    A meditation on the Gospel of John (Pt.1)

    I mentioned that in my last post, Sermon: Every Knee Shall Bow, that I had been really getting stoked by God’s Spirit as I was searching, studying, and meditating on the Gospel of John and Paul’s letter to the Romans. I shared a couple weeks ago the thoughts that had come from Romans about how [...]

    How We Met

    Last weekend Laurie and I hosted and led a marriage enrichment weekend retreat. We shared portions of our testimony with video curriculum to supplement the teaching. One of the testimonials was me sharing some of the “standing stones” aka “God-encounter-markers” of my life. I have uploaded a .pdf copy here for reading.

    Heavy Bookbag…

    I’ve been blogging and maintaining my church website for the last two plus weeks and it’s causing me to feel like my own site is reeling from “Cinderella syndrome,” so I’m going to give it a little love today by throwing down a few posts.
    First up, I thought I’d let you in on what’s in [...]

    New Testament Challenge

    Just a friendly reminder that most of my blogging energy, for the time being, is being channeled over on my church’s website www.valleychapel.org/blogs - We are undertaking a challenge as a congregation to read through the New Testament scriptures through the next ten weeks (well…8 and a half weeks now remain). I’m sharing my journal thoughts [...]

    Mo’ JP

    I’ve said it before, but I’ll repeat it again…I love John Piper. Don’t hold fast to everything he says or does, but I love the fervency and unabashed way that he shares the bold truth of God’s word. I recently read a quote from JP (can’t remember the book…either Vintage Jesus by Mark Driscoll or [...]

    “Mark” these words…and more

    So I started digging and meditating on the Gospel of Mark about a month ago; and before that, I was spending time in the Gospel of Luke (my gospel readings for this particular stretch of study began “officially” on June 25…for anyone keeping track -smile-). For what it’s worth, I’ll be moving into the Gospel [...]

    Reviewing the “Wild Goose Chase” (pt. 1)

    Wild Goose Chase (pt. 1)
    I received my copies of Mark Batterson’s  Wild Goose Chase a few days ago. My schedule prevents me from reading it through in just a couple of sittings, so I plan to post a multi-part review in order to be as comprehensive and “fresh” as I possibly can with my opinion [...]

    Remarks from Mark

    I’ve been spending time in the Gospel of Mark recently and over the past week have lingered over the following remarks by Jesus:

    Mark 9:49 - “…everyone will be tested with fire.”
    Mark 10:24 - “Dear children, it is very hard to enter the Kingdom of God.”
    Mark 12:24 - “Your mistake is that you don’t know the scriptures…”
    Mark [...]
