As I have been preparing to speak at Kairos this weekend, I read the following…
“In doing this, we of course are not just counting on our own cleverness & ability but stand in expectation of help from the Spirit of truth who is constantly at work in the disciples of Jesus. We do all we […]

…driving down Sunset Blvd last night, on our way to Eugene’s & Eun Chu’s for small group (canvas group). My camera on my phone, did not do the sight justice. It was an astonishing urban sunset.
& then I read this today in the Divine Conspiracy that reminded me of the sunset…

Many days living out here in Hollywood/LA — seems like a surreal adventure, as we are (by the grace of God) — attempting to continue planting missional churches in the urban area of LA. Other days — it does not feel like an adventure — it just feels like survival.

Hello again. Sorry I have been away for such a long time…
In my younger days, I used to read a fair amount of stuff by Bill Hybels, the pastor at Willow Creek. I have not read anything by him in a long time — not sure why that is?
Anyway, I picked a book off of […]

It is not we who do Christ the favor of worshiping him; it is Christ who empowers us by strengthening us, and enabling us to fight for the things that are worth fighting for, the things that endure; and that is a promise worth fighting for, worth dying for, and worth living for.

Since I forgot to take any pictures this time around, here is an old picture from a few months ago when I was in town with Michelle…

An Irish Blessing

An Irish Blessing
May the road rise up to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
And the rains fall soft upon your fields,
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
.

While I am in Mpls, I dropped by the Porch on Sunday. […]
