I’ve decided that Fridays are going to be the day I share with you some infinite wisdom… of course it’s not my own… but I read a lot of blogs from a lot of leaders and while you may or may not know their names, they are influencing many for the cause of Christ.  I [...]

Today is the first day of school in Auburn.  There’s something about the first day of school that is exciting…even though the summer holiday is over, there is an anticipation, a freshness, everything is new.  I remember as a kid, getting school supplies… there’s nothing like busting open the new pack of crayolas!  or sharpening [...]

Yesterday was a fun day at Journey– a lot of it had to do with the A/C working a little better in the Worship Center! We had guests come back… that’s always a good sign that we didn’t weird them out too much! We had more first time guests yesterday– one of them I ran [...]

I have to admit– I love being around people.  It charges me up to be in a crowd… that’s the way I’m wired.  So, when I talked last Sunday about some of the Spiritual Disciplines, you would think Solitude would be very difficult for me to practice.  You would be right.  At least at first, [...]

I’m back after a week away from blogging.

My friends Shawn Lovejoy and David Putman founded Churchplanters.com a few years ago… one of the taglines of this organization is “Giving You Permission“.  That simply means that church planters and leaders don’t have to wait around and wonder if we can do this or can’t do that… we have permission through our calling and [...]

This past Sunday I challenged our church to Grow by Applying the Truth of Scripture and Biblical Teaching to their lives.  That’s one of the 5 things that grow our faith… Something that I said that was not really a “major” point in the message has really been rolling around in my mind the last [...]

I’m absolutely loving what God is doing in this series- 5 Things to Grow your Faith. It was great seeing new faces and friends back that we haven’t seen in a while. I could really sense God moving through the entire service this morning. The big challenge we gave everyone today— Read the Sermon on [...]

We had Baby Dedication this past Sunday at Journey Church.  We had an opportunity to celebrate with 2 families who welcomed new babies into the world… this picture has become one of my favorite– I was talking about how the moms and dads were charged with raising their babies to love and serve Jesus and I [...]
