Alarming Stats

There are 180,000 people within 5 miles of my church…70% of these people don’t know Jesus…we have a ton of work to do!

The “One”

I’m asking my students tonight to begin praying about one of their friends that doesn’t know Jesus.  This will be a friend that they would like to see begin a relationship with Jesus during this school year.  I’m trying to stress to my kids that they play a vital role in their friends decisions about [...]

Good Reminder

Why is it that in the world when someone messes up, we determine that it is our responsibility to judge, condemn, and crucify them?  We have the tendency as “Christians” to come down harder on people than “non-christians” do.  We don’t understand that HIS grace found us just as we were and HIS grace can find someone [...]

Big Idea

So, I came back from camp last week with my students and we flat out got our flippin world rocked.  Chris Tomlin lead us in worship each day and we were taught by Louie Giglio…Both of these guys are awesome!  I’ve been chewing on a lot of stuff that Louie said last week and I’ll [...]

Are we ready?

We Made It

We finally made it to New Orleans earlier this afternoon and I’m looking forward to a great week here…..Here are a few of my expectations of the week…
-I want to grow closer to God–I need to be on top of my game in my relationship with Jesus and weeks like these always help me in that [...]

I’m struggling right now

I’m on my soap box I guess…
I have been wrestling recently with an idea that I feel like is tearing churches apart.  I even asked my wife this morning about it.  I asked, “why do we as christians judge people more or look down our noses at people more than those who aren’t christians?”  That [...]

Thursday Throwdown

-I’m late getting this up because I was at a school all day today spreading some mulch and cleaning up their nature trail.  It was friggin hot but it was actually peaceful.  I was out their by myself in the woods just hanging out, me and God, and the bees that kept attacking me.  I was [...]
