We just finished a two week series on “Spiritual Warfare.” We focused on the truth that the christian life is a battle and that through Christ, we are free and victorious!
My younger brother, Justin has been making videos for a long time and continues to use his creative gift for God. He has a gift in film-making and I know that God is going to use him to reach many people for the gospel. Justin does a great job at youth events, camps, and retreats. I plan on using him for my spring beach retreat in April 2010!
Check out his website and his You-tube site for more videos and if you want to use him for you next ministry event.
Enjoyed spending time with my older brother, Jeff this past weekend. He spoke at a church in Bainbridge, GA on Sunday. We got to do some bow hunting on Thursday evening and Friday morning – good times.
The weather has been nice the past few days – nice and cool!
I’ve been burdened for some of our students – I’ve been praying for each one by name each day that they would get right with God. It hurts to know some are making choices that hurt God’s heart.
Went to the fair on Friday night with my beautiful wife – good times enjoying the night.
Really enjoyed time with the staff today – I love the people I get to serve along with at FBC Ashford.
Pumped about the NYWC conference in Atlanta later this month – This will be my first time going with my wife, the last two times I went I was single. Look forward to being encouraged and trained to better love each other and those we minister too.
My brother Jeff looked like Wolverine on Thursday – it was awesome (beard, hair, clothes, etc).
Heading to coach another JV basketball game tonight – I really enjoy it! Hoping to connect with more people in the community.
I’m hearing that November is “no shave november”? Is this true? I have begun a little “scruff” lately to commemorate the colder weather. haha.
We had a great time at the opening night of the National Peanut Festival. It is a huge deal here in Dothan, Alabama (Approximately half of the peanuts grown in the United States are grown within a 100-mile radius of Dothan, Alabama). We walked around for over 2 hours and still there was more to see. It was great to see friends and some of the students during the night. Here are some pictures of the night!
Check out this funny video – sadly it is true! Tim Hawkins does a great job using comedy to communicate truth.
America was built upon biblical principles that open the door for freedom, hard work and ingenuity. I’m continually focused upon not putting my faith in government but to continually focus on God’s promises in His Word. The smaller government stays will ensure liberty and a continued hope for hard-working people to get through this recession. The more government stays out of the way (and out of our pockets), I believe America can and will rebound if we make wise choices on our values.
“Once we roared like lions for liberty; now we bleat like sheep for security! The solution for America’s problem is not in terms of big government, but it is in big men over whom nobody stands in control but God.” Norman Vincent Peale
A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have.” Gerald Ford
Sunday recap: Great day of worship = great message, worship, small groups were awesome with the students, student leadership meeting was focused and a blast! Tim Flowers was ordained on Sunday evening – it was a special time to honor Him and God’s call on his life!
Spent some quality time with my wonderful wife this past weekend – went on a date to Olive Garden (points for me!) and spent Saturday together just enjoying the day.
Concert on Saturday night with Mercy Me and Fee was awesome! Great time of worship and focus on giving God all the glory!
Excited about hanging out with my older brother, Jeff this coming weekend – we are going hunting and hope to find some prey! We don’t get to see each other as often due to ministry, so this will be a fun time hanging out. He will be preaching in Bainbridge, GA this coming Sunday.
God has begun to provide for my wife, Cassidy to record her new album this coming December! I think it is going to rock and her music will minister to many people for Jesus.
Looking forward to sharing with the students on, “Supernatural: Angels and Demons” this coming Wednesday night. With all the hype of Halloween beginning, I want students to understand the reality of spiritual warfare and that in the end – we win! Light always beats darkness.
Feeling a little tired the past few days – not sure if it is just the time of year.
Excited to help the coach and the JV basketball team at the local high school here in Ashford, AL. Praying that I can be a light to the students and teach them to be ballers‘!
