What a great weekend we had at Impact church! It’s so encouraging to see the way the kingdom of God functions. It’s all about connections and relationships. We use the gifts the Lord has given us to improve the lives of people. And this is what Tim Redmond did this...
In the “pastor/guest speaker” culture, it’s usually customary that on the eve before the guest speaker speaks at the pastor’s church, that the pastor takes him out to eat at a steak house (or restaurant the represents the culture of the geographical location) LOL! I...
I’m learning much about prayer and intercession. And what I’m learning is really a re-learning. These are principles and concepts things that I’ve been taught but in all honesty I haven’t really “caught.” We pastors are a “strange breed.” Our calling and our duty...

Yesterday was my third message on the message series, Covenant. It appears that the more I study this subject matter the more I am blown away by God’s actions and intension for us. His love for us is truly unfathomable! Simply put, He gave to us “choice” and we...
I believe the Lord always gives to us a Word for every season we are in. My heart is full of expectation as He guides and leads us through our process of change. I’m currently preparing a new message series for the mid-fall season titled, Seated With Christ. And in...
I'm at our off-site retreat with our executive board and pastoral staff. The Lord is already doing some great things in us. I guess I'm a bit knuckle-headed, I should have done this several times already, if not, once a year. I guess in my "older years" I'm...
