Monday night we had hundreds of men gather at NorthWood to hear John Garret - a coach for the Dallas Cowboys, Dat Nguyen - former linebacker for the Cowboys and now coach, Pat Combs - former pitcher for the Philadelphia Philley’s and NorthWood member, and John Tolson.  It was just awesome! 

Because of NorthWood’s invovlement in Vietnam having Dat at our church was a special treat.  I got to show him around, the Vietnamese architecture and paintings - all of that.  He got to meet Sherman and Phuc as well as a lot of other people. 

We have had 3 gatherings like this where 3 of us as churches came together, John spoke, and many people have given their hearts to Christ.  John has a book called the Four Priorities.  Many of the men will wind up going through it.  This book is written to help make disciples in small group formats of men.  I’m really excited about it.  I like what John does because he bridges the gap between evangelism and discipleship - there is no gap, it’s the same conversation.  Thanks John for an incredible experience and some fun days ahead!
