Box Score for August 26, 2007

Here’s the "box score" for this Sunday at NewSpring Church.

Music:
"What I’ve Done" by Linkin Park; Check out the rest of the setlist on Lee’s blog

Message: "Knock, Knock" — Perry Noble,
Senior Pastor, challenged us to consider the person, the pursuit and the promise contained within Revelation 3:20: "Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and
opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me." Over 100 people received Christ in response to this message.

Service Highlights: Well, anytime the service begins with a DJ and a little hip-hop, you know it’s going to be a great service. Aside from that, the band rocked out with the Linkin Park song. I don’t know much about Linkin Park, but that song really set up Perry’s message on receiving Christ. "So let mercy come and wash away what I’ve done."

Stats: 9,147 total attendance; 3,378 person increase (58.6%) from the same weekend last year

Final Notes: Perry noted on his blog that almost 800 people (that we know of) received Christ during this series. Amazing! And, we’re also seeing hundreds of people continue their spiritual journey by connecting in home groups. More on that in the coming days.
