Claim Who You Are by Efrem Smith

The campaign postcards aren’t over yet. Sure you’ve been inundated with them for the last year. How funny it will be to get one more handed to you by a friend or co-worker this week. 

Thanks to some graphics from GCC, we’re going to be diving into a series called Change We Can Believe In. 

No, it’s not about our excitement over the Obama victory. It’s about you. Your heart. Your growth. Our journey together. We’re making some changes at Sanctuary, and we want to let you know what it’s going to mean for all of us. Through it all, our goal is to help you become fully engaged followers of Christ…and now we’re making strides to help us all get there. 

The Willow Creek Lead Summit is coming up in August. Efrem will be speaking there this year.

They’ve got their website up and running now. You can check out a sample video from Efrem there.

Or check out the introduction from Phil Jackson, who co-wrote the Hip Hop Church book with Efrem.

The Book at Amazon:

Incidently, Phil and Tha House MCs will be at Hip Hop Sunday this month, April 20th 9 & 11am. They blew the roof off last time…Tha House is a ministry led by Phil Jackson birthed out of Lawndale Community Church in Chicago.

I can’t wait to see this:

Maybe there will be a field trip for Hip Hop Academy sometime…

We’re still young. We’re learning. We’re growing.
