Looking for Hope in the House of Blues

houseofblues

This weekend I’m in Charlotte with some of the Church Solutions Group team helping Lake Forest Church celebrate the grand opening of their new worship space and the kickoff of their “Hope in the House of Blues” series featuring gospel and blues artist Mike Farris and best-selling author and speaker Donald Miller. Needless to say it’s a big weekend for them and I’m excited to be here.

Read more about Lake Forest’s story here.

Lake Forest is hosting a leadership weekend congruent with the other festivities, welcoming pastors and church leaders from 11 different ministries and churches across the Charlotte area.

The goal of the weekend is to remind leaders of the power of hope and the fact that we need to not only cherish it but share it with those who do not have it yet.

I’ll be blogging notes from those sessions.

“Hope in the House of Blues” is an annual series hosted by Lake Forest addressing hurt, hate, hope and healing with an inspiring, blues-based musical backdrop. Lake Forest has literally built a ‘house of blues’ in their foyer! Pretty wild.

Stay tuned throughout the weekend for updates.

Thanks to Pastor Mike Moses and his team for the opportunity to hang with them and to see first-hand the great things that are happening here.
