Look what arrived in my mailbox this morning! We’re hoping this postcard will cause many who’ve not thought about attending church in a long time to hear something unexpected. The postcard leads them to this page on our web site, where they can download samples of our worship music. Perhaps if they like our music,…

Last Sunday was pretty cool. There was a definite buzz at Access Church. Perhaps because we’re now meeting every Sunday, or maybe because it was the first Sunday of the new school year. Either way, we had 10 first-time families register children in Waumba Land and UpStreet. That’s pretty cool! We refer to Sunday mornings…

We had a great service programming meeting yesterday. It was more relaxed than I expected, because even though we’re doing back-to-back Sundays for the rest of our lives, Darin and Kevin are way out ahead of the curve and we’re talking about November and December, not next week.

Don’t wait another minute to register for Catalyst 2008. This could be the year it sells out Gwinnet Arena!

At the beginning of July we announced a contest to “Go Orange” this summer. Some Accessibles have taken the challenge quite seriously—especially the part in the rules about bribing the judges with food (it’s allowed). The deadline for the contest is this weekend. Send in your pics & videos now to be considered for the…

Evidently I’m the last guy on the block to blog about this. Two of our very-awesome Access worship leaders, Abner Ramirez & Amanda Sudano, have released a new album! We love these two for so many reasons. First, because they really love God and desire to lead us in giving him the worship he deserves.…

A few months ago, Access Church linked arms with JT Townsend and his family for what we called The Intersect Project. If you missed it you can see the FOX/CBS news story here. Now it’s time to bring this project to completion so that the Townsend family can sell their home and move into a…
