Phineas and Ferb

I’ll admit.  I love Phineas and Ferb on Disney Channel.  My wife got me hooked.  They get to do all the things that I wanted to do as a kid. This show has some funny moments, but nothing beats this one. Haha!  I was eating supper last night when I saw it.  I almost spit [...]

Community Help Idea: Craigslist

As disciples of Jesus, we should be passionate about helping others; especially those who need help. Are you wanting to help your community, and be Jesus to the world?  Then here’s a simple idea.  Browse the Items Wanted section of your local Craigslist website.  Find someone who’s in need of something, and give it to [...]

Monday Morning Rewind #52

So, today marks my 52nd week of Rewind posts.  That’s an entire year’s worth.  It’s been great. Let’s keep going.  Here are a few thoughts from this past week: I love explaining the freedom of God’s love and forgiveness to people. Learn to say no. It helps you keep your priorities straight and to keep [...]

Better vs Good

Bridgett doesn’t like fortune cookies from Chinese restaurants (she’s weird, I know, but I love her) so I took hers the other day.  The fortune stated, “Better is the enemy of good.” Wow! One of the best fortunes I ever received. Too many people never strive for what’s better, because their satisfied with good.  Some [...]

I’m Grateful For…

Today is World Gratitude Day!  Did anyone else know that?  I didn’t until early this morning. Anyway, because it is World Gratitude Day, I would like to list the things of which I am most grateful.  To simplify this list, I’ve broken the items into three categories: Family, Friends, and Ministry. Note: When I started [...]

Monday Morning Rewind #51

Here are my thoughts over last week. It’s mind-blowing when God does something amazing.  Not that it should surprise us that God can do great things.  It’s just watching God do it is awesome. Last week was a very long and tiring week.  Really makes me appreciate when God gives me time to relax. I [...]

Bible URL Shortener

Since I’m a web geek I love coming across web apps that have the potential to make a person’s day easier.  Here’s a cool one: Wordof.GD.  It’s nothing but a simple URL shortener to reference Bible scripture.  Similar to Read.ly and Ref.ly. Let’s say you want to link to New Living Translation of John 3:16.  [...]

Simple Answers

Sometimes the simplest answers evade us.  Take this picture for instance. Now why didn’t I think of that instead of getting my fingers wet or not being able to dunk my entire cookie? There’s a principle defining this.  It’s called Occam’s Razor.  Also known as the simplest explanation is usually the correct one. I guess [...]

Monday Morning Rewind #50

Here are my thoughts over last week. Luke 1:37 NLT, “For nothing is impossible with God.” The mission of the Church is three-fold: to worship God, to disciple believers, and to evangelize to the unbelievers. A lot of work went into getting the new building ready for yesterday’s service at LGM’s new church building, but [...]

Monday Morning Rewind #49, Tuesday Edition

Since yesterday was Labor Day and, more importantly, since I was busy working at my church’s new building to get ready for our grand opening I didn’t get a chance to post my thoughts over last week.  So, here we are and here they are. God is awesome! Can I start by saying that?  Yes?  [...]
