I'm excited to announce my wife and I are planting a new church in Rochester, NY this year! Follow Flower City Church on Facebook https://t.co/tFRyQSy5U1 and Instagram https://t.co/LT3yvEdolh for updates!
Preparing for a new semester @ElimBible. Elim's teachers know we're here to impart information that leads to life transformation! Friends, if you pray would you include Elim? Ask the Lord to fill this place with His Holy Spirit to change lives & equip a new generation of leaders!
@bibleproject Thank you! Our church @ElimGospel is interested in partnering with you through what you're offering during the COVID19 shutdown. One idea is to have weekly online small groups use your material for the study/discussion part of mtgs - what's the best way we can partner?
I would be honored if you took a few minutes to read about this turning-point moment in my life story, and I'd love to hear what you think about it!

Sharing tonight @TheCityChurchny on following Jesus through times of trouble. I'm asking God to touch people who need to encounter his loving presence and peace in their pain. If you feel prompted by the Lord to lift this ministry time in prayer, please PM me. Thanks!
Friends, I want to share with you a very special moment from my life story. I hope you enjoy reading.

Great leaders use influence, power, and prestige to help others instead of themselves. They build up and empower. I've been blessed to know many leaders like that. All of them were people seeking to live and lead like Jesus. I don't think that's a coincidence. Let's do the same!
It's a sad mistake to judge the fiery excitement of passionate believers as "excessive" or "immature" if the real truth is they're simply more excited than you. They're a God-sent reminder of the overflowing love & joy that come when we fill up on the goodness of the Lord.
Found this group of students enjoying a break in the weather- below zero just a few days ago to sunshine and 60 degrees! Lunch on the porch of @ElimBible's historic Spencer building.
People you love can do very unloving things. As Christ followers, we can show our true colors and let Jesus love them THROUGH us. Let's be conduits of his love and walk in the power of 1 Peter 4:8 "Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins."
Dear Christian, be like a crackling fire on a cold winter’s day—so full of the warmth of the love of God & so hot with the fire of the Holy Spirit that those chilled by a harsh, bitter world are drawn to what you have, the life-warming, soul-thawing grace found in following Jesus
@ElimGospel is hosting the @ElimBible Pastoral Ministry class, practical windows into church & ministry with @jaredruddy & @dcowburn - great stuff, thank you!
Hosting Pastors Mika & Rommy Yrjola live from Helsinki, Finland in Elim's Zoom room! Real-life stories & principles from this great couple, makes classroom material come alive. They were seniors when Emily & I were freshmen, now their oldest is a senior, she was in class today 😊
