In some of Paul's final words before death, he urges Timothy to fan into flame the gift of God and to carry on the ministry by taking the things he has heard from Paul and passing them on to others who will then pass them on to others. How do we get the courage to carry out the big plans and dreams God has given us?
In my own final words before departing Memorial Presbyterian Church, I describe the new disciple-making and church-planting mission I will be pursuing in the coming days, months, and years.

Many of us know what it is like to walk around with body parts that just don't work the way they were designed to work. As body parts within the Body of Christ, are we working the way we are supposed to? CLICK HERE to listen and find out find out!

A sermon I preached August 31, 2008 at Memorial Presbyterian Church:
In the first six chapters of Acts, we see a cycle of activity where the Good News of Jesus Christ was spreading like wildfire. Nothing could stand in its way. In that cycle, we see several elements stand out that are repeatedly associated with this great revival. If we know and understand these elements, we will be better able to see and sustain true revival in our own lives.

From January 2007...
How does the Bible explain evil? Who is responsible for evil? Why is there so much evil in this world? Is God to blame? How can we find hope and assurance in the midst of suffering?

This sermon is long overdue for posting, but hopefully you may still find it fresh and relevant. The Lord did amazing things during our mission team's 2008 mission trip to Paraguay. This teaching was a constant theme for us over our 17 days. We also saw great moves of the Spirit as I preached the message in both Encarnacion, Paraguay and Posadas, Argentina.
Of course, on the trip, I had Pastor Donald Franz doing outstanding interpretation for me. This particular English-only version of the teaching comes from our Mission Sunday service where we reported on our trip and shared the message with our home church.
Summary: Why be satisfied with low expectancy, low experience Christianity? How can we experience all that God has for us and not settle for anything less? As we truly experience the fullness of Christ, we will truly be the world-changing disciples Jesus called us to be.

Being searched is not something that most of us typically enjoy. But what is it that caused David to actually want to be searched by God? Psalm 139 reveals what David had learned about God to bring him to this point of asking God to search him.
