August at Creekside usually means that Don, our lead pastor, is travelling. He is an avid fisherman, and he uses August as a month to go and wrangle some fish. For the past few years I have been picking up the majority of the Sunday morning preaching. This year I’ve had all of August toContinue reading “A Month of Preaching”

Gospel Urgency & Gospel Patience
Yesterday was a great day at Creekside. I got to preach about Livin’ Single, (not the tv show) and I got to play a bit of Pomplamoose’s cover of Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” which is probably one of my favorite songs. I’m not even ashamed to admit that. Pomplamoose’s arrangement is amazing and totally creative. LoveContinue reading “Gospel Urgency & Gospel Patience”
Push or Pull

God is Way Smarter Than Me
In my previous post I talked about how life is expensive, there is always another expense. I have been entrusted to steward the things that God has resources that God has given me. I also talked about investing in Missionaries with their various projects and buildings and expenses. Today we were working on how toContinue reading “God is Way Smarter Than Me”

Lonliness is what leads people to make destructive decisions, it’s what leads toContinue reading “Value of Community”

I’ve actually tried to write this post a couple of times, and each time I felt totally cheesy so I scrapped it. The past five years haveContinue reading “5 years”
Priorities in relationships
This past sunday I talked about Song of Songs 2:8-3:5. The key passage that I talked about was 2:15, “Catch for us the little foxes, the foxes that ruin our vineyard.” Just to be clear, I did say foxes, not a different word that starts with “f”. One of the foxes that I talked aboutContinue reading “Priorities in relationships”

The Body
Ephesian 4:11-16 “And he [Jesus] gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, toContinue reading “The Body”
Changes
Creekside is making a huge shift. Launching a second service. 9 am & 11 am. doubling everything. But most importantly, we are making room for more people to discover trust and love Jesus Christ. It’s more work, but it’s worth it because the kingdom of God is all about the mission and our church isContinue reading “Changes”
