New stuff from North Point

As many of you may know, I am a huge fan of North Point community church. They do some great things, and have some awesome environments. On top of that, they just get it as a church. They won't settle for anything less. Now in my mind, Pinnacle is just the same in a lot of ways, however we are a much younger church with WAY limited resources, so we just have to be really creative when it comes to making our environments. If you want to check out North Point's way cool website, you can do it by clicking here. I know a couple of guys down there really well, and know OF a lot of other ones. One really good musician I know OF, who also happens to be on staff there always has some really cool things to share on his blog. His name is Reid Greven, and he is always talking about the coolest things on his blog. Go check it out!

Steve Fee, who is one of the worship leaders there at the church has got a really cool song that I would say will be released in the next year or so. It's him and Eddie Kirkland on this song, and Reid did a really cool intro of it. Listen to it here!

So one more random thought before I close this post today: have you ever been around someone, and you could just feel the success dripping off of them? Well I have a friend like that. his name is Jonathan Jones. I got to hang out with him for a few short minutes today, which is rare because I am never in Asheville. But it was cool. We hadn't seen each other in a while, and it felt good to reconnect. As we were talking, I realized how much he was impacting our world for Christ, and neither one of us probably realized it. Let me explain. Jonathan loves coffee. He lives, eats, sleeps and breathes coffee. He might figure out how to run a car on it one day. But anyways, we were in the shop he works for called Bean Werks. They roast their own coffee, and then distribute it to coffee shops all over Western North Carolina. Jonathan is always coming up with new blends, new ways to grind and roast, and all the other stuff that goes along with that. He trully is passionate about what he does there at the shop. Now, I don't think he is making any major bank working there, but the really cool thing is how awesome it is to be able to watch him work. He loves it! Write this name down: Jonathan Jones. He will be a pioneer in the coffee world one day. He will be successful. He already is. He loves God, loves people, and weather he knows it, he is changing lives. One cup of coffee at a time.

Well, that's all folks. See you next week. (Or maybe tomorrow.)
