Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes!
As I sit and enjoy my bite-sized Mr. Goodbar, I feel a general sense of excitement for what’s coming down the stretch. 1. I just informed my boss at Cutter & Buck that my last day will be Dec. 1st. It’s a bummer but it’s good too because I will be able to be homeContinue reading “Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes!”
Cracked the Southern Hemisphere
Woo-Hoo, we finally did it, the >>beyondcast>> has cracked the southern hemisphere. It’s crazy how this thing has downloaded. Over the past week we have had 5 downloads from Washington State, 10 from San Francisco, 21 from Colorado, 21 from Bejing, 3 in europe, and now one in the southern hemisphere, South Africa. Absolutely Crazy. IContinue reading “Cracked the Southern Hemisphere”
Risk-a-phobia
I think the reason that people are fine with things the way they are is because they are afraid of risk. And more importantly they are afraid of failure. I have stuggled with that fear. I used to always want to be other people, or have their ministry or their giftings. But God has reallyContinue reading “Risk-a-phobia”
Weekend de-briefing
Well this was an event filled weekend. Lot’s of fun, lot’s of laughs, and a stank-nasty gym floor. Some of the students from our youth ministry headed over to Yakima to our networks youth conference. I always enjoy these conferences because it energizes the leaders that go, and encourages students. This year our guest speakerContinue reading “Weekend de-briefing”

Dang, that’s good
I came across a post from Mark Batterson, about something that Greg Groeschel, said at the Catalyst Conference. I love the blogosphere. I love this thought Craig shared about one of his ministry “failures.” His student group grew backwards and someone said to him: if you blame yourself for the decline you’ll be tempted toContinue reading “Dang, that’s good”
What’s next
Interesting Article from Christianity Today: What’s Next: Youth I think youth ministry is something that is always evolving always changing. When you are dealing with students who change their favorite musical preference more often than their socks it’s really hard to nail down one definite way to do ministry. But this article has some goodContinue reading “What’s next”
Some Days Are Better Than Others
This is probably my favorite song off of U2’s Zooropa, it’s going through my head today. Some days are dry, some days are leaky Some days come clean, other days are sneaky Some days take less, but most days take more Some slip through your fingers and onto the floor Some days youre quick, but most daysContinue reading “Some Days Are Better Than Others”
My Day
Well let me tell you about how great my day was. First off, I met with our area leader Tim Wicks and we talked about ministry, camps, fun stuff like that. I love meeting with youth pastors and I need to do it more often because it always recharges me and helps me to seeContinue reading “My Day”
