A Pleading God
Today I was overwhelmed by God’s mercy and His persistent pleading for us. As I was reading through Romans 8 today I ran across a few verses that brought me to tears(literally).
26And the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words. 27And the Father who...

It has been very helpful, biblical and...

Sinners in the Hands of a Loving God
Today I have been thinking about love and faithfulness. Probably because I have been reading out of Daniel and it’s getting closer to Christmas… When I think about it this quote keeps popping into my head it’s from one of the last scenes in a movie called,” The Last Kiss” and I feel like in resonates in every part of our life. The dad is lecturing his son in-law...

Same
I was reading through Matthew chapter 13 today, it’s the parables of the weeds. I’ll put the scripture at the end of this post so you can have a reference point. But, as I was reading something struck me. It said that the wheat and the weeds started growing together and would be separated later when it was time for the harvest (i.e. at death or judgment) because if they had uprooted...

Foundations II
Foundations II So it’s been awhile since I last posted a blog. I have gotten so caught up in twitter and everything else that I have been side tracking, and frankly have not had much to say. But briefly I would like to expand upon the Foundations thought. In my original post on this subject I was thinking that the “cool factor” was to blame for some of the cracks in the foundation of the church...

Foundations
If the building falls it not only affects the builder or the foundation, it not only affects every part of itself that has been working together to keep it running… It affects everything around it
The people
The ones who have been waiting for us to fail are always watching and they are watching a building that has started to crack and shift and poke holes in the very foundation it...

WOW!!!
Hey Guys,
Just to give you and update I am writing an article that I will post soon on the foundations of the church, how we can build on it and restore what we have destroyed.. Also, go get the book , ” The Secret Message of Jesus.” It’s really challenging me in my beliefs.
OK , now onto the real reason for this post….
The title WOW… is because I was checking to...
The Teacher
Jesus doesn’t just tell you what to think … he teaches you how to think by engaging you in conversation, asking you questions, breaking down your preconceptions.

This Book has really made me think, ” The Secret Message of Jesus.”
Whether you agree or disagree with Brian Mclaren his books are...
WHAT DEFINES YOU? DIVIDES YOU?
The other night I was about to fall asleep. I was in between being awake and asleep. I have found that this is usually when song ideas happen and when kind of revelational thoughts come into play for myself at least. So, anyways….
I woke up, Jenn (my wife) is asking where I am going and I don’t answer because I am so ADD that I would loose my train of thought, gone to the abyss forever. Which...

Why are we fighting??
This is what sparked this topic for me… I am always frustrated with the division in the religion of Christianity but it has some how just become the norm, kinda weird because I thought it was a religion based on unity and love and hope no matter where you are or were in life… i dont know… denominations? weird concept to me….Anyways what got me thinking about it again was reading all of these blogs...
Revolution!!!!!!
I think change is coming … the question is can we change? Or are we stuck in our ways? In everything , every portion of our life?
I wrote a song about 7 months ago with this theme of revolution:
On the rooftops screaming out for our King
Rise a Banner High for the world to see
Light a Fire Burning all through these streets
Revolution, Revolution
Marching onward closer to victory
Sound...
Accepting or Surrendering?
I was talking to one of the guys I work with the other day his name is Paul and we started talking about why people do what they do especially “Christians.” So, I start going on a rant about this and that and why I believe people are the way they are and why most Christians seems to be Luke warm. Then it happened one of those moments , I am sure you know what I am talking about the moment in...
Bathroom??
I am about to use one of the most ridiculous examples to prove a very simple point. I was at my Bachelor party, which was more like a weekend with my closest friends goofing off at a lodge in central Texas. There is something about being out in nature with all of your closest friends that brings out the so-called man in you. I actually laughed as I wrote that. So anyway I went down for breakfast...

Have you ever been in that moment? The one where you don’t know if you are awake or asleep, where your stuck in some kind of limbo in between the world you know and the one that exist in your head? Well, last night I found myself in just a place. This is a peculiar place to find yourself because you are not fully here, but your not fully there either, it’s like superman when he’s running to save...
