Could one possibly describe the experience of going to New Attitude 2007? It would take so much more than one paragraph ................
Well, it was fantabolous! (yes, i wrote that word on purpose...:-) ) First of all, the worship. Although singing a capella with 3000 other people is an experience in itself - I was never as much aware of those other people, or of myself, than I was aware of my sin, Christ's saving work on the cross, and God's GLORY!!!
The song, Surrender All, was one that really impacted me and convicted me as I sang it out to the Lord.
The messages were all sooo good. When I got home, I said to my mom - " ya, we can listen to messages by C.J. and Josh Harris on the Internet anytime - but being there and seeing the passion that those men have when speaking about the gospel is so poignant! It really challenged me to go to the foot of the cross daily, remembering that God crushed his Son for my sin.
The fellowship - well, what can I say? I pretty much have the coolest friends around. :-)Anyone for some poker?.....with UNO cards for chips? lol
But seriously, being with you guys and talking about what we were all learning about God, or what we learned from the messages, was a time of encouragement for me.
O- and I absolutely loved those sweet bean bag chair things in the neighbourhood!
Car ride home - one of my most memorable car rides yet! Bubble gum rox! And I will never consume aspartame again...
