it’s all relative

I just finished watching Deal or No Deal, and the contestants frustrate the mess out of me. Most of them allow their greed to cloud their logic and better judgment. Tonight’s episode was no different.
Donald Trump made a guest appearance as the banker, and the contestant was a lady from New York who [...]

sunday night rewind

There was a lot of anticipation going into our service this morning. We were launching a new series titled “THE END”, had a great music set, and baptized 16 people. (Please check out Angie’s post here.)
Byron introduced the series by contrasting the life of a baby (who happened to be my son Jackson) and a [...]

it’s friday, i’m in love…

with Colorado Fondue Company. Though they do have traditional fondue, their main dishes are cooked on a hot stone at your table. Great atmosphere and incredible food. Orlando is their only location, so if you don’t live here, be sure to check it out next time your in town. Any restaurant [...]

if you’re reading this blog…

then you’re rich! You might not realize it, but if you’re able to read this blog, this means you either own a computer or have easy access to a computer, which means you’re rich – extremely rich when measured against the entire world.

the end is coming

I can’t tell you how pumped I am about our upcoming series THE END. It’s been an incredible process putting together some of the creative elements and developing the content. Byron has a great post on the process here.
When you dig into some of the subjects we’ll be discussing, you gain an appreciation [...]

if only I had…

I can’t count the number of times I’ve begun a sentence with the words, “If only I had…” We always think that our problems can be solved by the one thing that is not in our possession.

If only I had more money, it would relieve the financial pressure.
If only I had more time, [...]

sunday night rewind

Here are just a few random thoughts from my Sunday evening. Hope you had a great weekend!

Had the opportunity to speak on baptism this morning at C3.
Looking forward to seeing the baptisms next week and launching our new series “THE END.
There’s something very satisfying about a Wendy’s Double after I preach.
I don’t think I’ll [...]

it’s friday, i’m in love…

with Kylie Reese. No reason to be alarmed – this is the newest addition to our family. My brother-in-law and his wife just had their first baby and we couldn’t be more excited for them. She entered the world about 30 minutes ago in Los Angeles. It was also 30 minutes [...]

don’t walk by

We’re all familiar with the story of the Good Samaritan. And though there are many lessons to be learned from this parable, I believe it holds a very simple message for those that follow Christ.
If you’re like me, you can become overwhelmed by all the needs and demands for ministry. There are marriages in trouble, [...]

make decisions in a blink

Well, maybe not literally. In the course of the last 12 months, the leadership at C3 Church has had to make a number of critical decisions in a short amount of time. Typically, you’d think the more time you have and information you can collect would lead to better decision-making, but that’s not always true. [...]
