I wanted to tell you that today's service was inspiring. I really appreciate it when you speak from a Bible passage, Ron, and I thought you handled the topics presented so well. I felt you were gentle and yet clear about what scripture teaches and very brave to open up questions to the congregation. The music was wonderful and built so well through the service to the final duet that spoke the clear message of God's provision for us in Christ. Thank you for the familiar and the new and for pointing us to praise and scripture.

Tyler and Jay's Before the Throne of God was very cool. I just closed my eyes and got transported somewhere. thanks to all.

For what it's worth, I just wanted to give you a little feedback from today. The 'interactive' part of the service where people texted in questions was AWESOME!!!! We were all talking about it in our care group tonight, everyone thought that it was such a great idea, and pastor Ron was so easy-going about the questions and handled them so well. Everyone in our group was VERY impressed. Whoever thought that idea of texting up was really thinking.

The skit was fantastic as was the sermon.
Thanks for all you do, for the high quality that you and your team delivers each week. We really do appreciate your hard work.

I was at the Nine. It was fabulous. Loved "Immortal, Invisible". Great message and great handling of the message. Loved Tyler and Jay's duet. Loved the drama.
One note which I have already mentioned to someone in private: during the message when we were waiting for messages to appear on the screens, there was obviously some problems in the booth. Where I was sitting in the back section just in front of the booth windows, the voices from the booth were quite noticeable. Other folks turned around to see where they were coming from.

Jay always has the quality of 'just visiting and talking with a person' (even though there are hundreds of persons). The band and vocals seemed to have fantastic chemistry. Particularly stand-out was Ron Kincaid's conversational style/approachable message delivery. The text messaged questions (very brave, Ron!) and the sitting on the steps and joking about the next week's message on being a "true man, when I figure out what that is . . " Terrific service! - Melinda Groth
