Today we shot some video for this weekend’s services. We’re unveiling the campus & building plans, so it’s going to be very cool! Palm Valleyer’s, you don’t want to miss this historical weekend. I believe we’ll look back at this weekend for years to come and remember how incredible God is! It will be one […]
As we kicked off the “Dangerous Church” series, we looked at Acts 4:13, and realized that ordinary people like Peter and John are able to do extraordinary things when they spend time with Jesus.
I challenged our body to spend time each day in prayer and reading the Bible. Palm Valley Church is reading Scripture together […]
Last week at the Launch Conference I met some great church planters. I love planters because they are on the cutting edge of faith. I believe there’s no riskier endeavor (from experience) that starting a church from scratch. I love hanging out with these guys for 2 reasons…
I’m committed to helping them. We’ve learned a […]
I’m flat out tired this evening. Last week was incredibly busy, and it really hit me this afternoon. Here’s some thoughts I feel this evening…

Art Day, our Pastor of Development & Construction, sent me pictures he took today from our land. It seems like an impossible dream, but dirt is actually being turned on Verrado Road & Roosevelt, our building site!
SunBelt Development, the company developing the shopping centers around us, has received permits and is beginning to do all […]
As I’ve talked about, church planters are heroes to me. Having planted a church and pastored it for 6 years, I get all that’s involved. It’s my desire that as Palm Valley continues to grow and develop, we will develop a coaching network for church planters; to help them along the way.
Early this week I […]
A couple of excellent books I’m reading through right now, and digging…
Integrity by Henry Cloud… very challenging, to consider that integrity is more than just “not doing the wrong things in life”, it’s all about spending our life doing the best things. Every person should read this book, and apply it!
Made To Stick by Chip […]
