This summer has been full of surprises and interesting dynamics. We have been traveling the world not just entertaining people but actually trying to be a light in a dark world. The trials were plentiful again this year. Losing loved ones, strained relationships, and unforeseen circumstances. I just want to ask our family to continue to pray with us.

The summer is not over and even if the "buzz" dies down the ministry won't stop. We still need prayer and more support than ever.

As an encouragement just want to plead with our family, Don't Waste Your:

Time - Knowing tons of...

Every generation has a group of revolutionaries.

People rise to stand and fight for what they believe in. Joshua and Caleb, Joseph, David, Daniel and his crew of Hebrew boys.
Today where are the young radicals who are fighting to see Christ infiltrate every area of life.

Are we truly saved?

Is the gospel fleshed out in our finances, friendships, education, workplace, and family?
Have our views on race, culture, and class been crucified on the cross and born again with a new perspective?
Have our hang ups with people from different backgrounds changed since becoming a Christian?

Anyhow

I recently met with my church community and we walked through the meaning and significance of this time of year. We came to a place where we understand that this a time to remember and reflect. A time of symbolism and...

I find it very encouraging that we didn't take the route of trying to minimize and cover up the message of the Gospel, but instead made it very blunt and plain and still God did more than we could have imagined in the first week.

*NOTE* We have one key strategy at Reach. Exalt Jesus, Preach the Word, Christ Alone, never try to empty the cross of it's power, and live out daily what you proclaim to others. I guess it's really no different than Paul's strategy. So I can tell everyone it wasn't us trying to...

THE HEART OF A REBEL


I'm doing my best to seize this moment when I don't have much to do. Well that's not the truth I have plenty to do but I don't feel so overwhelmed that I can't write.

I am hurting for the world.
Not some generic "world" that people cant see or touch. But for the world around me. For my family, my community, for nations.

I'm am realizing more and more that it is insanity to believe that a CD will be the big relevant tool to open the eyes of the world to Truth or more specifically Jesus.

BUT...
I do think the music can help many and I pray the music will push you...
