GOD is GREAT!

God is doing some totally awesome things in the Upstate of South Carolina! Here is just a couple things:

1. God has blessed me with the opportunity to see 5 teenagers come to know Christ in the past two weeks!

2. The youth ministers throughout the area and their churches have been given the opportunity to minister to area-wide high school baseball teams, their coaches, and their families.

3. A new vision for local missions has been cast from a local ministry leader. We're tired of getting missions in the wrong order. Let's do missions at home F-I-R-S-T...

4. WinterJam 09 - Need I say - "AWESOME"

There is a small piece of whats going through my head.

How has God been blessing you, your lives, your families/friends, ministry, etc????

A Narrow Gate

"Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to distruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it." - Matthew 7:13,14 (NASB)

A New Era

My wife, Brittani, and I are expecting a little bundle of joy in September! Sept 20th to be exact! Yesterday, I was able to hear our baby's heartbeat for the very first time! With a heartbeat of 172 bpm, this moment will not be something I soon forget. I anxiously look foward to using this blog as a personnal therapeudic tool. I'm not typically a person who patiently sits around and types/writes endless amounts of informtion, but I have found writing out my thoughts to be somewhat "healing." Therefore, stay tuned to hear more about my childhood and why I cannot wait to be a DAD! **I never thought i'd be able to say that!**
