God’s Christmas List

What if Almighty God made Christmas lists like some of us?—Or, at least like some of us did when we were kids (FYI, if you are over 18 and still make these lists for mommy and daddy…STOP! For the love of God, you’re embarrassing yourself!). You know the kind of list I’m talking about…   […]

I can’t remember the last time so many people came up and thanked me for offering something so vitally needed.

Celebrate!

Wow! We saw 38 people step out in obedience to Christ and get baptized at Grace yesterday!! And I’m telling you, this will NEVER get old! What a blast they must have had in Heaven as we celebrated down here! Why are baptisms so often treated more like funerals than celebrations? Why, as my pastor […]
