Last Letter Documentary

What if we all lived like this? I don’t mean in Memphis in crack houses or in the middle of a jungle with the longest civil war in history. I mean what if we were so in love with God that we would go anywhere, do anything, at anytime for Him without fear of judgement from others or fear of losing our lives? I watched this video and just sat weeping.  I challenge you to watch this video; all of it. Then pray to God a dangerous prayer.  Pray Isaiah 6:8, “Here I am. Send me.” Tell Him you’ll be the one He can ask when ____________ (fill in the blank)

Please watch this. It starts a little slow but it gets better. If you really can’t watch the whole thing start at 4:55.

Courageous Church Big Give on Atlanta NBC

Shaun King pastor of Courageous Church in Atlanta has been asking for donations on twitter/facebook for their big give to raise 290 school uniforms and a present for every kid at a school in Atlanta. They accomplished that mission. Read about it here and watch it below:

Man I cried like a baby when they opened the gifts! So glad I got to participate in that. I didn’t give much – but look at what God can do when a few people give a very little. I don’t regret sending $10 bucks, but perhaps you regret not sending something? I say that to encourage you to give, not to make you feel bad. Next time your faced with an opportunity to give don’t hold back and end up regretting it!

People of the Second Chance

If you have ever made a mistake and needed forgiveness then you need to watch this and start reading potsc.com.  So just so we are clear, that means you. Yes you have made a mistake at some point in your life. People of the Second Chance is all about grace and forgiveness.  Take for example Michael Vick.  What is your first thought of him when you hear his name? Do you want him to succeed in the NFL or because he made a stupid choice he should not succeed at anything?

We as Christians are supposed to be Christ like. That’s what we do we should do.  Christ forgave. PERIOD!  He is the one true Judge knowing our motives when we do things.  Yet He forgives.  Jesus said “By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another” (John 13:35 NIV)  Do you do more loving or more judging?

Introducing YouVersion Live

As you know if you’ve been reading my blog or know anything about me, I LOVE technology.  I am a huge fan of www.youversion.com. If you have never heard of it or used it you’re missing out.  As the community of user continues to grow you have access to God’s word but also many people’s different views of scripture. They can share a video, picture, link or text about a verse that they think relates to that verse.  Definitely go sign up and add me as a friend. My name is TIMLEM on youversion.

Now this next part really excites me.  YouVersion announced yesterday that they are introducing a new feature called YouVersion Live.  This will enable churches/conferences to share bible verses/notes live with people using their mobile device or laptop.  It also enables them to particpate by answering polls and other interactive features.  I know it will be a while before we get to this point (especially in SouthWest Virginia) but imagine a day when we no longer have to print bulletins instead we pull out our phones and have access to the notes and scripture. I already do this using Evernote on my iPhone during church.  Rather than taking notes on some piece of paper and going home and losing that piece of paper (I hate keeping up with paper – I learned that bad habit from Greg) I can just take notes in Evernote and then when I think what was that verse Jimmie mentioned last year in that message about pain, I can just search for it and find it instantly. (longest sentence I’ve ever written)

Anyways, see the video below for a sneak peak from ChurchCrunch.com:
