Southbrook Urban Legends, Part 2
Urban Legend #2: The teaching just isn’t deep there anymore now that they’ve switched the focus to lost people.
This one would be funny if it wasn’t so sad.
About a year and a half ago I made the decision to go even deeper on the weekends, use more scripture and share more stories from the greatest […]

Southbrook Urban Legends, Part 1
Ever been to this website before? It’s just one of the many that explore some of the urban legends we’ve all heard over the years. These websites attempt to either verify them or chase down the source of the joke (although some of them are anything but funny). There was the one about the razer […]

Southbrook Ignited!
We’ll announce the digits this coming weekend, but I couldn’t wait that long to celebrate!
What an awesome day we had under the tent!
One church gathered for, one service under one vision to give one sacrifice!
And it happened. The finals aren’t in yet peeps, but you all will be the first to know! Anyway, that’s not […]

One Vision, One Church @ One Service for One Sacrifice!
I can hardly wait for this weekend!
No, it’s not because I only have to preach one time.
No, not because I love camping (though I do) so much and we are having church outside in a ginormous tent.
No, not even the killer music or awesome weather they are calling for…
It’s because we all get to be […]

Descending into greatness, part 3
It was the Best of Times, It was the Worst of Times.
Some people are just naturally mean spirited.
The above title (if not the actual book) has always fascinated me. How could you look back at a year (or several years) and declare it was both the best year and the worst year?
That was […]

California Fires
An Eternal Perspective
I’m from California — born and somewhat raised. It’s difficult to see the devastation and loss these many fires are causing.
I thought about this, and family and so forth this morning. Most of my friends and family know the Lord, so some may encounter temporary loss, but this puts a whole new […]

Descending into greatness, Part 2
Wow! Looks like my take on “true or false” teachers and religions caused quite a stir.
I’m not surprised. In a politically correct, tolerant, anti-Christian, truth is relative kind of climate, what I had to say sticks out like a fat man wearing a speedo at Newport Beach. I’m also not surprised because of what this […]

Descending Into Greatness, Part 1
True or False?
The other day someone asked me if I thought all the explosive church growth going on around America right now were a good thing.
Huh?
Isn’t that a no-brainer?
Actually…
No, it’s not.
He followed up his inquiry by asking whether or not I considered the unprecedented growth we’ve experienced at Southbrook to be […]

Champion(s) of the week!
Body Slam!
by God
This weekend I got totally body slammed by God via my wife!
No, I’m not saying Michelle can beat me up (though I wouldn’t mess with her if I were you). I’m saying that some of the most profound stuff that God has ever told me have been through my wife, […]

Don’t miss this weekend!
Whatever you do, don’t miss this weekend at Southbrook Church! And this is the weekend to invite everyone you know as well because we are going to do one of the coolest, flat out AWESOME things we’ve ever done!
It’s even a bit risky!
I’m a little scared, truth be known.
So here’s what I want you to […]

Incredibly valuable secret stuff!
Ok, did that get your attention?
Good.
People ask me how the old blog is doing from time to time, so here it is in a nutshell.
Pretty good…I guess.
What’s good?
Since we started (officially, in March of this year — though I had a short stint on blogger before launching robsingleton.net) we’ve grown from an average of 50 […]

Danger Will Robinson!
Remember this show?
Lost in Space.
It was, bar none, my favorite show growing up. It had already been on for a few years by the time I was old enough to track with it, and other shows like, ‘Star Trek’ were already beginning to take the luster off of my new discovery (kind of like ‘Heroes’ […]

A ‘convenient’ inconvenient truth
Funny, add one step to this now infamous ‘Al Gore’ headliner and you have to really think about it before it makes sense. That being said, let me explain. I’m applying this to “Christians” who love the ‘get outta Hell free card’ they acquire when they trust in Christ for their salvation, but hate the, […]

Lost, Part 2
DANGER! Quicksand!
When someone is lost their reaction is often more like someone sinking in quick sand than someone formulating a plan to ‘get found.’ I’ve heard it said that the very worst thing you can do when you are sinking in quick sand is to ‘fight hard and make quick and jerky motions.
It only hastens […]
