This was one of my strangest Easters . . . EVER.

For the first time in 25 years I was not preaching on Easter weekend. Heading into the holiday celebration I fought depression and even questioned my move to full-time as President of Stadia.

I prayed for RiverTree to have record attendance. There is nothing I want more than to see the church I served exceed where I was able to lead.

RiverTree had more than 6,000 people attend her five campuses!

And then Monday happened . . .

Reports from across the U.S. streamed in from Stadia church plants. Attendance figures, baptisms, stories of life-transformation.

More than 60,000 people were part of Stadia church plants this past Easter weekend!

I am so thankful that God has allowed me to be part of such an amazing church planting family. So thankful for the church planters, networks, team members that blessed so many.  And on a personal note . . . blessed me with an Easter beyond my wildest imagination.
