A Review of Learning to Soar by Avery T. Willis
Feb 5th
Probably one of the most impacting Discipleship studies I’ve ever done was one called Masterlife. The author was Avery T. Willis. His humility and depth was apparent in the Masterlife material and I continued to read other projects he released. That latest project is Learning to Soar.
Learning to Soar uses Deuteronomy 32:11 as the basis More >
Review of Where Is God by Dr. John Townsend
Jan 25th
It’s a question that comes up often:
When your doctor gives you a report that’s not favorable.
When a loved one suddenly dies.
When your spouse decided he no longer wants to be married.
When disasters that destroy many lives occur.
And that question is “Where is God?”
Where is God is also the title of the latest great book by More >
A Review of Primal by Mark Batterson
Dec 22nd
I’ve been a Mark Batterson fan since his first book, In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day, was released. I like his writing style, his depth, and his Scripture insight. I’m an even bigger fan now with his new book, Primal.
Mark is one of the great thinkers among the latest generation More >
A Review of Green by Ted Dekker

Dec 15th
I used to read all the time and usually had several books going at one time. Then I went to seminary. Forced reading quinched my book hunger. But over the past couple of years I’ve gotten back into the reading swing of things.
One of my favorite Christian authors is Arthur Pink. Pink had an interesting More >
More “Deeper” Books
Sep 16th
Over the past year or so, I’ve found an author that has rocked my little world. Dallas Willard is a professor at USC, who translates mathematical books and equations from some dead European guy. Exciting reading, right? We’ll, he’s also written a few Christian related books that are simply awesome! These book are deep, and More >
Simple Church

Another book that will go on our Leadership Development Team reading list. Dr. Rainer is one of my favorite authors when it comes to church growth without the typical church growth baggage. The title says it all. Getting back to a simple church.
What Would It Look Like?
Jul 4th
What would it look like if your church transformed your community? What would it look like if LifePointe Church gave herself completely to God for whatever He desired to do? What would it look like if some small church, filled with God’s Spirit, in some small northeastern Mississippi town transformed the very fabric of More >
