I’ve come to realize that many evangelicals, especially those that have recently come into the faith the last ten years, have never heard of various Christian traditions. I’ve also recognized that in the geographical area God has called me to, which is still one of...
International Food Festival
I'm very excited about our upcoming city-wide outreach. As a church, it's our mandate to LOVE OUR CITY. And there's no other way to love our city than to gather hundreds of people to a celebration of diversity, culture, music and food. As people gather, we will be...
800 Pound Gorilla or Elephant in the Room
Join us for every Sunday morning in the month February as we attempt to explore the vast subject of THE HOLY SPIRIT. I've come to realize that in most churches, especially ours, He's the unrecognized, untapped and unaddressed "800 pound gorilla" or the "elephant in...
STUCK IN THE MIDDLE
Tomorrow, I'm sharing a message that has brought me though many tight places in the past. I feel it's a timely message for our church tomorrow. And in case you were wondering, not all the messages that I preach are new messages. There are some sermons that I will...

Feeding Season
As you may well know, my writing has been somewhat infrequent this past month. I haven't been writing as often as I used to in the past. The truth is that I believe I’m in a feeding season. As people of the Kingdom and ministers in particular, we should always be...
Finishing with a Bang!
It was great being "behind the pulpit" this past Sunday. I love to minister to our Impact Church family! Yesterday, we began our last message series for the year -wow, I can't believe we're in the last month of the year! I'm not known for being a "holiday...
