Jennifer and I went to the Hello LOVE tour in Baltimore on Saturday night. Before that we had dinner with friends at a great Italian restaurant downtown. Here are some highlights along with some of my thoughts:
- Israel Houghton & New Breed are extremely talented artists. I had never heard their music before but was amazed at their hearts and their talent.
-
It's always great going to a night of worship like that in Baltimore. While I'm fortunate to be a part of a church that's reaching people who are not a part of any church, there are hundreds of thousands of people in Baltimore (city & county) who don't know their creator. Nights like Saturday night remind me of the thousands of people in Baltimore who are running after God with all their heart. A great reminder when the landscape sometimes looks bleak in terms of the local church.

Louie Giglio was there. My brother in-law texted me to let me know, at which point Jennifer decided to confirm it was him. At the intermission our group went to the back to see him, and Lisa got her picture with him. After that he took off, and I wouldn't blame him because we probably looked like a mob.
- They talked a lot about One Million Can. I'll probably right a whole post about that soon.
- Jennifer and I were parked in the garage that's a part of the arena, and it took us 50 minutes to get out. We literally didn't move an inch for 25 minutes.
50 minutes huh? That’s we left when they brought Israel back up. Gotta be one step ahead of the game B-more.
I was at this concert with a couple friends and I must say it was amazing! The holy spirt was definately in the house. Chris Tomlin is very gifted!
What a great night. I was re-inspired! I want to do whatever it takes to multiply the 7000 that were there that night and help Baltimore become a city of people that run after God with all their heart. Thanks for the shout out. So much fun.
