Confess or Acknowledge? Part 2
Can you believe I’m writing on this?
Can you believe you’re reading it?
It’s sad but true, Christians today are opting out of confessing their sins right and left. It just isn’t the postmodern thing to do I guess.
And what is?
Well, we can’t simply sweep the crap we do to each other under the carpet. It would [...]

I had to sneak this in!
I love to brag on God!
We haven’t even had this morning’s Sunday services yet, and already dozens have stepped up and responded to God’s call to Southbrook Monroe!
That’s right, our 3rd campus (with the fourth soon to follow) including our ‘on campus’ video venue, is about to launch and I was hoping to have [...]

Confess or Acknowledge? Part 1
You might think this question is a bit of a no-brainer, and I must say…
It should be.
Even a casual reading of God’s Word makes it obvious that God does not find these two terms to be interchangeable.
But here’s the rub…Christians do!
Actually it’s worse than that. They don’t really find the terms [...]

Top 8 Signs you’ve waited too long to birth
I’ve never shared this with you all before, but, for what it’s worth, here’s what I believe is the single greatest killer of small group ministries across the nation.
It’s not a deadly virus.
It’s not a lack of enthusiasm.
It’s not an unwillingness to meet in homes.
It’s not a lack of good, qualified [...]

Frivolous Friendships Finally Finished.
Last time we discovered the obvious together (actually, you already knew, but I had to be reminded that)…
“I show signs of a “work in progress.”
Hey, at least I admit it.
Do you?
Actually, we all do. The dream may often come fast, but then, before that dream is ever really solidified, comes spiritual boot camp.
You [...]

If I hear this one more time, I’ll have to join Perry Noble and the, ‘throat punchers anonymous’ club! Sopranos Style! Part 2
Thought I forgot this one didn’t you?
Thought I got fired up about pounding on the one, ‘bad egg’ lay leader while forgetting the all too common, ‘pastor run amok,’ didn’t you?
It’s ok, maybe you don’t know me that well yet. If you did then you’d realize I try my best to be an equal [...]

Holy Discontent
We get fired up a lot around here about everything that’s going right!
It’s easy to do, but there are a few things that are going wrong.
They get me fired up as well.
There are more and more lost people moving into our area everyday. They are hell-bounders without the love and forgiveness Jesus Christ offers.
And you [...]

Do Numbers Matter? Part 2
See part 1 to catch up.
Do Numbers Matter?…continued…
So when I often hear people, especially Christians, comment on how we should not get “hung up” on numbers, I think I understand what they mean. They probably mean that we should not make numbers the measure of success or the means to happiness [...]

Champions of the week
Talk about a no-brainer. The heroes of Southbrook, the freaks of the week, the servants who put others first for the past week were none other than the 1st Impression team members and volunteers who made everything go so smoothly for the spontaneous baptism! Thanks to all of you for your hard work 2 weeks [...]

1 for 1 as a prophet! This weekend was off the hook!
Since in the Old Testament the requirement for a true prophet of God was 100% accuracy—or else! (one false prophecy and they stoned you to death!), I think I’ll take this opportunity to announce my retirement!
This weekend really was one of the very best weekends in the history of Southbrook Church! But the truth is, times like these [...]

Do Numbers Matter? Part One
I read an editorial over the Thanksgiving Holiday that essentially said American culture was broken and beyond repair. It cited our consumerist mentality, skyrocketing divorce rate, obsession with entertainment, and the willingness of many to camp out for days to [...]

Prediction: This will be One of the Most incredible weekends in the history of Southbrook!
I can’t tell you what we’re doing (well, I could, but I’m not going to) but suffice it to say, it will be a weekend no one will soon forget.
Oh, you mean because we’re having church outside?
No.
You mean because the youth ministry is putting on an elaborate feast?
No, no. That’s not it either.
Then it’s the [...]

If I hear this one more time, I’ll have to join Perry Noble and the, ‘throat punchers anonymous’ club! — Part I
I talked to a former pastor today and heard his story about why he is no longer in ministry. It was heart breaking on a million different levels, not the least of which is the fact that it keeps happening over and over and over again!
History keeps repeating itself.
The faces change, but the brains do [...]

More Frivolous Friendship Stuff…
When we left off, we were trying to comprehend why in the world King Saul’s son and heir would give it all up for…
a shepherd boy…
continued…
If you remember, Jonathan’s the one who commands the third of the army that Saul doesn’t have command over. Yet who is it who suggests this covenant? [...]
