So earlier I was driving back from dropping some pictures off to get printed at target and picking up some books I didnt realize I needed for my STINT. Eh, whats a couple more books anyway. Afterall they could prove interesting and insightful. For the last couple days, however, I havent really been feeling all…
Read MoreHappy Birthday Substance!!
A year ago we had our first service at the University of Minnesota St. Paul campus continuing education center. What started with a launch team of about twenty a year later was celebrating a year of being moved through by God with 217 people. It was awesome!! I am very glad I was able…
Read MoreWhat the Christian world doesn’t want to Hear
That your God, the Lord of Lords and King of Kings, the Rock upon which you lean upon is so appropriately called Jealous. With your words stands a statement of awe while your actions and heart attempt to belittle the grandest of eternity. Outside of whom there is nothing. Heartbroken He watches us in our…
