I want to take a moment to let all of my readers know about a free concert this Saturday evening at Crossroads. This was not really advertised to the entire church, so consider yourself an insider if you read this. Our worship leader, Joe Miller, will be reuniting with his […]
As many of you know, we have been in the middle of a construction project to add a youth facility to our building. This week began the process of connecting the two buildings. Everything is tore up right now to make way for the new foyer. For those of you […]
I have been so busy for the past 2 days that I realized I forgot to let all of you know the results of our Variance Request. I must admit when the mayor came to see us personally and said there was some opposition, I got a little concerned. But […]

This weekend we are going to be talking about authority in the home and especially in the marriage relationship. I can’t wait for this weekend. It might create some really uncomfortable moments for husbands and wives. My hope is that both husbands and wives will realize that God’s role for […]

I’ll never forget the words that Ed Young spoke when at the C3 conference years ago. He had this to say about delegation: “You must INSPECT what you EXPECT” I remember a story Ed told about how he INSPECTED what he put in place. They set up new guidelines for […]
