Sunday Rundown
Mar 14th
We had a really good day today at LifePointe Church. The excitement was back up again today and there was a strong sense of God’s Spirit in our presence.
The band was on top of their game. James sat in with the band on guitar for the first time and he did great. They didn’t miss More >
Helping Amory and Monroe County
Mar 11th
I’m looking for some feedback for a project I’m starting. If you are a current or former resident of Amory, Mississippi, or Monroe County, Mississippi (Aberdeen, Hatley, Smithville, Nettleton, Hamilton, or anywhere else), could you help me out? I’m hoping that you guys will help me out by giving me your feedback on the following More >
Sent: Video Intro
Mar 9th
Last Sunday we began a brand new series at LifePointe called SENT. We’re exploring the “sentness” of God’s people. We put together a video for the series intro and I thought I would share it with you. You can get a little better glimpse of our community. Take a look.

Amory MS Demographics
Mar 8th
A church wanting to be on mission in their town will want to know how their community is shaped economically, racially, and in many other categories. If you’re curious about our community, Amory, Mississippi, here a quick little chart generated at the website zipskinny.com. Very interesting, wouldn’t you say? See anything that stands out or More >
Sunday Recap
Mar 7th
We are having the best weekend weather we’ve had down here in Mississippi since last October. And we could tell it with our attendance today, which was probably at its lowest in six months. But we still had an amazing service.
We began our new series for March: SENT. I think this will be one More >
Velocity 2010 Summary
Mar 5th
Last Monday and Tuesday, several of us from LifePointe Church made the trek to Cumming, Georgia, for the Velocity 2010 Conference. Velocity was presented by churchplanters.com and hosted at Mountain Lake Church.
Instead of giving you a play by play, I’ll give you a summary of what moved me most. While all sessions and speakers brought More >
Sunday Awesomeness
Feb 28th
LifePointe had another really big day Sunday. Our worship service was so, so good. Our worship band played great but really broke it down and unplugged for “Heart of Worship.” Their rendition was very moving and listening to everyone singing moved me. The presence and Spirit of God was so strong, so real, it had More >
Powerful Sunday
Feb 21st
I’m running out of adjectives to describe the services at LifePointe Church. I’ll just use two: powerful, Spirit-filled.
From the moment I got up this morning I felt the Holy Spirit was preparing me for a powerful day. And I was not disappointed. In fact, I would go so far as to say we had the More >
Strong Weakness
Feb 20th
It’s been one of THOSE weeks, a week where nothing seems to go as planned. Add to that a few big interruptions (my wife’s wrecked car and ensuing insurance wrangling) and everything just seems to fall apart.
Weeks like this remind me I really don’t have a whole lot of control over the circumstances of life. More >
Baptism Celebration
Feb 14th
When we do baptism at LifePointe, we celebrate. We celebrated times three today! Seeing people publicly acknowledge Jesus never gets old. We don’t have the fanciest baptistery (we use a cattle water trough), but we do have lots of enthusiasm. Thanks for letting me be a part of your faith journey Skyler, Candace, and Jim. More >
