You can’t always get (to) what you want…
It’s Friday night, and typically most of the earth isn’t doing what I’m doing at the moment – which is sitting in a mostly empty prayer room listening to gentle melodies and easy, lilting phrases waft through the room accompanied by a simple keyboard progression and slight guitar accents picking away in the background. To fully grasp the glory of what I am describing, you really should either: a.) Be here or b.) Subscribe to the webcast. The info is elsewhere on this website, but for $10 a month you can stream the prayer room live into your home 24 hours a day. You could leave it on all the time and let night and day prayer transform the atmosphere of your home, your dream life, and actually participate in some of the prayer meetings. Pretty wild, eh? I’ve set it up for some of my friends around the nation, and they are hooked. On a side note you can pretty much always catch me leading the Tuesday 4 PM (to 6 PM, CST) prayer meeting. It’s one of our all-staff prayer meetings, and we generally focus on praying for the salvation of Israel. After that last statement, some of you have two options: read Romans 9-11 or download my notes from the “Meditations from the Prayer Room” part of the website. Whatever is easier for you, though “both” may be helpful to those who are particularly troubled…
Side note about the webcast: in about four months, for that same $10 a month, you will be able to watch a TV-quality webcast, each and every day. I won’t tell the whole story (it’s long, involved, and simply crazy), but we will be changing the look and feel of the prayer room (upgrading the stage, lighting, sound, and cameras) to make it more inviting to those who watch us on our webcast. God TV will be partnering with us significantly in this endeavor – it’s pretty exciting. If you have Direct TV, you can watch us on the God TV network, as they will be doing much programming involving IHOP-KC in the days to come – starting with much of the Onething young adult conference at the end of this month. It’s both great and terrible all at the same time. It’s great for you, mostly terrible for us. I’ll let you read between the lines on that one for now…
Since I’m here in a prayer room on a Friday night with much caffeine coursing through my veins, I thought it would be fun to look back at this past year and do a “Year in Review” for my life and IHOP-KC in general. Then I started going on and on about the webcast. Blogs are weird.
OK – I’ll wrap up this stunning masterpiece of literary genius and get diligently to work on my “Year in Review” post.
