Not Your Ordinary Blog:

We have a bunch of bloggers: writers, teachers, photographers, students,
foreign correspondents, musicians, poets and friends.

They're thinking deep thoughts... and occasionally will put hand to computer to share those thoughts with you.  We also use our blog for announcements and some housekeeping items...
but scroll through and read a few posts, you will be delighted.

Then leave us a comment, or send us an email - we'd love to hear from you too!

A Good Day ~Greg J

Here is how I know I have had a good day.

  • In speaking and writing, I have said less than I thought to say.
  • In compassion, I have given more than I first purposed to give.
  • In thinking, I have focused more outside than inside.
  • In eating and other pleasures, I have enjoyed smaller but better portions than were convenient.
  • In gratitude, I have expressed thanks to those who brought me more work.
  • Finally, even if I have failed to do many of these things, I still count it a good day if I remember God's goodness to me.

How about you?

Good morning Surgeons!

We're closing out our At the Movies series this morning, with The Avengers!

Special music today is Soundgarden, Live to Rise.

Men's breakfast yesterday was a rousing success! Pancakes were eaten :)

As we head into spring, be aware of our Spring push... we're ramping up into Easter, we have another round of cards going out and it's a great time to invite family and friends.

We need help on the tech team!  This is the group that assists with lighting, slides, video preparation!  If interested contact E Reiss and he will get you connected.

Next week we're starting our new series, Vanity Fair and we'll be digging into Ecclesiates and life lessons.

See you soon!

Good morning all,

We're continuing our At the Movies series, with The Hunger Games.  Watching the movie, it reminded me of my days in public school... but hopefully this morning the kids won't have to shoot anyone to get a snack.

We're going unplugged today... with an acoustic offering for worship... will be different and fun.

Special music is "Come Away to the Water" by Maroon 5.

Great concert last night featuring the music of Susan Greenbaum, it was an amazing concert.

The Yoga Center is expanding hours! Get your relaxing, healthy, yogarrific classes here! And check the Calendar for the latest times and classes.

Our Men's Breakfast, hosted by Terry Forrester, will be 8:30am this Saturday, Feb 23rd.

Finishing up our Movie Series this next week, with The Avengers! Don't miss it!

Thanks,
~The Surge

    Our Writers:

    At The Surge we love doing things together... that includes writing a blog!  Here are a few of our main contributing authors:

    Greg Johnson

    Jesus++
    Me--

    Dwaine Darrah

    Our fearless leader, Dwaine is the lead pastor at The Surge.  His experience in counter terrorism with the CIA prepared him for ministry and he likes dogs and babies even more than E does.

    E

    E (short for Eric Reiss) is the Wingman at The Surge and likes dogs, music, Mexican food, his wife Karen and his little girl Evangeline... not necessarily in that order.
