A Labor of Love!!

For about 4 months now I’ve been running around 9 or 10 o’clock at night.  The sun/heat absolutely crushes you if you run during the day, and I’m not a good morning runner (is there such thing as a good morning?:), so that leaves late evenings for me. My son Sam has been going with [...]

Stuff

Is change in the air?  It has to be!!  Like it?  More than likely you don’t, because studies have shown conclusively that the majority of people buck change, and in some cases really fight to keep it from happening.   Why? I have my theories and maybe will share some of them down the road, but [...]

Council

“There’s wisdom in council!”  Have you heard that somewhere before?:) Last night our advisory council met for just over 3 hours.  So much to cover, so many changes in the air, and we’re working to capitalize & harness energy that will advance the local church – “Glocally” (A word I recently heard that is used [...]

Decisions & Destinations

A quick reflection from a day spent with my oldest son Samuel.  In Vegas we have year round schools, so he’s currently on track break, so I promised him some quality time while he was off for a month.  I had a blast with him, and love being, and count it an honor to be [...]

The Basics of Biblical Finance

It was great having Dave Ramsey at www.epicchurchlv.org today. OK, not in person, but larger than life on our 9×12 screen. He really knocked it out of the park on “The Basics of Biblical Finance.” I’m looking forward to the weeks ahead, and the continuation of equipping the church on proper stewardship of the resources [...]

Loss

I’m sitting in Panera, getting ready t0 finish my teaching notes for tonight’s “EMMI” (Epic Men’s Mentoring Initiative). Before I move ahead I wanted to do a quick follow-up of a portion of what I covered at www.epicchurchlv.org. Pain of Loss! We all face loss at some time in our lives – right? Some of [...]

Pain Killer

I’ve just been sitting and writing on “The Pain of Loss” for tomorrows new message series entitled “Pain Killer”. I just completed a review of our current video support for such topics as Loss, Suffering, and Rejection that we’ll use for www.epicchurchlv.org. I’m moved with emotion as I think about the loss I’ve suffered in [...]

Rules of Life

Who doesn’t like control? Don’t say you! If you do, you’re already vying for it. I love conversations about control with friends and family, and I love being in control of them. When life feels out of control, which is most of the time, I……………… Here’s a few thoughts from Tim Sanford’s latest book “Losing [...]

The Grind

Sitting at “Its a Grind” coffee shop near my house doing a little reflection of this past week. I guess it all started………Just kidding, not going to write a dissertation for you. It has been a rough week!  The time change just jacked with my family.  Who would’ve thought?  Did it get you too?  Come [...]
