in awe of love

The song ‘Hallelujah’ by Tenth Avenue North has been running through my mind a lot lately.  It’s such a great song and I absolutely love it. At first I am afraid but not because of fear But the Holy of Holies is drawing me near Your voice like thunder shakes the ground I’m on So hide my face in the [...]

today i cried…

And I am a man for it.

This afternoon I have been praying for our middle school ministry that is happening tonight.  I came down in the youth room and turned on the stage lighting and sat on a stool while singing/ praying to God for our students.  I started strumming and words started flowing…next thing I knew a song was born.  The words are below; abba [...]

the first "official" night of CHAOS

Last night was our first “official” night of CHAOS.  Last week our students voted on the name for our high school ministry and CHAOS won.  So last night, although it was technically our 4th week to meet, was really the first night of CHAOS.  We had a great time together though.  We had 3 new students stop by and check [...]
