Has God’s face ever been on a coin? We are the coin that bears the living likeness of God. Giving if ourselves with whatever that may include, is the only legal currency of the kingdom of heaven. – Gordon and Gladis DePree Matthew 22 Paying the Imperial Tax to Caesar 15 Then the Pharisees wentContinue reading “God’s Currency”

Nothing To Say
It’s June 20th, and I haven’t written anything here in nearly 6 months. It’s not that I haven’t had thoughts and things haven’t been going on. I just have not had time, or energy, to formulate those ideas. This is very frustrating. Even more frustrating is when I think about the time that I haveContinue reading “Nothing To Say”
Paperman
I really enjoyed this short from Disney:
FINISH LINES
Many of the projects that I have been working on over the last several months are coming up on their finish lines. I’m excited to be able to put these things out into the world so people can use them. Of course these finish lines are really just new starting lines. But isn’t that theContinue reading “FINISH LINES”
Simple Solutions
This week I’ve been working on a project that is more complex than I wanted it to be. I tried to come up with all kinds of solutions that all ended up being more complex. So what did I do? I took out a pen and a small journal and wrote down all the nextContinue reading “Simple Solutions”
Read Something New This Year

And in the story it says, “Noah found favor in the sight of the LORD.” In the middle of all kinds of human depravity and wickedness, Moses somehow found favor, grace, in God’s sight. When reading stories like Noah’s we tend to put in all the reasons thatContinue reading “Grace and Fairness”
New Year . . . Biggest year ever
I’m looking forward to several new and exciting things in 2013. This is going to be a big year. First, we are relaunching Creekside Church. We have grown in significant ways over the last four years and this relaunch is an opportunity for everyone to get on the same page. It’s also an opportunity toContinue reading “New Year . . .

Amazing Spider-Man #700
So I purchased the Amazing Spider-Man finale. It’s kind of a big deal in nerd-dom. I’m going to say some things that may spoil the book for you, so be warned. Here’s the deal. Peter Parker is probably the comic book nerds greatest hero. Peter is a nerdy awkward kid who through a freak radioactiveContinue reading “Amazing Spider-Man #700”
Christmas is here
Tonight we got our Campus ready for our Christmas Sunday Services. We are going to be doing four services on Sunday the 23rd. CRAZY! It’s amazing to think about how much God has done over the last three and a half years since we moved into our Mountlake Terrace Campus. This is our fourth ChristmasContinue reading “Christmas is here”
