Well, it was an amazing night. The music was wonderful, and it's always an incredible experience to be with a large number of people in worship. (I'm guessing that there were about 3,000 people there.)
Jeremy Camp was terrific - we just love his music. After Mercy Me performed a couple of songs, Bart (the lead singer) spoke for several minutes, relaying the eventful year his family had in 2004. It started with his brother-in-law being killed in a car crash, then went to his second child being born 6 weeks premature, then to his 3 year old son being diagnosed with Type A diabetes. Lastly, he spoke of his father-in-law's brain cancer and subsequent surgery. The clincher was when Bart said "What better way to end 2004 than with the successful completion of brain surgery?" Already a very poignant moment, Tara promptly burst into tears, and was inconsolable for several minutes. We were all hugging each other, and just thanking God for what we have. Guess you had to be there to appreciate the moment, but it was pretty incredible.
Yes Mar, hearing "I Can Only Imagine" was beyond description. Definitely a concert I'll never forget . . . . .
