sunday’s scuds

Sunday brought the conclusion of the ONLY YOU CAN BE U series. Great series. Great wrap-up. Per usual, Dwight’s message was scud-a-licous. Here are a few of my favorites:

• The way to experience greatness is by being the YOU you were created to be.
• Quit trying to turn your weaknesses into strengths. When you spend time doing that, you end up average.
• We all want to be considered servants. The problem is, none of us want to be treated like servants.
• We all aspire to greatness but somewhere along the way we become frustrated and we decide greatness is unattainable.
• Greatness is within the reach of every person in this room.
• God is more interested in the reason you and I serve than HOW you and I serve.
• Being humble doesn’t mean you think less of yourself. It means you think of yourself less.
• Hospitality doesn’t look to impress people. Hospitality looks to impact people.
• If you want to have an impact on someone’s life, the quickest way to do that is to serve them.
• Servants see a need and they act on it.
• One of the greatest ways you can server others is by praying for them.
• Jesus was a peacemaker but He wasn’t a peace-keeper. He didn’t avoid conflict.
• Keeping peace isn’t worth losing your integrity over.
• If the truth were known, we’d rather be celebrities than to be great.

A new, two-part series by Dave D’Angelo starts next week. It’s gonna be goooooood! See you Sunday!
