I googled “North Side Baptist Greenwood” this morning, and I came across an article that I had forgotten that had been written about North Side a few months ago. This article is from the Baptist Press. Posted on Apr 3, 2007 | by Marilyn Stewart NEW ORLEANS (BP)–With a mission strategy of getting plugged into the world, Northside Baptist Church …
What would happen to Greenwood tomorrow morning if North Side Baptist Church ceased to be? What would take place in our community if our church’s presence in the community completely vanished? Would it be tragic or even noticeable? Would people miss a building or would they miss a movement? Would they realize only the numbers missed versus the lives transformed? …
Just a reminder that North Side is having its Thanksgiving Dinner this Sunday at 5:30 pm at the YMCA. If you haven’t signed up, please sign up here so that we know how many to expect. It’s going to be a great night just because I love getting together with the whole family to thank God for all he has …
Tonight at Fusion, we talked about how greed affects how we make a difference in the world. It’s hard to change the world if that takes finances that we are reluctant to give back to God. One of the main reasons college students and 20-somethings have a hard time giving financially is because they have gotten themselves in huge financial …
Do you ever feel shameful concerning your attempts (or the lack thereof) of sharing your faith? It’s one of those areas that everyone feels guilty that they could be doing more. And it’s probably true. This is something I struggle with often. It’s great that Paul gives us some tips out of Colossians 4 on how to begin to share …
My wonderful wife, Amanda, has slaved so very hard as of late and is about to graduate with her Master’s from USC in Music Education this Saturday. We are so very excited now that we will have Monday evenings where one of us is not in school and every free moment is not dedicated to some book to be read …
Here is a neat testimony that happenned the other night at Engage when we presented the gospel with those kids: Janel and I had the opportunity to talk with three girls, only one who was really old enough to comprehend the gospel. The other little girls just sat there on our laps and played with the grass. However, one girl …
Reading in Galatians this morning, and I came across a fitting verse for this morning. It reads, “But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and worthless elementary principles of the world, whose slaves you want to be once more?” (Gal. 4:9). How …
An interesting conversation developed today in class. The school at Southern Seminary at which I am getting my degree is called the Billy Graham School of Missions, Evangelism and Church Growth. The dean was asking us about what kind of connotations the term “Church Growth” gives. Some people, believe that the Church Growth Movement (labeling anything as creativity or different …
Missions is going crazy this summer! I love it. I just have been reading up on our Romania team at their blog, it’s great stuff. Most of this team have never taken a trip like this, so it is incredible to see all that they are doing – pray for them and check them out here: Romania Team’s blog.
We started our backyard Bible club in Abbeville last night for n*gage. We are taking college students and 20-somethings to a park and investing in these kids’ lives for the summer on every Tuesday night. Last night was great. The kids were wonderful. So much fun. I got to meet some of their parents last night who were very appreciative …
Tonight we started the mission project for 20-somethings in Greenwood called n*gage. On Tuesdays this summer, meet us at the Lander Baptist Student Center for free Chick-fil-a, Bible study, and then to go out on a mission project. Next Tuesday we are going to run the Mega Relay for our Shake-n-Shine camp. And then the next eight weeks, we will …
