Friday Tidbits

Normally I don’t post pictures, jokes, etc. I get in my email, but this was too great to pass up. This picture was titled “Redneck Condos.” All I could think about was that it looked like a trashy version of Beverly Hills 90210.

Our house is showing today. Pray that it sells!

We’ve got a rehearsal dinner [...]

Thursday Thoughts: Happy Birthday Mama!

Today is my Mama’s birthday. (Yes, I am a proud Southerner. We don’t say “mother” down here. Mama all the way!) I was reminded of 2 Timothy 1:5 this morning, which says, “I have been reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am [...]

It’s always cool to see God work on your behalf

Okay, this will give you chills. If you didn’t know, our student ministry is taking a mission trip to Ecuador before too long. On Sunday, we had a training event. Brent, one of our adults who is going on the trip, approached me Sunday after the training event and told me that he had a [...]

Tuesday Thoughts

God continues to kick my teeth in (in a good way, of course) as I read through 1 Corinthians. This morning I was reading in chapter 3, and Paul writes about there being quarelling over who follows who. Some followed Paul. Some followed Apollos. I think in our culture that fosters a super-star mentality in [...]

“Songs” service this week! (featuring songs by Chris Tomlin, Hillsong United, Steve Fee, and Kristian Stanfill)

I am so excited about our “Songs” service this Wednesday night! We did this service about a year ago, and it was one of the best worship experiences of the year! The whole service will be some of our favorite worship songs, but we will take about 4 or 5 minutes between each song and talk [...]

Told you I would catch a big bass!

Today I went fishing with Greg Oleson. (Thanks Senor Greg!). This was the first time I’ve been fishing in 2008, and my first fish was the 4 pound beauty. Hopefully this fish is an indicator of a good fishing season this year. I caught 5 today. Not bad for February!

Saturday Stuff: Blue Reeboks and Fishing

I bought a pair of really blue shoes. They are cool and I know I look cool when I wear them. Especially since they were only $25 at Hibbetts.
Katie and Charlie have headed off to Douglasville to see baby Sam. They were looking forward to it! 
I am about to go fishing for the afternoon. Maybe [...]

Thursday Thoughts: Cracker Barrel, Friendship, and Mozambique

Last night we had an awesome time together at our student worship service. My friends Chris and Katie Nalls came and shared about their call to serve God in Mozambique (more on them in a minute).  I am so thankful and excited that our students really were interested in their story. Our students asked a [...]

Student Ministry Plans For Feb. 20

Hey y’all! Just wanted to give you a heads up on what’s coming up tonight at church!

Here’s the worship songs for tonight: (Go download them on your iPod so you can sing along LOUDLY tonight!) “Meant To Live” by Switchfoot, “Made To Worship” by Chris Tomlin, “Nothing Compares” by Third Day, “From The Inside Out” [...]

Just a reminder that I’m not that good of a minister (and morning musings)…

I was doing my Bible reading this morning in 1 Corinthinas chapter 2. You know, sometimes it’s easy to develop “the big head” in ministry and think more highly of yourself than you ought to. In 1 Cor. 2:1-5, Paul writes these words: 1When I came to you, brothers, I did not come with eloquence [...]
