Cash for Clunkers

Remember this offer from the US government? The deal was that anyone could bring in their old, dilapidated, run down bucket of bolts and exchange it for  thousands off the purchase of a new car from General Motors—pretty much something for nothing. Well God has a better offer for us. Bring him all your junk […]

Your Next Step

In our church we are ending a series called, Upgrade. The series has emphasized moving from here to there—from wherever we are (“here”) in Christ (or that first step to know Him through salvation) to becoming more and more like Him (“there”). After all, that is what a walk with Jesus boils down to: a […]

A Fork in the Road

Lately I’ve observed a greater fire in the people of Southbrook Church than at any other time in our history! I’m thrilled to see this–we’ve endured a lot to get to this point. Good news!–once you have momentum it’s easier to keep and the Lord’s work is more exciting than ever. For example–this past Christmas […]

Friday night they gathered at our Southbrook Weddington Campus to pray for God to ignite the hearts of believers everywhere through the message being taught (It was Matt Chandler this particular night). Spending some time with Matt and Lauren […]

The opportunity is a revival at Elevation Church right here in the Charlotte area. The pastor of Elevation is Steven Furtick and he’s a […]

Sunday Evening Mind Dump!

Great to see all the crowds! Challenged them to “Give us a year.” Church shopping and hopping in the South is an Olympic sport, but God wants each of us to belong to a church family and dive in with all we’re got. That’s hard to do (read here: impossible) when we go to one […]

Call of Duty

Now that 2011 is getting smaller in the rear view mirror and we’ve all entered the front gate of 2012 world—it’s time for everyone in Christendom to decide (consciously or unconsciously) whether or not they are going to report for duty. What do I mean by, “Report for Duty?” Well, every believer is first “called,” […]

I Believe Mountains May Move in 2012!

I’ve never moved a mountain with my faith. No, Mt. Saint Helen’s eruption wasn’t orchestrated by me. As I said, I’ve never moved a mountain. but I believe I could. Don’t be too concerned for my mental health. I do live in reality, but my reality includes a God of the universe who is in […]
