Our Christmas Eve Service is Cancelled, due to snow.
But that doesn’t mean you can’t celebrate Christ’s Birth.
Enjoy

Preaching on Sunday 12-28-08
22 DecLately I have been privileged to speak on the last Sunday of the year. I like to take this particular Sunday and try to talk about the mission of God, the church. This year the title is The Year Of Living Missionally, not a great title but it works.
I want to help Creekside become more that a gathering place, I want to see Creekside become a sending place.
I came across this video, it’s a great video, but I’ve been unable to get a high quality version of it, so I won’t be using it on Sunday. But I wanted to share it, so I guess that’s what the blog is for.
I know I’ve been posting a lot of videos here. And that can be annoying, for some of us, but I like videos, and my brain has been pretty tired lately.
Eugene Peterson on pastoring
22 Dec“The pastor’s question is, “Who are these particular people, and how can I be with them in such a way that they can become what God is making them?” My job is simply to be there, teaching, preaching Scripture as well as I can, and being honest with them, not doing anything to interfere with what the Spirit is shaping in them. Could God be doing something that I never even thought of? Am I willing to be quiet for a day, a week, a year?”

Penn on Evangelism
21 DecI know this has been going around the blog-o-spher-o-verse but Penn, of Penn & Teller, of passionate athiest, has some incredibly honest and important thoughts about evangelism.

Logos for Mac
9 DecI’m no pitch man, but I need to tell my mac friends, that Logos for Mac is finally available for purchase. I have when I switched from PC to Mac, the only thing I missed was Logos. I used their beta release and loved it and now that it’s available for purchase this could be the greatest christmas of all.
The great news for those like me who had logos on the PC platform is that we don’t have to buy the whole package, they’ve made it easier for us, by allowing us to buy only the Mac Engine and transfering our old licesnes in. It’s a pretty sweet deal.
But if you are brand new to the Logos system, there are several different packages and prices that you can consider. I would highly recommend the Scholar’s Library.
The beauty of Logos is the the ability to carry around thousands of books wherever you go. Our church preaches expository sermons, so rather than lugging a bunch of commentaries around, I can download several and have them accessible wherever I go. It’s pretty much awesome.
I highly recommend you go out on the Logos For Mac site and purchase this bad boy. If you use a PC I would still recommend it, for your platform as well.
