Before we speak about what we believe, our lives should reflect Who we believe in.

Enjoying an evening serving with friend/mentor/colleague Mark Clifton, Dir. of Send Network Replant and Renewal team. Bringing the heat as usual at the Big God, Little Church Conference at First Baptist, Tulsa, Ok.

What happens in the hours nobody else has claimed?

The question isn’t simply, “How can I get more done?”

It’s: “Am I using the time God has given me for the things that matter most?”

🍂 Fall is a great time for new routines. Maybe one should be coming back to church.

It’s EVERYBODY WEEKEND across CrossPoint—a perfect first-time or comeback moment!

Hutchinson: Sat 5PM | Sun 8, 9:30 & 11AM

No CrossPoint near you? Find a local church. They’d love to see you.

Grateful to Union Baptist Association for bringing me to Houston to teach on Rhythms and spend time with some incredible leaders!

This NAMB Rural Director had fun in the big city. 😂 Rural or urban, the mission is the mission—and God is doing amazing things through His churches!

Why did John the Baptist say, “Get ready”?

Mark 1:1–8 begins with an urgent message: Someone greater is coming.

Some of the most meaningful rural ministry happens in bleachers, hospital rooms, funeral dinners and coffee shops.

This week’s Tuesday Rural Rundown explores The Ministry of Showing Up.

Sometimes you don’t need another program—you simply need to be present.

The hard questions your kids ask today can become the foundation for trust tomorrow. Meet their questions with honesty, grace, and biblical truth—and show them they can keep coming to you.

Hosea 4:12: “My people inquire of a piece of wood…”

Sounds dumb as a stump. 🪵

But are we any different when we seek every answer from the web and never seek God?

Information isn’t wisdom.

Before you ask the internet, ask the Lord. 🙏

Proverbs 18:1: “Whoever isolates himself seeks his own desire…”

Don’t do life alone.

The local church isn’t perfect—but it’s where we encourage, challenge, serve & grow together. And it’ll be even better with you.

PS: Forgive the noise. I live 3 blocks from the State Fair. 🎡

You are who God says you are: loved, redeemed, cared for, and a child of God. If you want to understand your true identity, get off social media and into God’s Word.

I’m so thankful and have so much respect for you that get up every day and grind it out because God gave you the ability to do it. May Labor Day be a day of rest and may you understand that you are appreciated.

After pastoring 30+ years, I’ve collected a good sized tote of artwork from kiddos.

Today, I received two pieces and they manifest the very distinct girl/boy differences as they approach listening to a sermon.

I’ll let you figure out which is which.

Boomer AI… it should be a thing.
