Luckily I found a last second sitter and we were off for a date night!
Running late because the church it was at was in the middle of nowhere- we finally made it and were able to enjoy the show.
yes I know my camera is horrible...
Jason Gray was up first. This was the third time we have seen him and he is a talented songwriter and singer. He has a speech impediment (stutter) and it's always inspirational to see how God uses people not in spite of their weakness, but because of them (Jason's words, not mine). He had a really great point he talked about on stage about when a person is impressive then you are "impressed with their impressiveness" but when a person is broken and God uses them- then you are impressed by God's glory. It's God you see then, not the person. Got me thinking.
Oh and he's witty. Gotta love wit.
Next up- Laura Story. She sang her famous song "Blessings" with SCC. Here's a link if you haven't heard it. Her story is always heartbreaking to hear but they are overcoming it. Her husband had brain surgery 2 years after they were married and it's been a tough road.
THEN TIME FOR SCC!!!!
Afterwards we got to chat with SCC for a minute. Thankfully he's been rambling (looong rambles) on facebook so I had some fun things to talk to him about (like his pumpkin carvings) He was very nice and it was a privilege to meet him.
He's a wonderful example of someone who uses their talent for Christ, uses their fame to change other people's lives for the best, and keeps their priorities straight despite of fame and publicity.
It was a great date- thanks for inviting us Annie!
