A pretty common question I get asked a lot now is, “so how’s the church planting?” I try to usually be ready with a simple answer that lets people know about anything new. After all, that is what they are asking, “what things are happening?” Though we are just a few steps in and more [...]

In this series of blogs I have been talking about things we carry into our relationships. Some of these things are learned, some are observed, and many effect relations without us even being aware.

Though I’m not ashamed to admit I’m somewhat scared of the dark and get really grossed out by hearing people vomit, I mainly have two major fears. In the last post I discussed my fear of rejection. At least I’m working my way through that one. There is another fear of mine that by far [...]

In this short two part series of posts I want to share two of my biggest personal fears. The first one I became aware of as I was walking the track at Brookwood Park in Dalton. I like doing my personal devotions in different locations sometimes and on one particular day a few years ago [...]

The last of the six personal values I have set up for myself is generosity. I want to be marked as someone who not only is burdened and cares, but does something about it. In order to show that we can be trusted (with money, time, responsibility, etc.) we must show ourselves as good stewards. [...]
