John Maxwell once wrote, “When I have integrity, my words and my deeds match up.” As a leader, it is possible to confuse influence with actual integrity. Just because my reputation with people is positive does not mean that my character before a holy God naturally corresponds. I desire that what those around me perceive of my character line up …
Sometimes I feel like doing this… Beware you who sit on the front row…
Three of the major world religions all claim the same source of beginning. Judaism, Christianity, and Islam all hold Abraham to be the man from whom their religion began. But all three of these religions arrive at a dramatic crossroads at the person of Jesus Christ. The message, ministry, and life of Christ forever separated these movements. The Crossroads series …
I had fun last night speaking at Anderson University’s FCA. I took Brian with me for prayer support and a time of C-Group sharpening, and we had a blast up there and back. Being on campus made me nostalgic thinking about picking up Amanda for dates in Anderson when she was in college there. Man, I am glad we are …
This week’s bad church sign states: “Will you go through God’s roadblock called salation into hell?” A friend sent this one to me and commented that the title of this church is quite humorous since they misspelled salvation. Funny stuff.

I would like to give props to Walt, Kimberly, Joshua, and …
After you become calloused to the culture, the next step is that you start compromising your own standards. While you once held to a certain desired level of holiness, you have now met somewhere in the middle between God’s standards and the standards of the culture. This compromise is anything less than God’s ideal. The prophet Jeremiah told his culture …
While I have been in school, I have been blessed to have some great professors pour into my life. One such mentor was Dr. Chuck Lawless while I worked on my Master’s degree from Southern Seminary (he is my adviser now for the current degree). In a course focusing on the logistics of ministry, Lawless gave the class practical tips …
I’ve had some of you contact the office about Sunday’s sermon. We did record it, but our website’s back end was experiencing difficulties (no pun intended, that’s really what they call it). Anyway, the message is up and all should be well in the world. Check it out here…
