Let’em Go!

I’ll admit, I don’t know a whole lot about T.D. Jakes, but the other day (when I was feeling sorry for myself that someone left Southbrook, spewing and spinning all the way out the door) his book caught my eye. Or rather, a chapter title within it did. “Let’em Walk” Since that doesn’t really mean […]

Concerns…Part 2

If you need to catch up on this one, hop on over to here and I’ll wait… Finally. I was beginning to get a little concerned. I’m better now, so we can move forward with our discussion of “concerns.” Seems to me there are 2 types of “concerns” out there. The first kind arises out […]

We’ve Got Some Concerns

Whenever I hear this it’s difficult to keep a straight face. Better let me clarify before you develop a “concern” for my flippant attitude. I’m referring to something nearly everyone encounters in their life—friends, couples, family members, co-workers, church members, etc. who always seem to preface every conversation with, “We just have a few concerns.” […]

The Christmas Challenge Begins this Weekend!

Tired of the same old – same old? Few holidays extract more effort from people for the illusive “Perfect Christmas.” Year after year after year, people try to rearrange events, stop inviting party poopers, purchase just the right gift for that hard to please individual, decorate their home better than the Grisswalds, read from a […]

Not My Problem!

Ever heard this one? Sure you have. Maybe it’s even a personal favorite of yours. But where are the clear cut rules on this deal? My Problem? Your Problem? I believe a lot of what “Christians” sluff off under the guise of, ‘not my problem!’—actually IS their problem after all. And won’t […]

Oh the upkeep of some people!!

Several years back I was at a dinner party with my wife Michelle when the lady of the house made this comment “half jokingly” about her husband (once he left the room of course). “Oh, he can be quite high maintenance at times.” It wasn’t a compliment. Tell you the truth, it […]

The Annual Turkey Trot

Another year, another Turkey Trot. And the saddest part is that it will be 12 months before we get to do it again. And some of you are saying, â€œThatâ€™s great. Iâ€™ll log that away. Just one questionâ€¦What in the world is a Turkey Trot?â€ You donâ€™t have to get snippy about it. Iâ€™ll tell […]

Top Ten Things I’m Thankful For

In no particular order A wife who doesn’t think I need to “bring sexy back” because I still am to her I have 2 kids who genuinely love the Lord above all else. Another year where hundreds and hundreds have come to know Jesus at Southbrook Church (the most awesome church family on earth!) Our […]

Sometimes God’s Love is Painful

Something doesn’t feel right this year. I can’t even put my finger on it—not completely. Maybe because it’s something that looks perfectly fine on the outside—maybe even good. Scratch that. GREAT. On the one hand churches are popping up all over the place claiming to make the Bible hip, happening and the latest craze since…well, […]
