Spiritual Warfare Increases

Written on February 8, 2010 – 10:35 am | by dave |

I was having a discussion with my wife the other day and she was positively glowing after having a long discussion with some of the ladies at church during meal preparation times. This is something that my sweet wife has missed immensely since we moved to the new church. She did not have a group […]

Seminary starts anew

Written on January 18, 2010 – 10:37 pm | by dave |

Hello friends. I feel horrible about neglecting this blog as I have for the past month but when I already feel like my time is likened to a lemon that has already been squeezed dry but is then being sucked on by someone until it gets all dry and nasty. Okay… maybe that’s not the […]

My First Sermon is Online!

Written on December 10, 2009 – 10:52 am | by dave |

After many hours of laboring over media tools and converters and finally Windows Movie Maker, I have managed to pull the video of my sermon from the camcorder to a file and make it available online. The quality is not that high as I had to put some major work into reducing the size of […]

Official Election As Youth Pastor

Written on December 9, 2009 – 11:06 pm | by dave |

Oh my dear blog, I have ignored you so. It has been hard to post because of the intensity of life. The past few weeks have been spent traveling all over God’s creation, performing the Thanksgiving tour from OKC to San Antonio back to OKC then to McAlester and home.  To say life has been […]

Be Willing to Touch Someone’s Life

Written on November 8, 2009 – 11:30 pm | by dave |

Today the youth and I went out to pay a visit to a youth who has not been to church in a little while as part of a youth-wide outreach night. The person I was assigned to was a young man out in a remote area of Midwest City (east of OKC) but lived near […]

Real Discipleship

Written on November 4, 2009 – 10:54 pm | by dave |

It is amazing to me how I can be so spiritually filled when I have time to minister to and with others, there is no drug that gives you a high like this! For the first time, I got to hang out with the youth at NWBC on a Wednesday night and MAN it is […]

Another Youth Night

Written on November 2, 2009 – 3:40 pm | by dave |

I gotta admit, this time I spent with the youth at NWBC was not as good as it was last time. It started with a footbal game that very few of the boys wanted to do then got worse when one of the boys dislocated his shoulder (he talked like this happened often…uh…eh?). Later, I […]

The Most Valuable Reason to Loose Sleep

Written on November 1, 2009 – 12:32 am | by dave |

Here it is on November 1st and I am somewhat afraid to sleep because I don’t want to wake up and find that my 4 year old has graduated high school overnight, which is how fast this year seems to have gone by. However, last night I stayed up until almost 3:15 AM, a simple […]

In Process…

Written on October 31, 2009 – 1:48 am | by dave |

Went to the interview on Thursday and found a very welcoming church on the very edge of the OKC metro. I have to admit that Tiff got a very different impression of the place than I did. I really see a church that is starting to get focused on growth and they are making a […]

Chapel Day

Written on October 28, 2009 – 11:38 am | by dave |

I had a whole lot of fun today again at Southwest Christian Academy for chapel. I was very concerned that the message would be awkward because I didn’t finish my material until about 11:30 last night, being a daddy took precedence since my daughter is struggling with grief at the moment. Amazingly, I was able […]
