I try to read through the Bible every year. It’s just something I do to keep myself continually in God’s Word and to develop my relationship with God. I’m amazed at how God will use specific moments in the most unlikely parts of the Bible to speak to me. Lately, […]
This past weekend I talked about the GiveBack Offering that we will be receiving at our Believe Christmas Experiences. I think sometimes people are confused when it comes to the difference between the tithe and an offering. An offering is ABOVE and BEYOND our tithe. I took some time to […]
This past weekend we gave our church $20K with instructions to not spend it on themselves, but to go bless someone else this season. We are calling it the GiveBack Project. We wanted to see how radical generosity would tear down walls in people’s lives and show them that God […]
