A Story Worth Repeating

ACTSblogpost

Have you ever told the same story over and over again? We all have our favorite life stories that we seem to tell anyone who will listen. Brandie and I recount our dating and engagement adventures. And, like anyone who has kids or grandkids, we talk about the adventures of our boys! As you considered the stories you repeat often, I wonder if your salvation story is among t...

Who’s Next?

ACTSblogpost

At some point over the last 10 weeks, you may have wondered, "What's next?" What is going to happen next, what other crisis will surface, will we ever get back to normal, when will I be able to hug a friend again, how is the economy going to rebound, what's the next show I can watch on Netflix, what's the next fad on Facebook now that we've all created an avatar. We have s...

On The Go

ACTSblogpost

As you and I are stuck at home these days, do you long for a vacation to an exotic location? You may be a beach person or a mountain person. You may be a nature lover or a city seeker. No matter what your dream vacation is, many of us love to be on the go. Even though our communities are slowly get back to "normal" activity, the command to be on the go with the gospel has ...

Not Perfect, Not Condemned

ACTSblogpost

As everyone has endured these last two months, we have experienced "family" in a way that few of us imagined. We are either together all the time or completely separated from family. As we look at one of my favorite passages of Scripture this week, I hope to bring purpose and encouragement to you and your family whether you are tired of seeing each other or you long to be ...

Never Silent

ACTSblogpost

When I was young, I watched one of the first reality TV shows ever... That's Incredible. It was hosted by Fran Tarkenton, the famous football player, and Cathy Lee Crosby. They showcased amazing people doing amazing things. Tiger Woods even made an appearance as a young boy. I'm sure they never imagined what Reality TV would become. In the book of Acts, I can only guess wh...

Your Story Matters

ACTSblogpost

Two months ago during our Prepare the Way Campaign, I shared a little of my salvation story because it was 35 years ago that I placed my faith in Jesus Christ. The "only" dramatic thing about my salvation story is that I went from being dead in my sin to alive in Christ! On the surface, I was as good as any middle-school boy could be and from a good family a top student, ...

Talking To Strangers

ACTSblogpost

Your parents probably taught you from a young age that you shouldn't talk to strangers. Well, that is probably good advice for a child walking the streets by himself or herself, but the Bible asks us to do just the opposite. It could be the stranger God places in front of you today - walking in your neighborhood, 6 feet in front of you at the grocery store, or sitting near...

Our Living Hope

easter blogpost new

I must say, this is the most unusual Easter of my life. However, as I have watched our church family and other churches rise to the challenge of this time, I am thrilled to celebrate our risen Savior with you! We will celebrate a little differently this year, but we all know the church is not the building, but the people. As the people of God, let us praise Him this Resurr...

A Grand Entrance

ps blogpost-1

If you have ever been to a hockey game and seen one of the player's score three goals, something amazing happens people begin to throw hats (and sometimes other things) onto the ice to celebrate and honor the player. In case you didn't know, scoring three goals in hockey is called a "hat trick." To have thousands of people celebrate and honor you at the same time is hard t...

Live for Him

ACTSblogpost

When Stephen, the first Christian martyr, was faced with a crisis of epic proportions, he responded with the gospel of Jesus. While on trial, Stephen looked directly in the face of his accusers and chronicled the history of Israel, pointing out that Israel had always been waiting for the Messiah, Jesus the Christ. In whatever crisis you may be facing today, the gospel is w...
