Theft and Recovery

theft blog

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…

“Sunday’s Coming” Relevant Church Spoof!!

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.
