What are you doing with your life and how are you gaining momentum toward your vision or life goal?

Lifebulbs flash in my mind on United Airlines’ Boeing 757-500, row 11 seat c. Hiccups of life smash on my windshield and automatic wipers quickly clear them away.

Does this mean those moments will never happen? Is this a smoke n mirror magic show or glimmers of faith?

I loaded my thoughts these past 4 hours with notions of serving others continuously, creating supersonic relationships. I was encouraged ++ to know my creator Jesus Christ is interested in the +details of my life.

The details and details and details and details of my life even when I find them inconsequential. Yes and yes ++

Special Thanks to my wife Chantelle, Erwin Mcmanus and Francis Chan who inserted a handy drive of information in my spirit. This canvas I call life… this life whispers… and whispers are reality.

+ Jesus can Fix You

{PRAYER}
Happy Memorial Day to America’s troops. God I ask you today to protect them, comfort their families and bring as many home safely as we can afford. Americans: We would not be the United…. States of America without millions of gallons of blood spilled all over the earth’s surface. THANK YOU TROOPS

Check out this video of the new CHURCH SHOES. This does not apply to all churches but for those of you in the target market of generation Y, Generation X… please take a look at what you are up against. So when a young cat walks up with some hot pink bottom skates on…. you know he is wearing Sunday’s best. Kanye is always good for a laugh.

Church culture is changing, Church marketing is upgraded and Jesus is more alive than ever. we can change those who say i Hate Church to i Love Jesus. it CAN happen.

GAY = SIN from Matthew Brown on Vimeo.

What can you not love about Vimeo? The videos are crafty, content is extraordinary and I always am inspired which leads me to FRIDAY. What I love about Friday, at times I hate. For instance, as I stare back into this weeks hallway I am reminded of many moments and looking forward to engage past paintings with future masterpieces…

Gay, Gay, Gay, Gay… I feel is all people talk about. The other day I caught this video and have never seen anything captured in this light. I already know, if you are a homosexual, you will leave me comments about how you hate church and that is why you will never go back. If you are not gay you will erupt with comments about Adam and Eve, Sodom and Gomorrah and so on. which leads me to my next point.

Take a step back, a deep breathe … both gays and straight folks. If you are gay and you feel the church hates you and people screaming your going to hell, please allow us to apologize for those individuals who are throwing emotional and passionate punches. Jesus cares about you, He cares about your feelings, He wants you to talk to Him, He believes in the gifts inside of you, He always knocks on your door and no matter what you feel the church has said to you, He is there….

We as a church are called to love, we are called to turn the other cheek when punched. When Jesus was beaten, spit on, he opened not his mouth…. CRAZY. Ol boy was getting slammed to pieces and still allowed to love to shine. Let us not look at how to “judge the sinner” but let us come together in “loving/covering the sinner”. UH OH UH OH… i hear it already, you are Pro-Gay…. check out what they would have been saying about Mary Magdalene, an alleged hooker as she washed Jesus feet with perfume…. imagine THAT blog…..

Interesting site I came across the other day, {Church Sucks: Take The Challenge} forgot about it and then rediscovered. Great way to find out their community needs and actively meet them. Church Sucks Challenge

As I often flip through the gospels in the Bible, I always enjoy the relevance Jesus brought to the community he was speaking to. Whether it was religious Pharisees or criminals {posted on the left and right of him on the cross} He brought the message into their vernacular.

Fortune 500 companies communicate in Fortune 500 lingo in their boardrooms but are then translated to US… the consumers. Starbucks has names of coffee beans and drinks that no man/woman on this planet could explain and instead translate it to US… the consumers.

Ford motor has built cars since 1903, the worlds 4th largest auto maker. When Ford builds an automobile there are many layers of communication to forge together all parties. This internal communication ultimately welds this machine into existence. When Ford decides to sell US… the consumers, they translate all components of their machine to an understandable language.

clarity + communication = jesus

:: GREAT JOB CHURCHES OF AMERICA ::

What a shock to open up my Macbook, hit {home} and view front page of the New York Time “Opinonator” and read, “Is America becoming a Pro-Life nation”? Of course my curiosity peaked and I scrolled and clicked to read. Apparently Gallop Polls conducted a revised study of Americans views on abortion.

The current views show 51% of America says they are Pro-Life and 42% saying Pro-Choice.

As a church, we must continue this momentum, and show our love of “Life“. The destiny of a life is limitless and a major victory for America embracing Pro-Life. Generation X, Y thanks Generation B (Baby Boomers) for their relentless pursuit of Life.

Here is the link for the NY Times article, check it out…

Most recently I was able to get my hand on an early edition of Hillsong United latest album entitled a_Cross//The_Earth and to my surprise it was just what the doctor ordered.

Such a great site to see a group of Jesus influencers uniting churches locally and globally through the name of Jesus. Does it get any better than that? It is almost the most cheeseball statement you can ever say, but when its true…. its so harrrrrd. People are actually doing this…. it really is possible, question is…. will you join?

i Hate Church publicly applauds the team of Hillsong United, ::starting from the top with Pastor Brian Houston and his leadership team:: along with Joel Houston, Reuben Morgan, Matt Crocker, Sam Knock, Braden Lang & Heather Stevens, Dylan Thomas, Andrew HoodTroy Munns, Brandon Gillies, Benjamin Tennikoff

Now is our time church to root eachother on, to United and mobilize the name of Jesus a_cross//The_earth. Exciting times!! Be sure to download the album from iTunes next week when it launches in the United States.

It’s our turn. …
