Today Greg Surratt, Senior Pastor Seacoast Church in Charleston, SC, is speaking at all four services at The Journey-Manhattan. I’ve know Greg personally for a couple of years, listened to his sermons/podcasts for even longer and been a fan of Seacoast for as long as I can remember.  Greg has been super-gracious to us and our multi-site expansion. I know he’ll hit a home run today!

I’ll be there hosting each service and encouraging our volunteers (something I don’t always get to do when I’m speaking).  It’s rare for us to have a guest speaker and even more rare for me to be in town when we have a guest speaker.  I’m looking forward to hanging with Greg and ‘walking slowly through the crowd’ today.

In Brooklyn and Jersey City I’ll be teaching on the big screen and challenging everyone to do a Servant Evangelism project right after each Service.

We also have 50+ people for membership class this afternoon.

Should be a unique and fun day!  I can’t wait to share with everyone that we baptized 50+ people yesterday at Jones Beach (the weather was perfect!!).

Off to the first service…hope you have a great Sunday!
