This was a pretty cool happening. In my bible reading this morning I read Deuteronomy 18 which talks about the Prophet like Moses, and Mark 13, where Jesus is speaking as a prophet in the temple. Pretty awesome “coincidence.” Thanks Biblegateway.com A New Prophet like Moses 15 “The LORD your God will raise up forContinue reading “The Prophet Like Moses = Jesus”

This Sunday
I have the honor of preaching again this Sunday Morning. Talking about 1 Thess 4:13-5:11. Thinking about just playing this movie. not really.
Forgiveness
Today I was reading from Mark and this verse struck me. Mark 11:25 – “And whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone, so that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.” Whenever you pray, forgive. Who do you need to forgive? I think we all haveContinue reading “Forgiveness”
Great Presenters
Great post from Seth Godin on what makes a great presenter. Bottom line if you don’t love your audience, you’ll never be great. When it comes to preaching, if you don’t love the people you are speaking with then they won’t care. Perry Noble, Mark Driscoll, Rob Bell, Erwin McManus, Rick Warren . . .Continue reading “Great Presenters”

“Just Be Blessin'”
Great Post from Ben Arment. On the blessing of God on churches. I think part of the problem is our understanding of what God’s blessing is really all about. Just my $.02
U2 and organizational greatness
U2 released No Line On The Horizon, which is growing on me. It’s quite a departure from How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb, which I loved. I was reading an interview with the band on CNN.com, and I was struck by the last statement from drummer Larry Mullen, Jr.: We were always labeled “big” —Continue reading “U2 and organizational greatness”
The Bible
The Bible is way more powerful than we realize. Sometime it takes an outsider to show us just how strong the Word of God is: “You Christians look after a document containing enough dynamite to blow all civilization to pieces, turn the world upside down, and bring peace to a battle-torn planet. But you treatContinue reading “The Bible”
