180 Weekend

What an amazing Weekend we had. God moved in amazing ways. Our students truly worshipped and it was Awesome. Thanks to everyone who helped make this possible and thank you students for being so great.

180 Weekend

Tonight our big 180 Weekend (Disciple Now)starts up. These weekends are always so exciting and God always does a great work in lives. I'm praying that He will do the same this weekend. I'm praying that God will change lives for eternity through this weekend. I'm praying that damaged and hurt students will be healed. I'm praying that worshippers will rise up. I'm praying that the lost will be saved. Please pray with me that this will be a weekend they will never forget because of all that God has done in them.

We can do More Together

Today I had an amazing meeting with Youth Pastors from 8 different churches around the Brandon area. We are looking at and praying through joining forces for an event in September. At the meeting I was amazed at the humility and willingness to work together to make a difference for the Kingdom of God and to reach the students of our city. I feel so blessed to work in a town where we want to see God's name lifted up and not our own name or our own church's name.

It is such a temptation to want to only grow our student ministry or our church and so we sometimes get on our own island and try to avoid other churches because of fear that our people will go there. I actually think, however, that when we lift up other ministries in prayer and work together that it will only help our own ministries.

I love in John 3:30 where John says, "He must become greater and I must become less." Let us be reminded of this in ministry. It is about Jesus and making His name known, it's not about us.

Saints Win It!!!

We've taken our Students to New Orleans for the past 3 years to help rebuild the city after the Hurricane. It was great seeing the Saints win and to see how far the city has come. Way to go Saints!!!

New Baby on the Way!!!

I haven't had a chance to mention our new addition coming here on the blog yet. We found out last week that my wife Jenna is pregnant. The due date is tentatively September 28th. We are extremely excited and counting down the days already. Please keep us in your prayers. Emma is now 18 months, it's hard to believe she's that old now. This time has absolutely flown by. She is such a joy and we're all glad that she is looking more and more like her Momma. I believe we'll get some pictures in early March of the baby and I'll be sure to post them once we get them. Thanks for reading.
