Ok, not much mystery here with such a picture leading up the post, but I hope you will indulge me for just a moment or two… Now that my family and I have spent a fun week at Disneyworld (Hey, you’re never too old to be a kid for a few days!) I can sort […]
READ MOREI was listening to one of my favorite preachers the other day when he uncharacteristically went off on a rant about another pastor. This “other” pastor’s identity wasn’t very cryptically kept. In fact, you’d have to have been living the last decade under the proverbial rock to not have figured it out in less time […]
READ MOREToday is the thirty seventh day of what I really thought would be no more than a twenty-one day Daniel fast (Honestly, it started off as a one day water only fast). After all, that’s the name of the thing, “The 21 Day Daniel Fast.” However, as each day passed and I experienced deeper and […]
READ MOREIt’s 3:50 AM right now and I’m wide awake. It’s not a bad thing—I’m not mad or anything. In fact, God sometimes does this and I very much look forward to it. Why? Because He never wakes me up without a reason. He always has something to tell me. It’s just up to me to […]
READ MOREThanks for the break over the last few days my friends! I had great family time and even a long overdue date with my wife! Wow! 2012 was a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde year for the Singletons! It was a year complete with some of the lowest lows and highest highs of our lives. […]
READ MOREThis is the title we’ve given this next year @ Southbrook Church—“The Year of Discipleship.” Sounds pretty impressive, huh? But what in the world does it mean? Well, let’s start with what it doesn’t mean. It doesn’t mean that this is the one and only year we’re giving a rip about discipline people. It […]
READ MOREOk, a title should never be the length of a short post, but there it is. Since you made it past that, admit it, It’s a pretty good question, isn’t it? Today, most church plants in America are DOA unless they have at least half of the DNA listed in the title above. Or so […]
READ MOREToday is the day to stand firm for the institution of marriage in the state of North Carolina by voting FOR the marriage amendment that adds protection for this precious union into our state constitution. In today’s post I want to make a final argument before we all head for the polls. Consider how often […]
READ MOREAt Southbrook Church we teach both topical and expository sermons (sometimes referred to as “verse by verse teaching”). And I have to admit, I’m somewhat perplexed by the virtual Hatfields vs. McCoys type infighting that has resulted from pastors believing vehemently that you can only do one or the other. On the one hand you […]
READ MOREOne of the reasons I discontinued this segment of posts from my blog was not a conscious one—to be blunt, there were just far too many champions around Southbrook to limit it to a once a month or even once a week—forget that—how about even once a day postings?! The love for one another, unity, […]
