Sometimes you have to experience "it" to believe it!

What is  the "it" in the title of this post?  The "it" can be many things. Take marriage for example. You cannot really put into words what marriage really is until you experience "it".  I mean you could try and explain marriage to someone who has never been married but there is no possible way you could cover all the feelings, connections, responsibilities, joys, sorrows, communication, and on and on to really understand marriage. Sometimes you have to experience it to believe it.

And that little Adam is the only way I can tell people about  developing a loving close relationship with God. There are not enough words or sermons, or books to ever let you fully understand it. "Sometimes you have to experience "it" to believe "it!"

I want everyone who reads this blog to "experience God!"  Because when that happens, you are not going to believe it!  

So just how crazy can life get when you tune in to God? Of course you are not fully going to understand this until you experience "it!"  But let me give you a real life example:

I have a college friend who came into town. I don't get to see John, my friend very often, but when he comes to town we try and get together. We spend time reminiscing and one of the ways we do that is by going to some of the places we used to hang out when we were in college.  Thus enters the Stagger Inn!  Have I captured your attention yet?

Now here is where God enters the picture… So we are going to go into the Stagger and continue our conversation of days long past over a brew and we come across a guy sitting outside with a goat!  Yes a real goat. Well what are you supposed to say to a guy who looks like he has been on a long journey with a goat?  Now before I continue this story you have click on the link below and check this out.


Ok can you start to get the God connection?  Anyway to make a very long crazy story short…for now… Steve and his goat, LeeRoy" will be coming to our July 6th service in the park at 7:30 AM!  He will be giving the message. He is being followed all over the internet and has been on TV and radio shows across the country! This could be a very large turn out because he is going to be posting where he is speaking including Praise Community Fellowship.

And one more thing, Steve and Leeroy will be staying with Bonni and I Sunday so let the fun begin. Yes God can even use goats!  Hey no one can ever say that we are a boring church!    Make plans and tell your friends to come out to Glik park Sunday July 6th at 7:30AM for music, a goat, a story, and Gods blessing. 

See you there!  Love, pastor Kent

REMINDER: Jerry Godins memorial service is tomorrow at the Crystal Garden at 11:00 am lunch to follow.
