love jesus and be nice to people
i love our senior class. there is so much potential.
the past four years they have heard many talks. been a part of many retreats. and worked hard on many outreach trips.
if you remember one thing, let it be this: Love God and Love others.
or as a junior high pastor once told me…

what we do on a Sunday Night at Velocity
it has begun…
the haircut
during our 9 Easter services at NorthRidge, these High School students took a break from helping out in the parking lot to give Jarrod a haircut.
(another) weekend update
has it been a week since i last posted? wow.
well. this last weekend was quite busy. it started friday. velocity decided to do the 30 Hour Famine that world vision hosts. me and 35 other velocity staff and students started fasting around 7:00a on friday. we got together, had some worship, played some games, slept at the church, served in detroit, then ended the fast at 1:00p saturday afternoon. thanks to anne gardner we had a kickin’ “traditional” african meal. overall we raised over $4,000 for world vision to help feed kids in africa.
then came velocity.
i gave the talk on “who do you say jesus is?” it was based off of peter’s confession in matthew 16:15 – “You are the Christ, son of the living God.”
for a creative element, we had two students spray paint both positive and negative views of jesus on to a large piece of muslin fabric (see pic) … after the talk, the band did three worship songs from behind the fabric…it was a powerful night of confession and worship of who jesus is.
Weekend Update
saturday was a relaxing day. another one of those day that no work has to be done (on my part). I took some time to read crazy love (haven’t finished it yet). in MI it was a sunny 55 degrees (F) outside, so that made for a more cheerful attitude than usual. tony tice spoke at northridge church saturday night…i enjoyed being challenged on being a person of truth 100% of the time.
sunday was a long day. bill and i drove to the birmingham campus of kensington community church. it was a great experience. northridge is launching our first regional campus in saline, mi. so it was great to see how other churches are doing the whole multi-site gig.
this pic is of the junior high group [breakaway]. they meet right outside of the cafeteria
this is the main auditorium [where the big people go to church]
*all pics were taken with my iPhone*
sunday night we had velocity. it was a blast. bill brought the talk – the main point was god gives rest. whoa! did our students need to hear this one!! i guess if bill and i are honest though, the talk was designed for him and i. we have been going and going…we need to find rest in the God we’re serving!
i’m excited about teaching this next sunday. the topic? “who do you say jesus is?” gonna be sweet.
