If you ever wanted to worship at the “South Lawn,” next Sunday is the closest opportunity you may ever get! See below for “next Sunday’s worship plans.” But first, a recap from last Sunday. That morning, as I watched the rain come down steadily, I wondered if anyone would come to the service. So, it…

           Gather with us on Sunday, May 17- 11:00 a.m.! Good things come when believers knit together. Doesn’t the word, “knit” paint a picture? Individual strands being joined together, bound, tied, and interlocked so that a useful product is made. Our enemy, Satan seeks to separate and unravel believers from one…

Quickly now, what was Elijah’s favorite line of clothing? Yes, a hairy garment (animal skin), and an old leather belt.

I went bowling with Batman the other day (see video below).  Turns out he’s a pretty good little bowler.  I’m guessing it’s the crazy cape that makes the difference.  It does seem strange that a virus gave me extra time to be with him.  To be bowling in the middle of a virus pandemic just…

Sometimes the most difficult place to live out our Christianity is in our own homes.  I’m smiling as I write this because so many families are in the thick of being cooped up together at home.  With children at home the noise volume goes up, the amount of food to be prepped goes up, dishes…
