I remember when we first started doing P.O.

here at New Spring Church.

We had staff running around going,

we didn't used to have to do P.O.

We didn't used to have to do P.

And I got them all in the room.

I was like, it's because we used to not have any freaking money.

That's why we didn't have to do P.O's. Seriously. I remember being in a closet in the fine arts, in the Sullivan Building of

Anderson University counting money. I was back there every week and you say why? Because I wanted to

get paid that's why and I would be like all right there's Mr Thompson and I know

he's gonna bring $75 and that's what he ties. If somebody, if a toddler missed

church, I called him. Hey, I missed you this week. You gonna double up? I mean, I, I

didn't even ask if they were sick.

See, here's what I know. There's a lot of guys and there's a lot of gals out there

when it comes to your church and it growing you use money as an excuse and

you'll come to a facility like this and you'll go if I had all this I could grow

let me ask you a question you think this dropped out of the freaking sky?

You think that youth building we just went out and there and prayed about it?

Dear God we'd love a youth building we just went out and there and prayed about it?

Dear God, we'd love a youth building.

Dang!

I mean, do you think that's how it happened?
