Last Night was Great
Last night in Light Force we had our 3rd worship night. And they just keep getting better. The first two I was really self-conscious about who was and wasn’t there. (Easy to do when only a couple people show up!) This one I was just focused on making it a great night. We had a…

So, ready for coffee?
In the coming weeks I’ve cleared my schedule a lot so that I can concentrate on two things more than I have in the recent past. Spend time with parents of Light Force students. Spend time with Light Force students, with a purpose. So here’s the deal. If you are a student or a parent…

See You at the Pole
Today is "See You at the Pole" all around the country and as I write this thousands of parents, students, and school employees all around the country are lifting up their schools to the Lord. I was over at Romeo Middle School… for about 10 minutes. Unlike other SYATP’s I’ve been to, this one was…

No Light Force tonight
I will readily admit that it does feel a little weird. Tonight, there is no Light Force. Not by accident… but on purpose. Starting next week there will be 3 in-home small groups for teaching and reaching students here in Romeo. That means that the Light Force room… in use for 30+ years… will lie…

Back to School Success
Below is an article I wrote for this month’s Romeo Peach. Normally I wouldn’t pre-release an article like this but since we had printing issues and it related to the start of school… here’s a taste test. (This is article #2, I’ll up article #1 after the release of the Peach. September means one thing…
