This evening we picked up sub sandwiches and headed to the park with some friends. It was fun to just hang out with the Ellis’, Yandells’, and Summers’.
After dinner we played baseball with the kids.  My boys can hit, but i realized i need to work on their catching.  It was good to toss the […]

Good Nap

Friday, April 28th, 2006

The last few weeks have been very draining.  Easter is always busy for a pastor, but this season has been wheels-off.  God has been blessing PVC so incredibly, and Satan has stepped up his attacks accordingly.  Today, i realized i’m just plain tired and worn out.
Don’t get me wrong, i love what God has called […]

He’s A Really Good Tipper

Friday, April 28th, 2006

Last Sunday a gal came up to me after second service.  I know her from a local restaurant i frequent (i’m very loyal).  She said when i came on stage to teach, she was surprised to see me.  I had never told her that i’m the pastor of PVC.
Her friend, who had brought her to […]

Sunday’s Coming

Thursday, April 27th, 2006

I’ve received a ton of questions about the video we used Easter weekend called “Sunday’s Coming”.  It used the audio from E.V. Hill’s famous sermon, with incredible graphic support.  The video is awesome, and rocked the service!
Many have asked where to get the video.  You can purchase and download it online at www.worshiphousemedia.com, here’s a […]

Heelies are cool

Tuesday, April 25th, 2006

My boys have heelies, they’re cool.  In case you don’t know, “heelies” are the shoes with roller skates built in. If you see the kids in the mall cruising around, they’re wearing heelies.
Anyways, it sure seems to make walking around more fun for them.  When i walk from point A to point B, it’s boring.  […]

Above and Beyond

Tuesday, April 25th, 2006

I’m continually amazed at people who go above and beyond the call at Palm Valley each weekend.  These are people who understand, who “get” the mission and vision we’re called to.  They give of their time, talents, and treasure to build the Kingdom.  They amaze me, and i love them for it…
Dick and Linda Davis […]

Sunday Night Thoughts

Sunday, April 23rd, 2006

Today was awesome!  As i taught about forgiving people who have hurt us, I really sensed God was working in people’s hearts.
At the end of the message, as i asked people to raise a clenched fist as i prayed for them, i saw so much healing take place in the room as people released their […]

Sunday Morning

Sunday, April 23rd, 2006

I love weekends at Palm Valley.  I woke up excited this morning because I know God is going to be there!  I’m not being arrogant, i’m just claiming the promise of Scripture…
Matthew 18:20 (NIV) — “For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them.”
I love knowing that today people […]
