This is my last post for about a week (I know some of think that’s about all I post anyway, but I do go about 4 times a week with lots of twittering in between. Anyway… We’re headed to the beach tomorrow. Actually, Sonja and Abby are headed down tomorrow, Seth and I will be [...]
I read a lot of blogs… actually I used to read a lot of blogs… but I’ve had to cut it down to about 20 people that I have personal ties to or they speak truth into my life and challenge and stretch me as a leader. One guy that does all of that is [...]
Seth's all star team got a beat down on Monday night. They were all pretty bummed but had to finish the tournament last night. They won 28-13… no they weren't playing football! They scored 28 runs. Seth had a career night at the plate going 3 for 3 with 2 home runs! I'm glad he [...]
This Week's One Prayer message by Steven Furtick is KICKING! I am praying for this Sunday to be one of the greatest Sundays in the life of our church. I believe God's going to show up in power and do things that will RADICALLY IMPACT OUR CITY AND OUR CHURCH. I am FIRED UP!
Great Sunday! One Prayer series is kicking! The band sounded great today. I'm really loving Jason Morant's song– "Make Us One". It really sets the tone for the series. We had air conditioning today in our children's area! We had a bunch of first timers to balance out our regulars who were on vacation. [...]
I'm reading "The Attentive Life" by Leighton Ford… Deep Book… I was captured by the title and the subtitle: "Discerning God's presence in All things." If there is anything I believe I need it's to pay attention. I love to read, but books like this are tough… They are deep, contemplative, and use big words… [...]
I've actually been up since 2… Not sure if it was God or the whole bag of roasted peanuts I ate a Seth's baseball game last night… but I thought I'd make it productive… I spent some time praying, listening and discerning what God wants to say to our church. It would be easy to [...]
I'm absolutely devouring the book of Exodus and life and ministry of Moses. I've read it all before several times, I've seen the movies (The 10 Commandments and Prince of Egypt) but this time God is revealing some things in some fresh ways. I love it when God does that… it reminds me to not [...]
I have to admit that I was a little concerned how our church would receive video teaching, but it was awesome. Craig Groschel "brought it" via video as we heard his One Prayer for the church– Lord, make us One! God really moved yesterday… there was lots of laughter, I heard people speaking back to [...]
That's what I have planned today… Today is the day set aside in our One Prayer schedule to pray for our church and the services this weekend. I'm praying BIG that God would do something that has never been done before and will impact lives like never before. I just got back from the doctor's [...]
