Be It Resolved… Welcome to 2018
New Years Day has just past. I usually don’t make resolutions, mostly because I can’t or won’t keep them. As a result of our small group working through the series “Guardrails” by Andy Stanley from North Point Church, I have decided I need to create a set of guardrails as my New Year’s resolution? GuardrailContinue reading “Be It Resolved… Welcome to 2018”
What Do You Want For Christmas?
by Julie Leis For Noah, Caitlin and Gabriel My children ask each year the same question. After thinking about it, I decided I’d give them my real answer: What do I want for Christmas? I want you.

Be A Caleb! This was said to me by a mentor many years ago. Why Caleb and not Joshua? I think it was because Caleb quietly did what was right and didn’t seek any fanfare. Not much is written about Caleb. We know he went in to the promised land to spy it out withContinue reading “Be a Caleb”
Too Many Chorus Repeats
Wrong. You have the wrong attitude. It’s not about you. It’s about God and your worship of Him. And clearly He deserves all our praises. The angels never get tired or bored of worshiping or praising God, never sick of the words, never! We sing hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah and we don’t like it and some people even stopContinue reading “Too Many Chorus Repeats”
Without Faith, Nothing Fun Happens
If you take faith out of the Bible, nothing FUN happens!! Hebrews 11 is often called the “Faith Hall of Fame.” Theses are stories of remarkable men and women whose stories stand out to encourage and challenge our faith.
