Sunday Song: Sweet Hour of Prayer

Passion 2012

Passion 2012 has taken over the Atlanta Georgia Dome! Young people ranging in age from 18-25... 45,000 of them... have taken over the city of Atlanta this week. I volunteered two years ago for this awesome event, and left forever changed. You can watch the live stream of the events this week on the Passion website. Here is the link:

I hope you all will be able to stream in for one or all of the sessions. Louie Giglio, John Piper, Francis Chan, Beth Moore are just a few of the amazing friends who help lead worship during Passion. You can check out all the others here.

This year's theme is "A Generation United for Freedom." The goal is to raise $1,000,000 to fund organizations that are fighting to bring prevention, freedom, and restoration to those trapped in slavery. Awesome to see young people (18-25) give so freely of their resources to help others when our nation struggles daily with selfishness and greed. You can learn more about donating if you feel so led here.

You can learn more about the Passion conferences here.

This morning while eating breakfast with my six-year old nephew at Chick-Fil-A in our hometown, several car loads of young people entered the establishment. They sat at the tables surrounding us and I could hear them talking about "passion." When we started to leave, I turned around and asked if they were headed to Atlanta to the Passion conference. I got an overwhelming response from these young people who begin eagerly asking how I knew about Passion. I was able to share my volunteer experience from 2009. Awesome to connect with them this morning (and I am praying specifically for this group... Yay God for giving me a part in the 2012 Passion conference even though I'm not able to volunteer!)

I am praying for our God to show up in a BIG way this week in Atlanta and in the hearts of those 45,000 young people in attendance and all the volunteers working behind the scenes being "door keepers."

"Better is one day in your court than a thousand elsewhere; I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked."

Psalm 84:10
