New Worship Style at True North!!!
Hey guys!!
We’re thinking of adopting a new worship style at True North that looks something like this.
Let us know what you think ok?
I like netflix. I'm a fan. I quit using their DVD service this fall and lately I've been streaming the content instead. I was a bit concerned about lack of access to new releases (especially since Blockbuster seems to have vanished entirely from the face of Long Island) but the truth is, I've been trying to read more lately anyhow and there's a LOT of content available for streaming. So I'm cruising through the menu a few weeks ago when I saw a Bruce Lee movie I had never seen. It's called Game of Death. Fans of martial arts movies are ...
** Heads up: there is absolutely zero spiritual content in the following entry. Unless discussing James Bond somehow brings you closer to God. Which is decidedly possible. I got a couple of gift cards for Christmas this year, which I used to complete my collection of James Bond films. I now own all of the 22 movies in the series, plus the extra non-canonical 'Never Say Never Again,' which is basically a remake of Thunderball. There are many of the films I haven't seen yet and I'm having a great time slowly working my way through the set. I intend to stretch this out ...
Even if you're not an NBA fan, you've probably heard the name 'Jeremy Lin.' And you've probably suffered through many of the bad puns that his name has given birth to. But you may not know the back story. Simply by virtue of the fact that he's one of the few Chinese players in the NBA, Lin has a huge following in the Asian community. Earlier this year, he was thrust into the limelight after leading the Knicks on a 7 game winning streak. Lin had been cut by the Houston Rockets and the Golden State Warriors. He was sent down to ...
This past Sunday at True North, we wrapped up a message series called "How to Be Rich." If you missed it, you can check out the audio here, at our message archive. It was a pretty heavy three weeks and I got a ton of positive feedback on it, which really encouraged me because talking about money always sets me off balance. We talked at length about how blessed we are and how no matter what, we're all convinced that we're broke and that "rich" is a title for someone else. The truth is, if you live indoors, you have indoor plumbing, ...

My wife and I had a pretty rough Monday. All in all it had been a good weekend.
I was in Miami. A friend of mine who is also a pastor and church planter there was in Taiwan with his wife adopting their second child. He called a few weeks ago and asked if I might be able to come down and preach for him. I happened to have the week off this past Sunday as Tom was scheduled to open the ‘Without Ceasing’ series at True North.
I had a great time with the people at The Pursuit Christian Church, Miami, ate some great Cuban food and had an overall enjoyable weekend. Right up until I went to leave for the airport Monday morning. I had parked my rental car in the parking garage attached to the hotel, so I felt like it would be pretty safe. Sadly, this was not the case. I found the car with it’s passenger window smashed and my GPS unit and iPod gone. This, by the way, was the second iPod I’ve had stolen from me in a month!! Read More…
So last week some of our team took a trip to the Drive Conference at North Point Community Church, in Alpharetta, Ga.
It was amazing. These guys have seriously been working on their kung-fu.
And one of the amazing skills they have mastered is the art of the self-depracating parody. Do you know a young, growing church who’s taking themselves too seriously? Show ‘em this!!
Enjoy. And leave me some feedback in the comments section. Upper right corner of the post, peeps.
I know some of you True North-ers are going to be LOVING this.

Been doing some thinking about the current season of my life, and it sometimes just blows my mind how fast time is passing.
Maybe you’ve had some thoughts lately that go like this: “Man, I can’t believe ____________ !” As in, “I can’t believe True North is 4 1/2 years old already!!” Or “I can’t believe summer’s almost here!” Lately, I’ve been having a LOT of those. I can’t believe how old my kids are getting. I can’t believe how fast things are moving with the church. I can’t believe how much amazing stuff I’ve been able to see and do and be a part of in the last few years.
