Life has a tendency to throw us into a tailspin at times. We get so overrun with emotions that we can’t even find center again. Our calendars fill to the point that we don’t even have an extra minute to our day. Demands of life pull us in a million different directions. Our job isn’t…
Life is full of ups and downs. I’m pretty sure we can all agree to that. Some days it seems like everything is going wrong. Then the next it seems as if we’re King Midas and everything we touch turns to gold (figuratively of course). But the more we experience these ups and downs in…
It’s always a great time when 10 high schoolers, 3 college students and a young adult gather in your living room. The sun was shining so we spent some time on the patio. We enjoyed a few tacos and then sat down for a little dirt talk.
Now I’ll be the first to admit that I’m a bit of a control freak. I like to feel the steering wheel in my hands. I don’t like to fly because I can’t pilot a plane. When we travel my wife never drives, well unless I’m dealing with one of those migraine can’t see straight…

Something happens in life and I’m not really sure when it happens. I just know that it does. I mean let’s be real. There was a time when the little things in life just excited me. I would be excited to wake up in the morning to a fresh coat of snow on the ground….
Each week during Lent, the weeks leading up to Easter, I composed a special poem just for that worship event. Well, on Easter morning I busted out a poem I wrote a few months ago. This poem is by far one of my favorites, perhaps I’m a little biased. I used this poem on Sunday…
Throughout the season of lent we’ve been looking at communion from different angles, gaining a deeper understanding of what this thing is that we do every single week. We’ve gazed at the fruit of knowledge and compared it to the fruit of life. We stood in awe of the daily bread that God provides. We…
Man sometimes life can just stink! I mean you plan and prepare and have everything all lined up and then WHAM! out of nowhere your day just goes down hill and I mean quick! It’s tempting in these moment to just throw in the towel and give up. It’s easy to just let that feeling…
