This year at Creekside we are focusing on the Magi and the stars. The cosmos are amazing. Just take a moment and look at these stunning pictures from the Hubble Telescope. The Bible tells us that God created the Sun, Moon, and stars and that he placed them where he wanted them. As God wasContinue reading “Advent 2019 — Follow the Star”

Engagement
I was at the dentist this morning. (Don’t be jealous.) I learned that the Hygienist (Anna) is a pastor’s wife. She asked me an important question. “What is the most difficult about leading a church?” This is a big question and difficult to answer at the dentist’s office, mainly because they ask questions and thenContinue reading “Engagement”
The Road Ahead
Today we begin a new chapter at Creekside Church. This is my first Sunday after as lead pastor of this amazing church. I know that I have a lot to learn as we move forward. I am trusting that Jesus will continue to do the work that he has already started in me. There willContinue reading “The Road Ahead”
Multiply Monday: Leaders and Opportunities
I recently read A Multi-Site Road Trip. This book was essentially a tour of several different churches that are implementing Multi-Site methodology into their church. There were many great lessons to be learned and it is a book that I plan to go back to over the next year. Today I wanted to share oneContinue reading “Multiply Monday: Leaders and Opportunities”

Peculiar
We have been walking around the neighborhood in Salto. Every time we have passed by this car. we don’t know what it is or who made it. It kind of looks like a Volkswagen Thing but its not. This morning we were doing a prayer walk and we passed this car again. I felt theContinue reading “Peculiar”
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”
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”
God is a Giver
Yesterday at Creekside we worked through Romans 11.1-12. This is a short text but there is a lot going in there. I loved going through the story of Elijah and the duel with the prophets of Baal on Mt. Carmel. The text really came together though when in Pre-Preach Kate and I were talking aboutContinue reading “God is a Giver”
