Christmas Eve
It's 11:00 on Christmas Eve. We held 11 services this weekend at RiverTree. Somewhere between 5,000 and 6,000 people heard the Good News that God loves them.
My wife, Julie, and I are exhausted . . . in a very good kind of way.
We just danced in front of our fireplace. We do that every Christmas Eve.
15 years ago, when we had just one Christmas Eve service in a much smaller auditorium, I asked Julie to marry me. And here we are today.
Our song is "True Companion" by Mark Cohn. And for the past 13 years of marriage, every Christmas Eve, we play our song--and we dance.
I think there is dancing in heaven tonight.

Merry Christmas.
Thank-you to the entire Rivertree Team for the hard work and dedication. And especially, thanks to Pastor Greg and Julie. Your missionary vision and compassion for the underpriveldged inspires me and my family. Keep it up, Pastor. It is God's work.
Hey Greg,
I'm thinking.......
11 services plus all of your hard work equals a very high "roar of love" quotient.
Thanks for all of the love put into your hard work......we feel the roar.
Merry Christmas!
I am proud to be a partner of Rivertree and take this weekend and make it grow. For Tammy and I it will have been 18 years ago at the Christmas Boat Parade in Newport Beach CA I proposed and we were married New Year's Eve.
