Sunday Evening Mind Dump

What a week! And what a year! 2010 can best be summed up for me by saying, “It was the best of times. It was the worst of times,” but even the worst of times were really, really good for Southbrook Church and our future of marking the body, community and world for Jesus! The […]

Early Mornings with God

I love getting up early and starting my day with Jesus. I’m not at all a morning person–unless I start it with Jesus. Seems only He can turn us vampire, night people into pleasant day folks! This morning I read through parts of Romans 8 again–even though it was the 100 day reading for yesterday. […]
