This past Sunday I had the privilege of speaking at Creekside Church. We are working through a series called “Can You Trust the Bible.” On Sunday I talked about how to read the Bible as a narrative. Too often I think people approach the Bible with the wrong motives or assumptions about the text. My understanding ofContinue reading “Sunday’s Message Had Legos”

The real thing
This past Sunday I had the opportunity to speak. My portion of Scripture was 1 Cor 16.5-24. This chunk is Paul’s closing statements to the church in Corinth. It’s kind of a hard type of text to preach from because Paul uses a lot of short ideas, expresses greetings and prayers, and stuff like that.Continue reading “The real thing”
A Month of Preaching
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”
Soundtrack for Sermon Prep
Today has been all about sermon prep. I’m privileged to get to teach for the month of august, but it definitely puts a different kind of strain on my week. I like to listen to music while I write. I need to be just distracted enough to focus on anything. So I like put musicContinue reading “Soundtrack for Sermon Prep”

Sunday and the Rapture

I love being a part of the teaching team at Creekside Church, but so far I have talked about Circumcision, Talking Donkeys, and the like. Last sunday was no different. I spoke on 1 ThessaloniansContinue reading “Sunday and the Rapture”
Some Blog Thoughts
Los is back with a great post here. of particular note is #4. I wonder if modern day Christian leaders are more concerned about becoming famous than becoming Jesus? And here’s a quote from Will Wilimon “The gospel is not simply about meeting people’s needs. The gospel is also a critique of our needs, anContinue reading “Some Blog Thoughts”
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.
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”
Preaching on Sunday 12-28-08
Lately I have been privileged to speak on the last Sunday of the year. I like to take this particular Sunday and try to talk about the mission of God, the church. This year the title is The Year Of Living Missionally, not a great title but it works. I want to help Creekside becomeContinue reading “Preaching on Sunday 12-28-08”
