Throw More Parties!

I can't help but agree that Chris Tomlin's song "Party" is a little chessy...but...I love the spirit of it enough that I let the song play through when it pops up on my ipod. One of the best pieces of advice that I received early on was simply put, "Throw more Parties." Church planting really comes down to meeting people and connecting those people to one another. They may connect with you early on but if they don't connect with one another they will drift off. One of the best investments you can make is in food. Now...you can do that can't you! Loren Cunningham (founder of YWAM) recently shared with us this insight, "In the gospels we see Jesus relating with people around food at least 13 times." Bring on the hot wings boys, let's plant a church!

Yes...good stuff. Food is a good thing for community.

But I have to take issue with you Lance. The song "Party"...let's just say it's a song that should of never made its way onto a CD. It's simply the worst song to ever be placed on a passion CD ever. I'm sure it was a "moment" thing when it was done live...but it doesn't translate well to those who weren't there.
