Interested in a couple of good reads regarding the church & its purpose? The verbiage is “missional” & these books I highlight, are a great place to start. I never signed-up just to do church. I am the church, love the church, and ultimately Jesus died & gave His life for the redemption of mankind, [...]
A Day after the Day!
Took the family to Mesquite for a little getaway following Sunday services. We haven’t been major vacation people, not sure why, but we do quick jaunts, and still create memories as a family. I will never regret spending money to create lasting memories.
We stayed at Highland Estates in Mesquite. Absolutely the best bang for our [...]
Called
I hung out with Kurt & Kelly Smith last night. A couple that just arrived back from Northern India, and ultimately are called to full time missions in India. This couple is truly called, and you hear it in their stories, their voices, their passion, etc…..It was refreshing sitting with people that know their call, [...]
Stuff
Is change in the air? It has to be!! Like it? More than likely you don’t, because studies have shown conclusively that the majority of people buck change, and in some cases really fight to keep it from happening. Why? I have my theories and maybe will share some of them down the road, but [...]
Abraham Lincoln Proclamation

By the President of the United States of America.
A Proclamation.
Whereas, the Senate of the United States, devoutly recognizing the Supreme Authority and just Government of Almighty God, in all the affairs of men and of nations, has, [...]

Council
“There’s wisdom in council!” Have you heard that somewhere before?:)
Last night our advisory council met for just over 3 hours. So much to cover, so many changes in the air, and we’re working to capitalize & harness energy that will advance the local church – “Glocally” (A word I recently heard that is used to [...]
Mom’s & Boy’s
I called my mom yesterday, and wished her a happy M-day. I almost forgot & that would’ve made today very bad!!:0 Not really, but I did almost forget. I do love my Mom & thank God for her nurturing, insight, love, cooking:), etc…. and for sticking with my Dad when the going got tough. I [...]

Decisions & Destinations
A quick reflection from a day spent with my oldest son Samuel. In Vegas we have year round schools, so he’s currently on track break, so I promised him some quality time while he was off for a month. I had a blast with him, and love being, and count it an honor to be [...]
