More on Rusaw

First Christian sponsored another Q and A with Rick Rusaw this morning (thanks, FCCJC, for all of the work your staff did to put the convention together). I was surprised to learn that Rusaw once attended worship at Grandview when he was in town (don't know if he liked it or not).

The fire alarm went off in the middle of this event as well! I took a video of everybody exiting the facility, but then I figured nobody wants to watch THAT video, not even in fast motion.

My favorite thing that Rusaw said? Probably that Lifebridge doesn't do the "happy Jesus" thing when they are serving the community. "We don't wear Lifebridge t-shirts, or 'turn or burn' t-shirts. We just serve in Christlike love and let God do the math. We want to be there with non-Christians when the pivotal moments in life arrive. We want to be present when it counts and already have a relationship of trust in place when people find themselves open to God."

That's not an exact quote ... but I'm working from memory here.Here is the Johnson City brain trust. Robbie Phillips from Harrison Christian Church, John Marr from Grandview, Mike Imboden from First, and (of course) Rusaw.Here is Tim Wallingford (our host), who did a great job leading the charge to bring Rusaw to Johnson City. Thanks, Tim.
