If you haven't heard, we announced last night that the Well is moving to two services. Some might say..."Two services?? Are you joking?", my answer to that, "We are as serious as rattlesnake bites on the foot of Ms. America contestants." Because of space and number constraints, the best decision to make is to move to two services. As great as the first two weeks were, amazing would be a better word, there is still more that God wants to do here. There are still 24000 students who are left? Are you in? God is moving in a mighty way and we want to see Him touch the lives of every student here. How will you be apart? Which service will you be apart of? How can you do life with people around you?

One Overwhelming Night!
It's about 4:20pm on Thursday afternoon. We've had many conversations with you guys about what we each experienced last night at The Well. Never in a million years would we have imagined having over 1,000 students at The Well. Yet more than that, the thing that I can't get over is the movement of God in our midst. I have never seen the things we are seeing right now.
Our hope is that we would continue to move forward with God. Is this going to involve changing the way we do ministry? Yes! Is this going to involve sacrifice for all of us? Yes! Do we hope that each of us are willing to do whatever it takes to see this movement go forward? Of Course we do!
As we continue to soak in this historic moment, may our hearts be glad and may we set our gaze ahead as we seek to be the kind of people that hear and obey the One who has called us to follow.
I love you guys,
Ben

IT IS HERE!!!
What an amazing day we had yesterday. I don't even know if amazing is the right word for it. Mind-blowing...but is that two words or one? God just completely blew us away yesterday starting with the new 9:45 service. This was an amazing time just to see students, professionals, young adults and families come together to worship in what was something new for Calvary. The band sounded incredible and God's Word was proclaimed. I hope you were there to experience it first hand. If not, check it out next week. This is going to be a crazy week for all of us but I hope you are able to come out to the Well this Wednesday night at 8 pm. We are kicking off another school year so get excited. If not for classes then at least for the Well that night. Tell your friends, bring them along and come see what's going on at Calvary.
