- Probably our worst day yet since we launched but always a good day when people come into a relationship with Jesus.
- 2 more today!
- Attendance was down with the holiday, we had more technical issues today than we probably have had all the other week’s combined and because of the holiday movie schedule, we had to rush to get out even though we have the theaters rented for far longer than they gave us today.
- I didn’t sleep well last night…so I think I appreciated the the extra half-hour I gave for the team to arrive more so than anyone else.
- We’re doing a great job of getting set-up…really got a system going now.
- Great to see some of my Chambersburg peeps make the trip up today to be a part of the Experience.
- Also had the Smith family in from the Boston area today…Mike is the pastor of LifeQuest Church and is a great friend.
- Today was the last message in the Mind Your Own Business series and since I was talking about saving and investing, we decided to start with the song Billionaire. The problem is last week the guy who was supposed to do the rap part while he was home on Thanksgiving break fell through…
- So the rapping fell to…Me.
- I listened to the song about a billion times this week.
- Here’s a video in case you missed it or just want to laugh at me again.
- I don’t get nervous before speaking but I was before doing this.
- It was fun but I’m glad it’s done.
- Bill did an awesome job on his part considering it’s above his comfortable range.
- Because I knew the message was going to be longer today, we only had time for 2 participation songs but the crowd seemed to be into it and the band did a great job.
- I don’t know if it was because rapping sapped my energy or just because I was tired, but I never really found my rhythm preaching today.
- It could also be as I said during the message that it seemed more like a financial seminar than a sermon.
- Still good stuff though that has changed my life for 15+ years so I hope and pray that everyone will take all the principles of the series and apply them.
- With all that said, I’d still recommend you listen to the message from today…lots of practical financial tips.
- I love getting to meet people afterward and hear the stories…awesome.
- Next week we begin the “I Hate the Holidays” series by looking at the first thing that makes people hate them…STRESS.
- Make sure you invite someone to come out and be a part…have a great week and don’t forget to Mind Your Own Business.

I loved the opening, and think most people don’t notice (or are able to overlook) the things you mentioned. You are probably too hard on yourself, G. I want to encourage you that as long as you are authentic, which you are, God will do the rest. This sermon series was so important, and many people will be blessed by it.
THANK YOU for all you do, and are doing, for the kingdom!!!
