The sun sets, the sun rises. Chapters end so that new pages can be turned and new stories, adventures, and tales can be written and then told. Last week many of you watched a season, a chapter, a sunset in my life and I believe in PURE’s as well. You physically saw the fulfillment of one of God’s greatest promises…the promise that He would restore, reconcile, renew, and repair what was meant to destroy. No doubt my relationship with my dad was one of those things intended to destroy, not at my dads hand but at the finger tips of an adversary that would love to see you, me, and my dad, and our relationship…fail.
Some of you didn’t make it out last week…so I will stick this in here so you can catch up before you come tonight. At this moment last weeks service is the most viewed service we’ve ever had…literally ever. I don’t think it’s because the service was emotional or just moving to watch. I believe its because there is a promise in the healing you saw take place each one of us longs to see take place in our hearts. There is something powerful about healing, restoration, and freedom being physically declared. I love it! So enjoy…

So whats the sun rising on? Whats the title of the next chapter for PURE, for me, for you? There is a promise that we made at the beginning of this year…and it will be realized even more than it already has the first 6 months of this year. That promise is…
Freedom in Grace//Hope in Love//Depth of Heart
We have already seen so much of this come true is so many lives this year it’s incredible and what He has planned for us this next 6 months…I cant even imagine what I will be blogging about in December and January.
But tonight…tonight we celebrate. Not looking back…but looking forward in anticipation of what He’s going to do next that will literally blow our minds. Realizing where He’s brought us from should only ever drive us to our knees in worship filled anticipation of what’s next.
We are blessed to have a great leader, a visionary, and a communicator spend the night with us tonight. Without his insight and encouragement…PURE wouldn’t have been realized and would have stayed a dormant dream. Big thank you to Pastor Tony Wood for being our honored guest tonight.
