    Scriptures from Rooted: Week 4

    I've just added a .pdf file of all the Bible verses I used in the message last Sunday on Prayer. You can click on the links below to get all the verses from each week of the series so far. We're covering a lot of Scripture, many times very fast. I think you'll benefit from going back and spending a little more time with the passages. I hope these are useful to you.Rooted: Week 4 - Prayer Rooted: Week 3 - The...

    Weekend Highlights

    Sunday was just a really good day at LifePointe Church. Our attendance was back up to our summer average after a July 4th dive. Quite a few new faces, as well, which is always exciting.Our band increased in size, with a couple of our young ladies singing the opening song. They did a really good job with the song "Give Me Your Eyes." For the rest of our worship time, one of our guys sang backup. I love seeing...

    Sunday Recap

    Today was a tough and bittersweet day at LifePointe. We had a wonderful service but was tempered by a bit of down news. Today was the last day our present band played for us on a regular basis. For the past 8-10 months several members of our band have played at two churches, all on Sunday morning. They sacrificed their time to help us have the best worship music we could provide. We're thankful God brought alone...

    Weekend to Remember

    Last weekend, I had someone preach the Sunday message at LifePointe Church for me. Meanwhile I was off on an adventure, spending 72 hours with a bunch of other guys holed up away from civilization and technology. We were all participating in The Walk to Emmaus.My Walk to Emmaus was one of my most meaningful times with Jesus in many years, maybe ever. I can say that I truly had a weekend with my Lord. I was able...

    Weekend Recap

    Sunday was a very special time at LifePointe Church. There was a lot going on, and it was all good. I'd have to say Sunday's service was one of the most holy times we've ever had in our short existence.We had baptism, the third time this year. With four baptized, that makes ten in 2010, and fourteen since Thanksgiving. There was a mom and son baptized, along with a father and step-daughter. It's always moving to...

    Sunday Review

    LifePointe Church had a fantastic day today. We're still down a bit in attendance, but baseball and softball are about to wrap up. So when everyone gets back we're going to be pressed for room. A great problem to have. Bob, our worship leader, was out today. This left James to lead the worship. Today was his first go at it and I have to say he did a great job! With Drew on drums, there were four young ladies...

We shared similar stories within the ministry, one of which we both grew up or lived in Amory, Mississippi. He and I would talk, complain, dream, and pray with each …click here to continue reading…

I’m exhausted so this will probably be quick. AWESOME DAY at Catalyst. Let me see if I can remember enough to give you a quick rundown. I may leave out some people. Hope not. Great opening.

One of my most favorite blogs for church planters and leaders is Swerve, the blog of Craig Groeschel, pastor at LifeChurch.tv. Craig always, I mean always, hits on stuff that I need to hear. If you’re a church planter, pastor, or church leader, Swerve should be a daily read for you. Check out this week’s …click here to continue reading…
