What are you doing for THE Cause?

This past week has been a whirlwind of ups and downs. We had another student trust Christ this past Wednesday night at BSM. It’s so great to see how God is continuing to work in the lives of students who are coming. It is such a privilege when you see someone put their faith in Christ and have a hunger [...]

Here is another paper I wrote on discipleship about 5 years ago.  Reading back through these have been good for me. I was a little apprehensive to taking this course.  I thought that it would be a good course to refresh my skills of studying with and though that it would be a fluff class.   I found out however this [...]

This Sunday at Bethel we gave out $4k through a reverse offering!  At the end of the sermon our Deacons handed an envelope with$20 and a list of suggested ideas back out to everyone in the congregation.  It was not limited to adults – kids (all the way down to kindergarten) as well were able to take an envelope.  The [...]

I’m really hoping that out of the conversation tonight that we’ll have a few students who will faithfully take the Gospel to their friends on the schools campus. I know we have some [...]

It’s easy to think “Wow. This guy is an idiot! How could he not see the rocks in the middle of the highway?” I’ll be honest that was my first reaction. Really when you think about it though it’s a like like sin. We take our eyes of off Christ just for a little bit and BAM! Sin’s right there [...]

I haven’t posted in a while about how my progress is coming with living healthy. Part of that is because it has been discouraging lately. I’ve lost some weight over the past 9 week. 6 ponds to be exact. I definitely did not win the ‘Winter Meltdown’ competition at Anytime Fitness. It’s frustrating for me because before the meltdown I [...]
