Since it seems that today has been a sports-themed day, I thought I would share this video with you that I found while uploading tomorrow’s worship video. This is a game between the Brooklyn Cyclones and the Staten Island Yankees. What happens when a switch pitcher meets a switch hitter? Even the umpires are unprepared [...]

What Giants Are You Facing?

When I say the word “giant,” what do you comes to your mind. Perhaps the fairy tale “Jack and the Beanstalk.” Perhaps you’re more sports minded and you think about the San Francisco Giants or perhaps the New York (football) Giants. Those of you who are more spiritual, might think of Caleb and Joshua and [...]
Another Blogging Milestone

Yesterday, when I went to check the stats for this blog, I found out that Pam and I have crossed another milestone. Yesterday, we went over the 1000 post mark. I know for me it seems hard to believe. I never considered myself a writer, but here I am two years later, with some help [...]

Cruddy Buddies

A couple of days our District Superintendent came to visit Dale and myself. It was a pastoral visit. He just stopped by to see us. During his visited he asked us a question “do you have cruddy buddies?” We knew what he was talking about—were we developing intentional relationships with non-believers outside the church. We [...]

What a beautiful day we had here on the Southside. It’s 63 degrees at 11:00 PM which is highly unusual in the summer. Today, James and I spent some time preparing for Mosaic by covering up the windows of the basement, so we could show “Facing the Giants.” It was really dark in there by [...]
