Audra and I were talking this evening and she brought up an interesting point. I observed how interesting and unplanned it was that the kids, the youth, the mens study and the womens bible study all were studying Ephesians 6. If you are unfamiliar with it. “10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength ofContinue reading “Get ready for battle”

It’s been a good week
The psalmist writes “…weeping may tarry for the night but JOY comes in the morning.” I tend to write a lot about dealing with struggles. I don’t know if I have a proclivity towards darkness or if it is typically when people struggle that they reach out to a pastor for help thus the reasonContinue reading “It’s been a good week”
Planning in a Pandemic
So…for churches, businesses and organizations this is the time to finalize vision, plans and budgets for 2021. I don’t know about you but this is the hardest year I have ever had to do it. We can all admit that 2020 has been a dumpster fire and if you read my post “HOLD ON” 2021Continue reading “Planning in a Pandemic”
Leading during the dry seasons
Have you ever seen those leaders who just seem to always be “on”. They seem to have an endless amount of energy, inspiration and drive. There may be some people who can live that way however they usually have a trail of broken relationships behind them. Like anyone leaders life journey has seasons of highsContinue reading “Leading during the dry seasons”
Hold on tight…
The running joke lately is about what a crummy year 2020 has been…when you think back about all those 2020 vision jokes, nobody saw this coming! I have been praying and seeking the Lord and watching people online and I want to tell you something…there is nothing that the turn of a calendar is goingContinue reading “Hold on tight…”
I choose to stand
It is a popular thing these days to kneel in protest…from Kaepernick kneeling at the anthem to Pelosi and the democrats kneeling at the house steps. Besides the fact this is just a bunch of white folk virtue signaling I don’t understand the imagery. Kneeling is a sign of surrender. When a man is knightedContinue reading “I choose to stand”
It takes the whole body
Do you know your enneagram number? My wife made me take the test but I don’t remember what I am. Maybe you have worked for a company and they made you take the Myers-Briggs test…funny I took it recently, I used to be INFJ, now I am ENFJ. My point is for years an importantContinue reading “It takes the whole body”
18 months
This Sunday I will be preaching on Luke 9:1-6, in this passage Jesus sends out his disciples to heal the sick and proclaim the Kingdom of God. Amazing when you think that this marks the halfway mark of Jesus’ ministry. His public ministry only lasted 3 years! Telling that at this turning point he beganContinue reading “18 months”
How beautiful are the mountains
Isaiah 52:7 “How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, “Your God reigns!” Last week I was blessed to take the family up to the mountains of Tennessee. I will admit it was a muchContinue reading “How beautiful are the mountains”
Years from now…
Even as a pastor I am not one for hyperbole. However, to look at the political landscape both nationally and internationally it rightfully causes concern. For over 200 years we have been a nation, though flawed, with a freedom to speak our minds and share the gospel. Over the last twenty years we have enteredContinue reading “Years from now…”
