More than words

I’m so excited about an upcoming outreach we’re gearing up for at Southbrook. We announced it this past weekend and all I can say about it is… It’s huge! It will have an impact we’ll all remember for years to come. And I’m hoping the impact will be so positive on our community and our […]

Southbrook turns out THANK . FULL!

Wow! One of the biggest weekends ever as almost every service was packed! Saturday was big, 8:30 was huge! 10:00 in the main and the Cafe saw standing room only and if you thought it would let up at 11:30, you would have been wrong! What a weekend, and it couldn’t be for a better […]

Thank . Full — >

Are you Thank . Full? The stories keep coming in from our “Pop Quiz” from God. If you do not remember this deal it was when we tricked (oops, I mean, encouraged) folks to step out in faith and test God by giving money they knew they would not get back. It was easy to […]

Guest Blogger: Clayton King

Remember this guy? It was one of Bill Cosby’s characters called Fat Albert. He was hilarious. For about 4 months of my oldest son’s life, he lost the ability to stop eating. There was no shut-off mechanism. He could not ever feel full. He was never satisfied. We had to pry food out of his […]

Southbrook Urban Legends, Part 2

Urban Legend #2: The teaching just isn’t deep there anymore now that they’ve switched the focus to lost people. This one would be funny if it wasn’t so sad. About a year and a half ago I made the decision to go even deeper on the weekends, use more scripture and share more stories from […]
