Okay, some of you may find this a little unusual, but we went to church 3 times yesterday. It was awesome. Our first service was at what has been our home church here - Shades Mountain Independent. We are part of an amazing Sunday School Class and the kids just love their classes too. It's so nice to hear them chattering after class about how much they learned and how much they enjoyed it. For the Worship Service the Sr. Pastor was away. The Worship/Music Pastor preached. He always does an amazing job by bringing together a choir, orchestra, and soloists in a worshipful way, but who would have known he's an awesome preacher too. His name is Kevin Moore and the sermon is really worth hearing...it should show up here eventually. He used a great example of showing mercy...see the video clip here.
After church we grabbed lunch and did some shopping, and then made our way to Red Mountain Church for the 4:00 pm service. We heard about this church due to its music. For some samples go here. They only sing old hymns (like 1800's old) but have set them all to very contemporary music. They are also very liturgical, which provides for a clear focus during worship. We loved it as well.
From there we headed back to Shades Mtn. for the evening prayer service. An amazing day. All this week the kids are either volunteering or participating at Day Camp/Vacation Bible School at Shades Mtn. While we're happy to call GBC home, there are some awesome churches in Birmingham!!
