfect weather on an interesting night.
- Great day at Canvas! Guys did a great job as usual and Doug did a great job speaking God’s truth.
- Heard from Hal about the new logo. (Its on the podcast in case you missed it. First 4 mins).
- Revealed today about our online store. Read about it here. Or, it too is on the podcast. (First 8 mins). Here is link for the store. Get your Canvas gear!
- Enjoyed fellowship with good friends tonight. Very grateful for the hard work of Richard and Rachel. I owe them both a lot!! Couldn’t do my job without him. Love you bro!

We announced this morning at Canvas that anyone can now buy their Canvas gear. Instead of just plain t-shirts, we have a variety of items for everyone.
You can go to shop.savannahcanvas.com and see all the different products. From there, simply check out and have them shipped directly to your house. I ordered a ‘test’ shirt this week to see what they look like, and they look great! For the price that we would charge to order them in bulk (just to cover the cost to make them) you can pay that, if not less, and have one within a week.
So, go out, grab some gear. We have t-shirts, hoodies, maternity shirts, different colors, bags, coffee mugs, and more. It’s very exciting, because if we ordered bulk t-shirts and sold them, you would only have one choice. With this, you can pick from a variety. Very cool!
Go. Now.
(By the way, we do not gain profit from this. We have the option of doing so, but choose not to. Its more enjoyable for you and us that way).
This Sunday we’re going to be ‘informing’ everyone about some cool stuff. You’ll hear from two different guys about new things coming to Canvas Church. They’re probably not life changing, but they are cool! Make sure you are there, 10 AM at Carmike Cinemas. If you’re late, you’ll probably miss it, so be there right at 10:00.
Invite your friend dangit!!
“24For Christ did not enter a man-made sanctuary that was only a copy of the true one; he entered heaven itself, now to appear for us in God’s presence. 25Nor did he enter heaven to offer himself again and again, the way the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood that is not his own. 26Then Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world. But now he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of himself. 27Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, 28so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.” -Hebrews 9
I know, it’s a lot. But, it is dang good! I read this today during quiet time and this just put me in a state of awe. No follow up required, it speaks for itself…
Wanted to try and ‘download’ all the stuff from the week/end in to a post. We’ll try it weekly and see how it goes.
- Great morning at Canvas today! Doug spoke on ’serving’. Good takeaway: “If all you do is serve yourself, eventually, you will be by yourself.” -Doug
- The band, spontaneously Wednesday night, decided to lead a hymn this week. They did ‘Doxology’ for the first time at Canvas. GREAT job by Richard and the guys! Proud of you guys! Probably one of the best and favorite worship services.
- Unbelievable set up/take down time today by our teams! Way to knock it out of the park!
- Prayed for a family during our service. He is newly married and getting deployed Friday for a year. Pray for him and all the families like him.
- Had our ‘Canvas 101′ today. It’s basically our ‘membership class’. (We have ‘partners’, not ‘members’). GREAT time there! Just refreshing to hear the SIMPLE and AMAZING vision God has for Canvas.
- Some REALLY awesome news today. Check Doug’s post from earlier this week. (More later).
- OH…had some ladies decide to COMPLETELY bash, roll over, shoot, bad mouth, and so on, me AND Canvas on Friday. The reason? All because we didn’t include a certain word (denomination) in our church name. The amount of sin I encountered was unreal! Not to mention, as a fellow believer, I was treated like total crap. Needless to say, I was FIRED UP!! Another post for another day… It did provide some good jokes.
- The band and I got the chance to play for a ‘5th Quarter’ at a local Christian school. It was great! We did what we do best and led some folks in great worship. Great job by the band! And thanks to Jeremy and Bible Baptist for letting us do it!
- Man night for our Journey Group. Nuff said…
- Helped my new boss do some moving yesterday. Really enjoyable to get to know him and simply serve him.
Great week followed by a great weekend! God gets ALL glory. Download complete…
We decided to give Canvas a face lift. We contacted our folks at Factor 1 Studios and they did the thing we wanted. After a little time, our new look was up and running. Go to the site and navigate that bad boy!
Today was a special day for me & my baby.
3 1/2 years ago I bought my car. She had a little over 30,000 miles. Today, she turned over 100,000. To celebrate, this week we’re getting an oil change. Soon, she gets new shoes. I’m excited, but sad at the same time. She’s getting so old.
