Another Sunday, another briefing. This one will be short as I am both busy and don’t particularly have a lot to share. I will likely have more to share in a week or two, as I reflect on this period of time, but for the moment much of what I am thinking about is still developing and is not ready for blogging!
Tonight is a big night for The Hub. By big I mean we will learn a fair bit about how we will approach the plant from here till August. We are doing a bit of a special event tonight. If it goes well, we will likely look to do a few more special events (perhaps 1 every 6 weeks) between now and August. If tonight doesn’t go so well then we’ll have to reflect on our strategy and seek God again for guidance about what he would have us do. For now we feel confident that we are doing as God would desire, but I suppose we will see tonight.
Sync Youth is also really starting to kick off. We are close to what I would consider a ‘critical mass’, which is very exciting only two weeks in. What excites me more is that the youth we have appear to have a real openness to going deeper. I don’t just want to get lots of kids along, I want to challenge our teenagers to really go deep and grapple with what faith is all about and what it could mean for their lives.
This week should allow me a little time to reflect and get set for the next few weeks. I’ll be looking to consolidate over the next little while, in every area, and I am looking forward to that.
