STOCK ICONS
I am always looking for new icons for programming and webstuff. Check out iconbuffet. Say hello to me and I will send you some deliveries.
A little bit of tech fun for you web heads and design guys
I now pronounce you Family & Church!
Church, the Koinonia, the body, a family all mean the same to me. In case you didn’t know the church I call home doesn’t have a membership per se. I mean we want everyone to feel at home and fellowship and invest their lives into our body but we don’t have a formal membership regiment. And as some of you know there are churches where membership is everything, very similar to wedding vows. As I write this my only disclaimer is that I am not here speaking to a regular, everyday churchgoer, I am specifically speaking to those who have accepted the call (mantle) of leadership.

There is no such thing as “FREE” Porn
Please check out the article on the Phoenix Preacher. BrianD has struck a chord in relation to a silent and stealthy epidemic which plagues our society today. Pornography is an epidemic of massive proportions which if allowed to go unchecked can and will ruin the lives of those involved with it and anyone around them. This post has inspired me to pray about having an accountability group within my church, I really like the X3 watch program and think it would be a great tool to use. Ultimately the only way that we can overcome this addiction is through honesty, prayer, and a realization that as Paul would say “Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind”, and also “Set your mind on things above”. If we through the help and guidance of the Holy Spirit can do this I think we will find ourselves living no longer under the condemnation and slavery that is brought about buy this “secret” sin.
“He’s got the whole blogosphere in His hands”
Please continue to pray for Bryon, he has been on my heart. Also pray for the Hampton Roads area as we head into the Franklin Graham festival in about a week or so. I got my Children’s Counselor badge the other day, I am looking forward to what God wants to do. Also as I have been out and about on the Net there are alot of hurting people out there, and equally alot of misguided ones. Please pray for them when you pray.
God works in mysterious ways
Well I started looking out at the Blog world today and stirred up a little discussion over on the SMP.
**WARNING: The following is not for the softhearted (just the bitter it seems)**
Out of the ashes of the Phoenix Preacher rose this thread.
Which led me to the discussion with this blogger. As you read the comments made please pray that this will be an open door for God to continue to speak to someone who He has been speaking to for a long time. Also please as are so many continue to be praying for Bryon Mondok and his family
And now for something completely different
The SMP has had some stimulating discussion on the Holy Spirit and His role in our lives. I think that coupled with the awesome article on Mark Driscoll’s blog by John Piper, has been such a blessing for me. As I have been following the discussion and reading the article I was thinking this is exactly the message I want to send to those I disciple and serve alongside. Everything we do should be done heartily as unto the Lord, and that nothing is worth doing unless we are going to do it by His Spirit.
Beast of burden or Show pony
Where do I begin???
Looking through my posts and wrestiling with what the Lord has been showing me has brought me to a new place in ministry. I think that this transition and growth have been good. It has left me with quite a few questions and slowly but surely through prayer and the counsel of others the answers are coming. Read the rest of this entry »
