Sunday Reflections

Here are some thoughts from Sunday at Elevate:

• It was the last week of our Crank It Up series and we did a message called WE is louder than me.
• Christ came for everyone! (John 3:16)  It really is amazing when you think about it.  He came for you, people like you, and people nothing like you.  
• We had someone receive Christ during the service!  That is awesome.
• People are not an object to be used but someone to be loved.
• No one is so bad they can't have the Savior nor so good they don't need a Savior.
• We all are in desperate need of grace from a Savior who loves us and gave His life for us. (Romans 5:8)
• Everyone can meet the requirement: faith in Jesus.  (Acts 15:9-11)
• Therefore, we should be a church for everyone who needs Christ.
• Let's do everything we can to not make it difficult for those who are turning to God! (Acts 15:19)
• Our focus must be outsiders not insiders. (Colossians 4:5)  
• We are a place for everyone because Christ came for everyone and we will do whatever it takes to reach everyone with the Gospel. (1 Corinthians 9:22-23)
• Yes, In-n-Out has a secret menu. 
• We will be moving some stuff this week in to the storage room they're are providing for us at Torrey Pines.
• This coming Sunday (September 5th) will be our first Sunday at Torrey Pines High School!
• We are also starting a two week series called The Viral Effect.  Don't miss it!
