From Kevin Funk… So there I am sitting at home ready to go to our Easter service anticipating the Good News and all of the great fellowship about to ensue. “God, you are good”, I thought to myself. This Easter felt like any other. I prayed for Pastor Dave as I was tying my tie […]
Read more "The Mourning of Easter"From Rohn Peterson… Recently in my Bible reading I ran across Titus 2:11-12 which states, “For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age,” There are two words in the above passage […]
Read more "The Power of a Hyphen"As a kid, I grew up thinking there is absolutely nothing my Dad can’t do. He must be the strongest person on the planet. He can dig giant holes with a shovel, carry lumber, and build things around the property we grew up on. Whenever we wrestled, I knew I wouldn’t win. There was nothing […]

Read more "Isaiah 55 Mission Trip – March 2014"I used to be more flexible. I really did…I promise.

Read more "Multiply – A Call to Pray Together"From Craig Swanson… It is amazing how our culture and media shapes our thinking in so many ways. Movies, TV shows, commercials, talk shows – a constant barrage attacking the heart and soul of real masculinity. Sadly, we’ve bought most of the lies and it is reflected in the decline of the family today. In the movies […]
Read more "Real Men – Part 1"From Dan McClain… I got it! I got it! I’m so thankful that God has blessed me with three wonderfully unique children. They each have their own personalities. One of them in particular has a very strong desire to do things on his own. To protect his identity I will call him Puppy. Whether he is […]
