Scott Smith: The Bestest Speaker Dude
At 6:15 Jamie,Mom and I went to hear Scott Smith speak a sermon at SCBC. When we got there the place was already packed with people talking and laughing. On the way up to where we were sitting I saw Jesse or was it Josh(See they are identical twins and they are hard to tell apart)? I saw a bunch of other people but I probably wouldn't be able to name them all!!! Anyway we sat down where Mrs. O saved us some seats. Finally Mrs. O along with her daughter came and sat next to us. Lauren ( who is five) sat in my lap most of the time and I sat by my Mom while she was sitting next to me Mrs. O was sitting on her other side.Then the whole congregation sang three or more songs. Lauren stood up on the pew so she could see and so I think so she would be able to play with my hair. Soon after we sang we sat down and listened to the choir sing "Blessed Be The Name Of The Lord". If there was a contest between BPBC's choir and SCBC"s choir,SCBC would DEFINITELY blow us out of the water!!! I think my church's choir needs some lady's who aren't in the highest key you could hit. Personally I think most of the lady's in our choir except for a few here in there, have a seriously high pitched singing voice. Anyway after the choir sang the lead singer dude asked the people who are members of SCBC to stand just to see who was not so that SCBC people could greet them. I absolutely hate when they do stuff like that cause it makes me wish I was back there and not where I am but o'well God is in the details. Soon afterward we sang a song and sat down. Of course we prayed before we heard the preaching. Then Scott Smith started preaching. Normally I wouldn't enjoy listening to a preacher and just sit there and be bored but Scott Smith makes his sermon's funny and interesting!!! Mr. Smith spoke about giving of money to church. It was very good and it was pretty funny. Towards the last half hour Lauren's head ended up resting in my lap asleep. I seriously don't think I could sleep through Scott Smith's sermons. They are always so funny and awfully loud at times!!! So anyway when Mr. O needed to get out of the pew she had to climb over my legs because I couldn't move my legs from the bottom of the pew in front of me due to the fact that I didn't want to wake up Lauren. By the last song I was praying that we would finish soon because my butt was getting numb all to the fact I was sitting in a certain position for like a half hour. Although that happened I still enjoyed it all. After the service I saw Kimmie (My BFF). We talked together for a while, I met her Youth Pastor who was very nice. Sooner than it seemed I had to go home. I was sort of sad when I got home due to the fact that I missed "Extreme Home Makeover How'd They Do That" but I guess it is better to be at Church than to be vegetating in front of the TV.
