Positive Post Tuesday: SE
Today I believe to be my first venture into “Positive Post Tuesday”. So here it goes. I first want to make a disclaimer and say that this post will be centered around “The Well”, but it will most likely jump around quite a bit.
I have had the pleasure being a part of the launch team for The Well’s South East Campus. We started a campus at Sunnyside High School about 5 months ago and it has been a joy. The team that was assembled for this task is stellar and has really put 110% into everything they do. I has been a lot of work without really getting a break, but that pales [not sure if this is the correct spelling/usage, but you know what I mean] in comparison to the stories that have come out in the last 5 months. There are really too many people to list, but I want to highlight just a few.
First is the campus pastor, Dave Obwald. Dave is the figurative glue that has held all our crazy personalities/ideas together. In his “harmonizing” way he has guided this leadership team well!
The second is the engineering team. Obwald asked me to lead this team when we started SE. I was really nervous/lacking confidence at this task, but my team has been stellar. This team consists of Corbin, Dave W, Joel, Max, Art. As part of the engineering team, these guys were asked to come early and stay late. It has been awesome to get to know each of them and just get to serve the church alongside them.
Last note. I have been really blessed by the message the past months. We are going through the book of John and have gone through the death and resurrection the last few weeks. Brad and the teaching team have really brought the book of John to life in ways that I have not really thought of before. And the beauty of the Word is even if you hear it through video teaching [this is the setup at SE] or live, the message of Christ stays the same!
