To write like I am LOST

I have never been a LOST fan. Mainly because I was in charge of a kids ministry that had programs on Wednesday night and I was unable to get home in time to catch an episode. Every now and then I would watch some, but I was completely clueless as to what was going on [...]

Been out

I think coming off the Daniel Fast caught the best of me…As much as I wanted to eat meat and sweets and the other good stuff, I realized, how much my body didn’t miss those things. I felt good and clean through the fast, and yesterday I felt far from it. I have done many [...]

I have scrolled to the last page…

As I finish up my review for Tim Steven‘s book today, I thought I would give my quick synopsis overall book review.  I am telling you – YOU HAVE TO GET THIS BOOK! Probably one of the best books ever read for church leaders who are serious about taking great risks to reach people far [...]

Pop goes our Church!

Being given the opportunity to review Tim Steven‘s book kind of solidifies everything that is going on in my life right now. As many of you know, I recently transitioned into a new job as Innovative Pastor at GracePoint. The job encompasses a ton of stuff. My main role is to implement a program called [...]

Pop Goes the Church…and more thoughts

I have dived in to Tim’s book. It is probably one of the most timely reads in my personal life and for the life of the church. I think this is definitely a catalyst to the transformation of the modern-day church. I want to take my time and soak this stuff up. So far, this [...]

It’s here!

Kind of ironic the way I feel right now…I will explain in a minute. For those of you that know – about 17 months ago, my son came into this world early (like 2 months early). We were definitely not expecting his arrival and had a ton of mixed emotions about what was going on. [...]

I love to read…

Got an email today that I was pumped for. Not many emails get me this excited. I have been asked to preview, read, and give feedback to Tim Steven’s book. This guy is totally amazing and I have been following his blog for quite some time now. I am able to blog some about the book, so I will [...]

Our staff likes to get “Naked”!

With the fast, the staff has helped come up with creative ways to stay sane. And this drink was introduced to us. They are awesome – especially if you are looking for something sweet. I jumped in on this bandwagon a little late – but it was such a sanity saver!

Thoughts…

I have seen a cop in the same spot all week…usually I am speeding and when I see him I slow down…I get nervous, determined I am going to get pulled over. The cop just sits there. I wonder if this is what grace feels like. I have been thinking that the church needs to [...]

As promised…

We are still working on the sound mix for our internet videos, but as promised, here is probably one of the coolest things to see at church. You just can’t beat rappers and dancers, Jesus Freak, and Mike acting like – uh – Vanilla Ice. I love my job!
