Suicide. Just typing the word sends chills up my spine. On a few occasions, I have ministered to families who had a family member take their own life and I have seen up close the enormous pain and despair that comes. A few years ago, the son of well known pastor Rick Warren took hisContinue reading “The suicide question”

Renewing the Blog & the Power of Social Media
It’s great to be back writing a blog post again for the first time in almost a year and a half. Sorry that I let life and ministry crowd out this ministry. I have updated the photos and a couple of the sections on this blog. Hopefully, I can do a better job with updatesContinue reading “Renewing the Blog & the Power of Social Media”
Message from 2018 Alabama Baptist State Evangelism Conference
Praying especially that the Lord might use this message in the lives of pastors and those who lead…
The Day of a Godly Person’s Death
Our church family at Lakeside has been touched profoundly by death this week. First of all, a beloved 33 year-old member of our church died after six months in the heart transplant unit at UAB hospital. On Wednesday, a wonderful 37 year old teacher at one of our local schools passed away suddenly and unexpectedly.Continue reading “The Day of a Godly Person’s Death”
When You are in a Busy Season
No blog post in two months. Sad. To be very honest, July and August were a blur for me. Those two months may have been the busiest two months I have had in life and ministry. Even taking a vacation with the family didn’t slow things down! As I looked at my calendar today andContinue reading “When You are in a Busy Season”
Religious liberty & July 4th
This year July 4th falls on a Monday, so many people will be taking long weekends and enjoying fun, food, and family.

The United States has long been known as “the land of theContinue reading “Religious liberty & July 4th”
The Inerrancy & Authority of the Bible
It seems like the issues just keep coming. In 2015 the issue was marriage; now in 2016 the issue is bathrooms. I shutter to even think of what the 2017 issue could be. There is pressure to compromise on every side. Increasingly, leaders in many areas of our culture insist that all must get onContinue reading “The Inerrancy & Authority of the Bible”
Good reasons to be Southern Baptist
Particularly in the last decade, new models of “doing church” and churches working together (networks rather than denominations) have arisen. This is not necessarily a bad thing. Many of these churches and networks are preaching the gospel of Christ, seeing people come to faith, and taking the gospel to the world. Much has been writtenContinue reading “Good reasons to be Southern Baptist”
Leading the people of God
“For this reason I left you in Crete, that you should set in order the things that are lacking, and appoint elders in every city as I commanded you—” (Titus 1:5, NKJV) Titus was a Gentile who had come to faith in Christ – possibly even led to Christ by the Apostle Paul himself. ForContinue reading “Leading the people of God”
Don’t worry. Be Faithful.
““This is why I tell you: Don’t worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Isn’t life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the sky: They don’t sow or reap or gather into barns,Continue reading “Don’t worry. Be Faithful.”
