We had an INCREDIBLE day of ministry today. We started the day off with Dunkin’ Donuts (America runs on Dunkin’) and drove about an hour to Rochester, NY. Our students performed at a Teen Challenge and it was amazing. God has blessed our group by allowing them to hear amazing life-change testimonies, and He continued [...]
The Latest…
Our Wednesday night service was rocking last night! The band was awesome. We started the “One Prayer” series last night. The series is based around this question: If you could pray one prayer that God would answer for the church at large, what would it be? After a lot of praying, last night I preached [...]
One Prayer Begins Tonight!
We have an awesome series beginning tonight called One Prayer. One Prayer is a nation-wide thing. Here’s how is works. The permise of the series is, “If you only had one prayer for the church, what would it be?” The first message will be given by me. The next 3 will [...]
Recap from Jr. High Mission Tour day one
Good morning everyone! It’s 7:15 a.m. and I’m sitting in the lobby of the Hampton Inn in Columbia, SC. Just know that I really love Jesus and students to voluntarily go anywhere near Columbia. I saw plenty of Gamecock stuff at the mall last night. It was sickening. Yesterday afternoon the students performed for the [...]
Off To Myrtle Beach With A Bunch of Middle Schoolers
We are leaving this morning to go on the junior high mission tour to Myrtle Beach. 5 days with middle schoolers? To most people, that sounds insane. To us, that’s a good time. I’m looking forward to watching my junior high students minister in South Carolina. With all the Gamecock fnas up there, there’s plenty [...]
Wednesday Night Highlights And Church Update (as promised!)
Before I get to the “meat” of today’s post, I wanted to post a video of our worship team playing Everlasting God last night. I am so blessed to have a faithful team that is not only committed to leading in worship every week, but they are also really good! Our set list last night [...]
Lessons Learned From Drive (Part 3) and Wed. Night Stuff
This will probably be the last of my comments on Drive. And this comment may be more directed towards North Point than their Drive Conference. One of the things I love about North Point is their strategy. Everything they do has structure and vision behind it. How many Amerian churches have a strategy for making [...]
Lessons I Learned At Drive: Volume 1 (and Wednesday night stuff)
One of the big takeaways the Drive conference promoted was healthy staff cultures. Do you have a healthy staff culture at your church. Andy said that whenever there is a gap between what you expect from someone and what they actually deliver, you have to choose what you place in that gap. There are only [...]
Band Practice, Organizing Worship, and our Dream House
Just got home from band practice. It was great! I am really excited about our student worship service this week. Our team that went to Ecuador will share with their fellow students how God worked, how their life has been changed, and why other students should do missions. It will be powerful. I think it [...]
