Taproot: Developing God-Centered Men

Taproot is the upcoming men's development group at Harmony Church. We will be going through a couple of awesome writings: the Westminster Shorter Catechism (WSC) and Jonathan Edwards' 70 Resolutions. The WSC, of course, is a question and answer format of Reformed …

One Day, I'll Dance On My Grave

Great God, I own thy sentence just,

And nature must decay;

I yield my body to the dust,

To dwell with fellow clay.

Yet faith may triumph o'er the grave,

And trample on the tombs

My Jesus, my Redeemer, lives;

My God, my Savior, comes.

The mighty Conqueror shall appear

We Will Pray for You, Mr. President

On This Moment in History

Let's get something straight. Humanity has not "evolved" morally. We have simply shifted our prejudice. Yes, I'm thankful that an African-American has been elected and I think Obama has great potential. But at the end of the day, America is no more closer to …

After Preaching for One Year...Part Two

Here's the first part in this series (link).

I had coaching this past Monday, and we talked about preaching, so I thought I'd write down, in list form, what I've learned after preaching regularly for a year in a full church setting. Now, grant you, I've been teaching …

After Preaching for One Year...Part One

I'm about to head to Raleigh, NC for my monthly coaching meeting, and figured that I would blog real quick before I head out. We're talking about preaching, so I thought I'd write down, in list form, what I've learned after preaching regularly for a year in a full …

As You Preach

Here's some questions I got from my coach this week concerning preaching. Figured I'd pass it to the Kingdom.

1) Did I grow in my own walk with God through my preaching and preparation? Was I personally impacted by what I preached? Am I therefore a more godly man …

Christmas Eve Musings

• So stoked that we're giving our people this Sunday a break from the pressure of having "to go to church". Family time is much more important than an hour meeting.


• We had a great Echo Group this past Sunday night. We talked about Gospel-centered marriages...one of my …

Harmony Church: White People (and One Guatemalan)

Right now, Harmony Church is predominately Caucasian. I say "predominately" to mean everyone but Pablo, our worship leader. Here's some quick stats I came across today, via PeopleGroups.info:

As of 2000, there are:

• 2820 people from Mexico in our area.


• 220 people from …

The Gospel, the 170,000 and Harmony Church

Yesterday, I unveiled the vision that Harmony Church is going to accomplish. In short, the vision is to be reaching 170,000 people with the Gospel by 2020. That's the number of "unclaimed" people there will be in the year 2020, according to current rates, as surveyed by …

Turkey-Week Thoughts

Here's some thoughts:

• Haven't blogged in a while. It was down, due to my host changing servers over. Kind of scary for a moment, thought I lost all of my previous data (posts, etc.)


• This past Sunday was awesome! We had a great gathering (though I was preaching with a …
