I’m sure there are differing views on whether integrating technology into various areas of the church should be considered a ministry or simply a necessity or even not necessary. It might almost be a non-issue in your mind. My intention is not to try to convince you to change your thinking on this but rather [...]

Should Pastors Blog OR How To Start Blogging OR Who Cares?

Posted on April 22, 2005 - Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment

I wasn’t sure how to title this post, so this is probably my first multi-titled blog. Oftentimes, I don’t even attempt a title til I’m done writing, so I’m not sure why my obssession with the title, in this case. Blogging is different than anything, many people question what a blog [...]

Posted on April 21, 2005 - Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment

Click below to read a powerful story of Terry and Patty coming to know Christ, not because of a crusade or a campmeeting or powerful preaching, but through relationship.

Welcome back

Posted on April 15, 2005 - Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment

This is just a great big welcome back to me! You know what they always say…Ignorance is bliss. However, in this case, ignorance just meant that I would blow my blog right out of the blogosphere.
