  • being a man

    Over the holidays, I picked up my The Dangerous Book for Boys book and was flipping through it. If you know me well, I am often thinking about how to be like my dad and how to raise my boys to be like my dad. Or simply, how to be a man. I read again…

  • jj and snowman

    While visiting the family in North Carolina, we were surprised with a White Christmas! It was the first white christmas in Charlotte, NC since 1947. Wow! (at least thats what they told me) We all built a snowman today. So much fun. Great memories!

  • merry christmas!

    I know it is a little bit late, but Merry Christmas to everyone from Noah and the rest of the Greene family. I have not been on the computer in days. We have been spending some much needed quality time with our families. We love you church and look forward to seeing you all soon.

  • new song & video “parent me”

    Reach Records and Lecrae and the 116 clique and the Unashamed Tour have been impacting the church and youth of the world with solid Bible music for quite some time now. Their impact and influence continues to grow and spread. I am so proud to help others hear of them. Their music is one of…

  • whole sermon only scripture

    In Seminary, I often dreamed of craftiing a sermon that was only full of Bible. Well, this man here has already done it! It is outstanding. I encourage you to take 30 minutes some time to watch this, take it in, soak it up, and be blessed by how Good God is and also be…

  • emotions stirred

    Yesterday (I wrote this Friday and just got to post it.) was a good long day for me in ministry. The day began with a routine weekly Bible study on the Biblical subject of Christmas (the birth of Jesus Christ.) It was encouraging to see so many ladies digging through God’s Word to grasp all…

  • peace

    Reading the Christmas passages from the Bible along with Advent devotionals, I have been reminded of what peace truly is. Peace is not the absence of troubles and problems and stress and drama. Instead, peace is the presence of God. My observation of the world and the people in it only confirms this belief. Nothing…

  • psalm 16… refreshing

    Psalm 16 ends with this “you make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.” Everyone wants that type of satisfaction and happiness, but not everyone knows where you find it.  Notice where David finds it. The first two verses of…

  • try to get this christmas book

    A few years ago, I got this book and absolutely loved it. I now get back into it every year at Christmas time. It is an advent devotional book. Nancy Guthrie has taken sermon excerpts from many of the greats and compiled it into one wonderful small volume. Some of the people she has taken…

  • Agnew on problem with ‘Radical’

    I went to college with Travis Agnew. I loved him then, and I love him now. (even though we do not talk much) Click here to read his short but very very good article on his problem with David Platt’s new book Radical. (It is a good problem.) Many of us need to hear what…
