So we had an all church dodgeball event on friday, we had youth, college, and young married folks, and people who had never been to our church, but were invited by friends. It was awesome to see all these people getting together to play on of the best games ever. I hope that we haveContinue reading “Dodgeball”

I love easter. It’s probably the best day of the year ever. This is the day when Jesus was raised from the dead, and if it wasn’t for this day then I would really have no reason to be, I would have no hope, and I would have no life. But good thing Jesus wasContinue reading “Easter”

last night I was unable to attend transit because there was a church leadership community at the same time. I was a little nervous because transit is in my house and my wife was going to be there alone, and I had heard that one of the couples that usually attends wasn’t going to beContinue reading “transit absentia”

So I’m trying to figure out effective ways to invite people to different events and one of the methods that I am using is the Myspace Events invitation. So I’ll see how effective it is, and maybe, just maybe I’ll utilize this myspace feature more often. I did however send 3 different invitations to 3Continue reading “Myspace Invites”

I have been reading the book Christ Plays in Ten Thousand Places, by Eugene Peterson. I gotta say, it’s a great book. Peterson has a professors mind with a pastors heart. And that really comes through in his writing. He really communicates that he loves people and he wants people to love Jesus and experienceContinue reading “Tourist Faith”

But my friend, Kevin Lee Swann, hence the Kwann Lee reference, was one of the major influences in my life. HeContinue reading “Pho, Kwann Lee and the Apple Store”

This morning I was at the gym, which is my regular routine. Today was legs day, tomorrow Abs. After my workout and shower I was packing up my gym bag and for some reason I can’t explain I started thinking about time and God and sin. I had read some where I think it wasContinue reading “Locker Room Epiphany”

Yesterday I was given the opportunity to speak in our morning service. I talked about Bezalel and Oholiab, and I talked about spiritual gifts and how just because our gift isn’t on Paul’s lists, doesn’t me it’s not a spiritual gift. We can’t put limits on Jesus and who and how he wants to giveContinue reading “Sunday Re-Cap”

* Jack Bauer’s calendar goes from March 31st to April 2nd; no one fools Jack Bauer. * If everyone on 24 followed Jack’s instructions, it would be called 12. * If you wake up in the morning, it’s because Jack Bauer spared your life. * Superman wears Jack Bauer pajamas. * There have been noContinue reading “Jack Bauer Facts”

I just finished this wonderful book by the Bishop N.T. Wright. Wright, is a brilliant scholar and clear communicator. Wright loves the Bible and desires that the church would bring the Bible back to a place where it has authority in the church and in the lives of Christians. He does a great job ofContinue reading “The Last Word”
