Ministry
Flying Fleet
Yesterday, OG and I went to the metropolis of Due West, SC to speak in the chapel at Erskine College. Paul Patrick, chaplain, does a fantastic job leading students on that campus. I spoke on purity (any step away from God will always be too far). The majority of the content was chapter 5 of Freshman 15. Some times I …
Bad Church Sign of the Week: You Won’t Be Too Busy to Die
This week’s bad church sign states: “YOU WON’T BE TOO BUSY TO DIE.” While this church is trying to coax passerbys into coming to church now, I don’t know if this is the right message to send. I agree with this church that church attendance is helpful to one’s spiritual well-being. If people think they are too busy to come …

Have You Experienced Any Progress in YOU?
Due to the topic of leadership being such a discussed issue, it is easy to neglect the process of personal development. Since I desire to have a meaningful ministry and an effective presence for Jesus in this world, then I must commit myself to continual development.

Midweek Starts this Wednesday!
In 1 Peter 3:12 we are told, “For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayer.” What a wonderful privilege we have to be able to obtain the attention of our Savior! Prayer is a special component to the walk of any believer because it not only allows you to grow …
Bad Church Sign of the Week: Awakening the Goddess
This week’s bad church sign states: “ALL ARE WELCOME WOMENS GROUP AWAKENING THE GODDESS.” If it is a women’s group, are all truly welcome? Can men come to this women’s group? Which goddess needs to be awoken? I am kind of frightened to understand what type of church is on up this road. Many people have stopped focusing on the …

Rebellion from GRACE
Today was the second week in our GRACE series. To help us understand the gospel, we are using the acrostic “GRACE:” God, Rebellion, Atonement, Conversion, and Eternity. The gospel begins with God, but we messed it up through Rebellion. Our sinful ways separate us from God, and there must be a way back to God. We worshiped to: Here I …
