Hurting Students

Every week I talk to teenagers who are just hurting. Last night that was the case as well. There are so many teens that are struggling because of their home life, pressure at school, and a desire for worth. It breaks my heart. Please pray for our teenagers across America. They have so much potential yet I believe are facing more pressure and temptations than any generation that has gone before them.

I Love My Family

Hanging out with the family in Tampa at Channelside. I love that place.

The Year to Watch the NBA

I've been watching the NBA Playoff games the last few nights and I've gotten really excited about them. I think the NBA might be getting back to the glory days. I haven't been this interested since the Michael Jordan era. There are definitely some exciting players to watch, Lebron James, Kobe Bryant, Dwight Howard, Chris Paul, Dwayne Wade, and many more. It's going to be a great few weeks.

Brandon High School

I got the opportunity to speak at a Club in Brandon High School this morning. I always love getting to speak in schools. God is continuing to do great things in that school. I'm so proud of all of our students that are standing strong for Christ there.

Town Hall For Hope

On April 23rd across America Dave Ramsey is doing a huge event. Thousands of churches and businesses are hosting this event. It's a financial message of hope during this tough time. Our church is hosting the event at 8 p.m. if you are in the Brandon area.

New Movie

I just heard about a new Christian film called The River Within. The reason that this interests me is that it is about a youth minister but what's cooler is that it was filmed in Paragould, Arkansas. Paragould was where I took my first Youth Ministry job. I served there for 2 and a half years. It's a low budget film but I hope to see it. Check out the link below for a preview.

Chris Allen

We are less than 2 weeks away from having the Chris Allen Band here. We'll meet in the Loft at 10:30 a.m. for a time of worship. They are an amazing band out of Orlando. Please be in prayer for their ministry.

Please Pray for Me

This weekend I'll be going up to Brooksville, Fl to speak at a Youth Leadership Retreat. I'm really looking forward to it. There are 3 or 4 churches that have come together to put on a retreat to challenge their students to become stronger leaders. I love talking about leadership especially with students. Please pray that God will speak through me and that these teenagers that attend will go back to their schools and churches and lead in great ways for the Lord. Thank you so much.
