Fullness of Christ
I love my smoker I bought my first wood smoker nine years ago. Starting off slowly, I worked my way up from smoking pork roasts to smoking fish, nuts, and cheeses. It’s made me a foodie. I wouldn’t call myself anything more than an amateur, but I’ve developed a love...
Don’t underestimate the power of today
I’ve had a saying I wrote in a journal close to twelve years ago that has stuck with me. It’s something God’s used to keep me in the present. It goes something like this… “You spend too much time in yesterday. You overestimate tomorrow. But you vastly...
Just to be fair, here’s mine
Last week I shared the story of Nicky and her adventure with Spidzilla. I was asked to share what I was afraid of after last week’s post. And I’m not too proud to talk about it, but just proud enough that I resisted writing about it. It’s sort of hard to undo once...
The most important thing about you
It’s Huge and ugly and scary! We had just finished our small group Sunday night at BNC, and I heard these words over my daughter’s call to my wife. Now that would be normal had this been my wife’s phone and my daughter had called her. But no, this was my wife’s voice....
A brief thought on servanthood
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. For all the married guys out there, that was a shock to the system. They just realized that they’ve forgotten and now need to scramble to figure something out. (By the way, it’s this Sunday, so ya better hurry!) And while...
A series of unwise decisions
If I may hate something and not sin, it would be plumbing. And garbage disposals. Plumbing has no redeeming qualities for me. None. I’m not convinced that Jesus can’t even redeem plumbing. There are heaps of other unpleasant activities to subject myself to, then touch...
100 Chicken Nuggets
A Full Day It had been a busy day full of cleaning, sorting, rearranging, building, and repairing, as we cleaned out one really messy walk-in closet in our home. When I say messy, what I really mean to say is that it was overflowing with stuff. Stuff from last...
How to pray with your whole being
It’s a new year. And I’ll bet like many of you, you are looking at making some changes. It might be diet, exercise, getting organized, or resolving to not binge watch Netflix, Disney+, or YouTube. Whatever it is, you’ve likely got a resolution you’ve contemplated....
We can trust God to redeem what seems unredeemable
A new year is here! 2020 is over, but don’t count it a total loss. Trust God with it. We are all thinking it, I’m sure. Boy, I’m glad 2020 is over with. But should we be thinking that way? I can look back at some really amazing moments in 2020. Memories that would not...YouTube

Why VBS...Kids develop new friendships.![]()
![]()
While it’s true that your child might not get to be with his or her very best friend, your child will have wonderful opportunities to make new friends and interact with a new group of children. Most of us assume that age-graded classes are the best way to go, simply because that has been our only experience. However, studies show that children learn as much—or more—when they’re linked with kids of different ages. And studies indicate that children often choose to play with children of other ages. Encourage your child to try something different—he or she might be surprised!
