Your 5 Best Ministries
I see people all the time searching feverishly to find their perfect place of service. Some people refer to this as their “best ministry.” Maybe the Worship Team audition didn’t go as planned (you’re not sure why – you sound GREAT in the shower) and your one night on Tech Team ended with the fire
The Greatest Story Ever
We all have a STORY. The world often lies to you, telling you that your story doesn’t matter, that you have to be better, smarter, stronger, more popular, more talented, or more athletic to have value and purpose. Those are all lies! You matter because you were created by God. You were “fearfully and wonderfully”
(Not So) Great Expectations
University of South Carolina Head Men’s Basketball Coach, Frank Martin, has made headlines recently for the following quote about expectations of kids… You know what makes me sick to my stomach? When I hear grown people say that kids have changed. Kids haven’t changed. Kids don’t know anything about anything. We’ve changed as adults. We
The “Magic” of March Madness
Maybe you know the feeling… sitting on the edge of your seat, palms clenched, breath held, hopeful, and poised to jump in the air at any moment with arms raised to the ceiling in victory. Yep, it’s March Madness! If you have a team in the “Big Dance” you know exactly what I’m talking about.
Excusing Yourself From God’s Blessing
Is it possible that you are excusing yourself from God’s blessings? Let me explain… In Exodus 3, we see that Moses found himself in a really awkward situation one day.

An Adopted Child of God
Who Am I? An Adopted Child of God “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit Himself bears witness
The Delight of God
Who Am I? I am the Delight of God. The LORD your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing. – Zephaniah 3: 17 Have you ever paused to really consider that God
An Invaluable Part of the Body
Who Am I? I am an Invaluable Part of the Body of Christ. “For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function, so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another.” – Romans 12:4-5 Leaders naturally desire more
An Ambassador of Christ
Who Am I? I am an Ambassador of Christ. “We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God.” – 2 Corinthians 5:20 This verse has some incredibly good news, and also some incredibly bad news. The good news is that
God’s Masterpiece
Who Am I? I am God’s Masterpiece. “This is what the LORD says— your Redeemer, who formed you in the womb…” – Isaiah 44:24 In the fairytale Snow White, the Queen (step-mother) finds daily disappointment in looking in her mirror only to be told that her beauty doesn’t quite measure up to that of Snow
