The Narrow Gate
How Many Kings
I love this song. Even though it is a Christmas song, it also captures the essence of Christ’s mission. It’s a great reminder of what He went through to reach down to us and offer salvation and grace. Compared to God, we are nothing. Nothing. Yet He still loves us and desires a relationship with [...]
Everything
This skit keeps coming to mind, especially during times of stress. I can’t do it alone…and I don’t have too. No matter what is going on, or what the enemy is doing to distract me, Jesus will never give up on me. He will try to get through to me. Jesus will not stop trying [...]
There and Back Again 2009
This year I led the Mission Trip to Mexico. It was an amazing/awesome/ tiring/draining/uplifting/ encouraging/recharging trip. Nicole was able to go with me this year, and she had a great time. She was a hard working machine! Being in charge of the whole trip was an honor, and while I did have some bumps in [...]

The Three Hardest Words To Get Right
Jake posted a link on the HSM Leader's Blog for leadership development, and I love the article he used. Here is what popped in my head as I read it: I love the imagery that the thread that holds our webs together is God. When we aren't connected to Him, everything falls apart. It [...]
God’s Timing is Perfect
For a while I’ve been feeling unsettled at work. I have felt God prodding me that I needed to make a change, to do something different. I have applied for positions within the company that I thought God had prepared me for only to not get an offer. It’s been rough. It's been disheartening. [...]
My Jonathan
Yesterday I sat at Starbucks for about two hours catching up with my friend Matt Mehaffey. He was in town and we were able to get together to catch up on each other’s lives. As we sat there and talked, my mind drifted back to the time we drove down to Florida for the High School [...]
Do I have “it”?
I just finished reading Craig Groeschel's it and I am convicted. I hate to admit this, but I lost my focus. Doing ministry has made me lose sight of pursuing God. I have focused so much on reading books, dowloading podcasts, reading blogs and Twittering with others that my spiritual life is not where it [...]
Spring Break 2009
What an amazing week! The HS ministry took it’s yearly Spring Break trip to Panama City Beach, FL, to the Laguna Beach Christian Resort, and I was able to go this year after missing out last year. We took 50+ students down for a week of fun and worship, and it was a great week, [...]
Knowledge Expansion Through Twitter
Since I've started Twittering, I have formed new relationships with pastors all over the country. I have started to interact with men in Texas, Florida, Kentucky, Illinois -and the list is growing longer. I have started to read new blogs, and the information I am getting is awesome. I am getting different insights on how to [...]
