a word from pastor dave....January 24, 2005

Last night I was with Winter Jam in Knoxville, TN and all I can say is, it was insane. 

With seating capacity at 5600, they did not want to turn anyone away so they let as many as they could in and they went to around 6,700, Eleven hundred over the amount.  I would say that over 1000 people stood 3 hours threw the whole show.  It was truly amazing and also with over 50 people making a decision for Christ during the invitation there would have been more but it was hard for people to move around because of such a large crowd. Last year over 5000 decisions were made for Christ during Winter Jam, and they are on track for even a bigger response, and much praise goes to Christ for this happening.  Last year was the biggest attendance in the history of Winter Jam and if this tour keeps going the way it is, this will by far surpass last year.  Don't miss this awesome line up. 

I had a great time spending time with Toby, Tait, Newsong, Rachael, Over Flow made a surprise appearance, and Building 429.  I look forward to seeing more of what God is going to do during this tour, please keep everyone in much prayer as they travel from town to town, but also for the purity of the tour.  That is brings much praise and glory to Christ.
 
Thanks for your time and much love to you all in the name of our Savior, Jesus Christ
