Another great group today! More new folks and our first week at Weddington Middle School! Love how the presence of the Lord and the preaching of His Word is all you really need. Sure, people are excited about adding things each week, but I am floored at how much joy there is with such simplicity! […]
READ MOREGod continues to grow the Impact Launch team! This week we added nearly 50 more people! We did the same last week, and the week before that! Can it continue like this? Only God knows. But we pray it does because the larger, stronger, more focused and sold out the launch team, the more impactful […]
READ MOREThis three letter phrase and it’s twin brother, “next to him” appears over and over again in Nehemiah chapter three. And it’s key to any successful church endeavor. Here are a couple examples… 3 The sons of Hassenaah built the Fish Gate. They laid its beams and set its doors, its bolts, and its bars. 4 And […]

They’ll cost you everything. Make sense? No? Then allow me to back up a bit and perhaps it will. Truth is a Rolls Royce. It’s […]
READ MOREYou’re not ‘Chicken’ if you defend marriage! For the last couple of weeks, Chick-Fil-A has come under enormous attack for, wait for it… Saying they agree with God on marriage being only between one man and one woman. For this, politicians and Hollywood “stars” (as well as well known musicians) have demanded they be punished, […]
READ MOREWhat a week @ Southbrook Church! First, we saw the return of a group of 15 folks who hiked to the peaks of the mountains of Peru in order to bring hundreds of Bibles to the Quechua people—Bibles in their very own language! Imagine the thrill to hand a new believer the very Word of […]
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 […]
