Hey, if you’re planning on attending, would you mind to go to the FCCN worship ministry page and sign up to attend the event?  Also feel free to invite others!  Ice cream, music, stories of real people being the hands and feet of Jesus to families.  And an inflatable bounce house too!

Choir begins September 12!

“All of Creation sing with me now, lift up your voice and lay your burden down!  Oh, oh oh o a ow a oh!”

Value of the Month: I’m a 10!

The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ” (1st Corinthians 12:12)

Okay, so what if I feel like I’m in the wrong role?  Let’s start with a story from sports: Gary Payton.  He was a very talented point guard.  In 2003 he joined the Los Angeles Lakers.  Sounds like a good move, right? Wrong.  Gary’s best fit was in a pick and roll offense, not the L.A. triangle offense.  Gary struggled in that system.  He was simply in the wrong role.  The result?  The Lakers lost in the NBA finals to the Detroit Pistons.  Obviously there were other factors that led to the Laker’s demise, but any hard core basketball junkie will tell you that the Gary Payton acquisition was the wrong move for the Laker nation.

The good news?  Payton finally won an NBA championship in 2006 with the Miami Heat.  They had an offensive/defensive strategy that fit his gifts.  Their offense flowed better with Payton at the point, and he hit two crucial game winning shots (nba.com).

You can probably see where I’m headed with this.  Gary Payton was extremely talented.  He just was in the wrong role in Los Angeles.  What about you?  Are you frustrated in your current role?  Do you feel like you have more talent to give, it’s just not in your current role?  Think and pray about it.  Then pick up your cell and shoot me a text.  We’ll burn up the bandwidth this week (449-3474).
