Over the last 4 weeks we've been going through a sermon series entitled "REVIVAL, What Door Is God Behind". And in each week of this series there was a main point I wanted you to remember. Let me recap them for you
Week #1 – Revival comes when we stop listening for the knock at the door and start listening for the voice of God and open that door.
Revelations 3:20 (NLT)
20 Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.
Week #2 – Revival comes when we stop focusing on our little strength and start focusing on the open door God has set before us.
Revelations 3:7 (NKJV)
…See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.
Week #3 – Revival comes when we stop focusing on what we don’t have and get passionate about what we do have
Acts 3:6 (NLT)
6 But Peter said, “I don’t have any silver or gold for you. But I’ll give you what I have. In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, get up and walk!”
Week #4 - Revival comes when we get God back in the center of our lives, our church and our families.
2 Samuel 6:12-15 (NLT)
12 Then King David was told, “The LORD has blessed Obed-edom’s household and everything he has because of the Ark of God.” So David went there and brought the Ark of God from the house of Obed-edom to the City of David with a great celebration.
As you read those 4 main points again, which one do you feel God is challenging you with in his pursuit to bring revival back into your life or our church?

Building Update 2
alright, we moved everything out of the Stowe Dr offices and over to the new building. This means all of our functions and meetings will now be held at 9899 Hibert St, San Diego Ca 92131. Many thanks to Boyer Moving and Storage for sending over 3 trucks and lots of workers. They did in a few hours what would have taken us days. Now the tedious work of navigating our way through the city of San Diego planning department to obtain a Conditional Use Permit. Then we will finally be able to to hold services at our new permanent location.
Here's what we've discovered so far.
1. Our Architect, Peter Trevino, met with one of the city of San Diego planning engineers to learn more about the codes governing the installation of fire sprinklers. Here's what we learned, to prevent us from having to spend tens of thousands of dollars we will need to keep the large room we will use for our sanctuary under 2100 sq feet. attached is a layout of the building we will use for our sanctuary, offices, cafe. You'll notice the large room comes in right under that number at 2094 sq feet.
2. Our permit consultant, Brian Longmore, who is assisting us through the CUP process has assured us that if all goes smoothly we should be able to get the Conditional Use Permit by the end of 2011. That seems like a long time, but as we all know, it will be here quickly.
In closing, I encourage all of you to join me in "The Call" to prayer. start making it a part of your daily routine to find someone to agree together with in prayer. "The Call" is basically this: It's each of us living out Matthew 18:19-20 19 “I also tell you this: If two of you agree here on earth concerning anything you ask, my Father in heaven will do it for you. 20 For where two or three gather together as my followers, I am there among them.” When you feel the call to prayer, ask someone to join you. And let's begin to claim and call down Gods blessings and promises on our church.
God bless church
