serious goofiness
This sermons series is still my favorite of all time. It is the FOCUS summer 2005 series:
6-Jul Only God knows what we will talk about this night 1 Cor 1,2 13-Jul "Why our church is the Only Church and everyone else is going to Hell." 1 Cor 3,4 20-Jul Excommunication and you. How to get expelled from the church and incur God's wrath. 1 Cor 5,6 27-Jul You can do whatever the heck* you want. 3-Aug Why I should never have married my wife night. 1 Cor 7 10-Aug Your lack of freedom is your friend's fault. 1 Cor 8 17-Aug On Mullets and Transubstantiation. 24-Aug My spiritual gift is better than yours! Welcome back CCU students! 31-Aug 16 ways to destroy the relationships in your life. 1 Cor 13 7-Sep Speaking in Tongues and other reasons churches divide. 1 Cor 14 14-Sep You are going to die, get over it. Insert cookout here. 1 Cor 15
I remember John Wentz, JP Leong, and myself spending an hour coming up with all of the titles. What I like about is is that the titles are meant to be goofy and yet provocative at the same time. I think we pulled it off, although a few of them border on inappropriate. What was really good about it, though, was how well the messages went. John was on the top of his game that summer. I remember we had to extend "Excommunication and you" into two weeks, since the discussions at the end of the first week went really deep and so many challenging and important questions were raised.
I really miss working with our Focus team from those days.
