Yeah, so it's a shame the Koinonia gang couldn't put together an exciting party of something for the new year.

Kidding ... Sunday night was a riot. Apologies to all of those who had to miss it. Among the pleasures was getting the opportunity to see something relatively close to a full Heath Rosborough solo performance (with a heckuva backup band). Granted, the performance was about half his stuff and half recognizable praise & worship tunes. But it was loud, which in my mind, helped. I had the unigue pleasure of serving as the effective "street team" for Heath, so it was great to see a good number of people hearing his music for the first time and come over to the table to pick up a CD and/or ask a few questions about the guy. I've got my review of Heath's CD back here. If you like it, buy it.

Among the items I've been negligent to blog about this slow week is the fact that next week's service is now officially a must-see. I blogged a rather humorous Marcos Witt excerpt of his latest sermon. In it, he "challenged" Dr. Paul Osteen to sing for us this past weekend as well as Joel to dance for us ... all things that we got in a Marcos Witt sermon. Well, I think Paul hit a home run with his decision to call Joel's bluff. Seems the good doctor did a rather nice Elvis ballad for his wife just to put the onus on Joel to dance for us next weekend. I kinda wish I'd recorded the sermon to have the full video of it, but sleep had to win out for the late night I'm now winding down. Fear not, if Joel busts out some disco moves, it will be archived ;-) Just to be on the safe side, though, don't miss service this next weekend.

Anyways, hope everyone has had a wonderful holiday season behind them now and a great new year to look forward to.
