Last Sunday AM God was all over BPC


God was all over our service last Sunday @ BPC. Praise & worship took off with incredible singing, clapping & raising of hands. Before ending in worship Johanna Polaski shared with the congregation her need for a physical & financial touch from God. 25 people left their seats surrounding Johanna & Curtis with the laying on of hands and lifting their voices in powerful prayer. It was fantastic to see God moving through Real People at that moment.

We welcomed 7 guests to the service by giving them the book “How Good is Good Enough” by Andy Stanley. Then brought everyone up to speed on what’s happening @ BPC over the next 5 weeks.

I finished our “CrossRoads” series with a message entitled, “What to do when crisis hits.” Luke 10:38-42, Martha & Mary, gives us a glimpse into how the sisters were wired up…the reactor & the responder. So when crisis hit their lives, the death of their Bro Lazarus, each gal kicked in. The Big Idea for the morning…Our hold on God determines if we’ll be a reactor or a responder when crisis hits. Chuck Siebert (SFWC & the Sons of God MC club) gave his life changing testimony and 2 motorcycles were on display at the front during the entire service. Then, at the altar time a Real life was changed by receiving Christ…OMG (Gosh) PTL!!

I then challenged everyone in the service to submit 3 names of people they’d like to pray for & invite to our next sermon series “Get in the Game”. Many flooded the front piling a stack of cards on the table. We ended the service standing together in prayer for those Real People.

Then it was time to eat! Thanks so much to everyone who brought something to share for the luncheon and..a big thanks to Linda & her team for preparing the food & drinks. You all are the best!
