Imagine that you have a message that you want to go viral, to spread to the masses. How should you go about it? Despite the merits of attractive pricing and a big advertising budget, marketing experts still generally agree that word of mouth is the most effective way to reach others. We love to share stories, news, and information with those around us. We gladly tell others about great vacations spots, recommend books, chat about good deals, write online reviews, email helpful links, post funny video clips, and tweet about recipes. Put simply, word of mouth is a powerful strategy, and it’s the very same strategy God wants His followers to use today to spread the greatest and most beautiful story and reality the world has ever known.

This Week: "Look Up"

Awesome! Many of us use that word from time to time. And when you think about the word itself, it makes sense that we usually use it to describe something we're really excited about. Something awe-inspiring. Astonishing. Mind-boggling. A jaw-dropping accomplishment, performance, or outcome. Something totally unexpected.

We're often astonished by something we did or someone else did. But can you think of the last time you were astonished because God showed up and did what no one expected and the results were... well…astonishing?

There’s a reason awesome, astonishing things happen. We'll be talking about that reason this Sunday. And Lord willing our time together focused on this subject will result in frequent astonishing works of God that blow our minds.
