“But For the Grace of God, There Go I”

Therefore, dear friends, be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of lawless men and fall from your secure position. 2 Peter 3:17 (NIV) This week has been bitter/sweet for me. On the one hand, I am thrilled to bring the gospel via crusade—to so many in the […]

Meet Me Here

What if you got a note you were positive was from God Almighty? I’m not talking call CSI investigations, have the folks at area 51 examine it or take it to Ghost-busters (for authentication).

Head Wound Harry

How many of you remember this tasteless but hilarious skit from SNL (That’s Saturday Night Live, for the 3 people who didn’t know)? Harry was a young yuppie type who sustained a massive head would somehow–no one ever reveals how on the show–and yet, carries on like nothing is amiss. But it’s difficult (read: impossible) […]

Jesus or Jesus Junk? Part 2

If you missed part one of this, go here. The second biblical example of this phenomenon actually happened many, many times. I will just pick one at random for us to take a look at. I’m talking about the ‘high places‘ of false worship that became an ongoing struggle for God’s chosen people throughout the […]

Bit by Bit

Almost all church planters begin with a dream. In the beginning it might be a burden to reach a certain group of people in a certain town—or—an entire city or area of the country. Then there is much prayer and sharing of the vision with a handful of people (and these days, various church planting […]
