Isaiah 7:13-17 13 Then Isaiah said, “Hear now, you house of David! Is it not enough to try the patience of humans? Will you try the patience of my God also? 14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel. 15 He will be eating curds and honey when he knows enough to rejectContinue reading “Virgin Birth – Anticipation – God’s Promises”

Judah
He just keeps growing so fast. I can’t believe he’s coming up on his 7th Christmas. Crazy.
Seasons
It seems to me that whenever the seasons change there is an incredible increase in my busy-ness. Something about the transition from Summer to Autumn, Autumn to Winter, and so on ramps up the activity around churches. In the middle of the busy-ness of it all it is very easy to get overwhelmed with allContinue reading “Seasons”
Center
What is the center of the church? If it’s the sermon, that’s wrong. If it’s the music style that’s off. If it’s the groups system that’s a great thing but it can’t be the center. There are a lot if things that fight to be the center of your church. And often they seem likeContinue reading “Center”
When Heroes Fall
This past month I’ve been reading every article that made mention of Lance Armstrong and the USADA report. I was adamantly in Armstrong’s corner as these reports were coming out because I couldn’t believe that this new agency found evidence that no one else could find. Then stories of teammates testifying against Armstrong began toContinue reading “When Heroes Fall”
Indisputable
I’ve heard a lot of people use the word indisputable lately. That word makes me laugh. First because it’s funny sound. It makes me think of those times when you have some phlegm in your throat and you can’t clear it to spit it out. The other reason it makes me laugh is because anyone can find a wayContinue reading “Indisputable”
Progress
I love making progress. I love being able to look at my to do list and cross stuff off. I love seeing projects accomplished. I love putting ideas on a board and building a plan. I love progress. Even if it isn’t huge a little progress puts a ton of wind in your sails. OftenContinue reading “Progress”
Work In Progress
I’m never done. It seems that as soon as I finish one project it leads to another. Sometimes that’s incredibly frustrating. Sometimes I just want to look at all of done and say, “It’s finished, it’s complete.” That will never happen though. And I’m ok with that. I’m ok with it because as a pastorContinue reading “Work In Progress”
Thoughts on Prometheus
I saw Prometheus on Tuesday. The motivation for the protagonist in the film is to discover where humanity came from. This search leads them to an earthlike planet, where things then go horribly, horribly wrong. The acting was fine, the special effects were amazing, the premise was interesting. Prometheus is one more story that triesContinue reading “Thoughts on Prometheus”
The Lines We Draw
Yesterday at Creekside we had a guest Speaker, Dr. Ron Herms from Northwest University. I’ve known Ron for almost four years and every class that I took with Ron has challenged my thinking and helped me to love Jesus and the Bible more. It was a great privilege to have Ron speak at Creekside and I wasContinue reading “The Lines We Draw”
