Save the Drama fo' yo' Mama!


I have no idea why I picked that title. Sara has a t-shirt that says that, and it sounded good, I guess.
I am actually very excited about drama. I just have to say that I never cease to be amazed at the God-given talent in our church body!
For the two of you that read my blog that do not attend First Baptist Clarksville, we are about to start a new church-wide campaign called "40 Days of Community". The whole goal being to connect with other believers and reach unbelievers and unchurched outside our walls. We will be doing missions and outreach programs, and I am so pumped about all of it!
So where does the drama come in? Well, I have the pleasure of being a part of the weekend services planning team, and we are attempting to pull out all the stops and make our worship services completely different. We have decided that drama is something we want to add to our services. So last night we rehearsed with a group of folks, mostly youth, who are going to try to pull this off, and I am just impressed. They are really going to be great!
There are so many gifted people hiding out there in our congregation, and I am always pleasantly surprised to see who God puts into position.
So that's it, that's my praise today. I have so much fun in this ministry, I am a little guilty some times. I guess no one ever said serving God couldn't be fun. Hence finding the joy of the Lord!

Love your title and picture!

Yes, we have a lot of talent, but you know, it takes people like you and Mark to even get the vision for how to USE the talent!

I agree. It's like we're having too much fun, isn't it?!

How blessed we are to be in a church where worshiping and serving God are exciting! I prayed a lotta years for exactly this to happen! Well, to tell the truth, it's even better than I could have asked or imagined!

I am also excited about all the talent in the church, but more so that we are not afraid to use it for God's glory. Very fun, looking forward to learning more alto parts I will never remember. :)

I'm with Kathy. Great title & pic. Where did you find the pic? What production is it from?

It is beginning to get really exciting around FBC. As if it hasn't already been. I can't wait to see what's going to happen when God really gets a hold of us. Especially those who have been fighting giving in to Him.

Can't wait!
