Update from Vermont and North Carolina

I am home from a full and exciting week of ministry in Vermont and North Carolina. I just arrived home this afternoon after a safe flight back from Raleigh/Durham, NC.

I started the trip on Wednesday of last week flying to Burlington, Vermont for the Websterville Baptist Christian High School Retreat where I was speaking on Thursday and Friday. The kids were awesome. And the fall colors were great! It was a privilege to be there. A lot of the kids and adults responded to the work of the Holy Spirit and it was a blast to watch.

Then on Friday afternoon I flew down to Durham, NC where my Aunt lives. I stayed with her Friday and enjoyed the time there. On Saturday I drove on over to Creston, NC where I was preaching Sunday morning at the Riverview Baptist Church. Sunday night I did a full concert there and then Monday headed back to Durham. I spent Monday evening at my Aunt's home and then flew back to TN today.

I am looking forward to a Men's Retreat this weekend in Northern Michigan with my friends from Clarksville Bible Church. Hopefully we'll get some paint ballin' in like we did last year.

It has been so exciting to see the opportunities God is bringing along to share my passion for the church. I am so blessed. What is most interesting is how the schedule is filling up with revival meetings and conferences. The Spring schedule for 2010 is packed and I hardly have any concerts. So it is exciting to see how God continues to move the ministry more into a speaking/preaching role. What a privilege to serve God in this way.

Alright, have a great day!

Follow up from Altoona PA

I had a great weekend of ministry last weekend in Altoona, PA. I had the privilege of speaking in three services in the morning at First Church. My friend Brad Windlan is one of the associate pastors there. I was greatly encouraged by the response after each of the services. When I get a copy of the message from that morning I will post a link to it.

I am off this weekend and am getting caught up on some stuff around the house. Tonight I am looking forward to spending the evening with friends in Spring Hill, TN.

Wednesday I will be flying up to Vermont for the Websterville Baptist Christian School Retreat Thursday and Friday. Then Friday afternoon I'll fly to Raleigh, North Carolina for services in Creston Saturday and Sunday. I'm planning to spend a day with family in Raleigh on Monday and then fly back to Tennessee Tuesday. I'll catch my breath for a day or two and then head on up to Michigan for a mens retreat there.

So all in all, this is a very busy time for me. October is going to be exciting as well. And then in November I am back in Montreal for the exciting Missions Globales conference. What a privilege.

I'll keep you posted from the road. Have a great day!

HOME!!!!!!!

I am finally home after being on the road since June 24. I arrived home last night about 7:00 PM. It feels so good to be back. There is a ton of stuff around the house that will need to be addressed in the coming days but I am just grateful to be home.

I have the best friends here in Tennessee who have taken care of my place while I have been gone. My neighbor has been looking after the inside of my home and took the time to dust the house and clean the bathrooms on Monday before I got back. She had the windows open to air out the house and had even put some fresh water in the fridge for me. That is so kind. My other neighbor mowed my yard whenever it needed it. I owe both of these folks a lot of favors!

I'm looking forward to getting together with some guys from my Sunday School class tonight. When I am in town, we meet on Wednesday nights for Bible study and accountability. It is something I look forward to.

So I am fired up to be home. I am off this weekend and will be able to be in my home church for a change. Yeah!

Alright, have a great day!
