If you aren’t familiar with who the Pharisees were, they were a group within the Jewish people that held leadership positions in the Sanhedrin, governing the nation of Israel and overseeing the temple. This was anContinueContinue reading “Facing Our Pharisee(ness)”
Father’s Day – Point People to Jesus
I had the opportunity on Father’s Day to be on a panel with some guys at my church. We had a great conversation about the need for intentional fathers and mentors.

Prayer is such a gift! Being able to communicate with the God of the universe is unlike anything else. Anyone can cry out to God at any time, but those that know God personally through a relationship with His Son Jesus can not only talk to God, but have His help to know what toContinueContinue reading ““God, give me wisdom.””
When You Feel Outnumbered

Our workplace, personalities, hobbies and interests, political leanings, personal preferences, favorite sports team…the list keeps going!

Student Discipleship Resource
I’ve really enjoyed having the opportunity to put together some resources for YM360, a ministry based in Birmingham that encourages students and student pastors and leaders with Gospel resources, camps and events. I recorded a two part video for student pastors and leaders about sermon and teaching preparation titled, “Different Settings Require Different Preparation”. IfContinueContinue reading “Student Discipleship Resource”
