Youth Sunday – June 12, 2012

By on Sunday, June 26th, 2011 | No Comments

The link below contains the worship audio from Patterson Avenue Baptist Church. The YOUTH designed and planned the entire service. It’s brief (only about 30 minutes total). They did a GREAT job, BTW. Really proud of them. The music in the prelude, postlude, and offertory section of the services were composed by my son, Michael. […]

Giving Your Best Is Not Enough

By on Tuesday, June 21st, 2011 | No Comments

Read Luke 10:38-42 (NIV) There was a time when almost every child in America had at least three sets of clothing. They had school clothes, play clothes, and church clothes. A child’s church clothing was commonly referred to as their “Sunday best.” Wearing one’s “Sunday best” communicated more than simply a style of worship fashion—it […]

THE END OF THE WORLD

Read Mark 13:1-10 Have you ever had a song that has been stuck in your head and you just can’t get it out of there? Sometimes it’s a commercial jingle. “A sprinkle a day helps keeps the order away!” Oh, I hated that one. Maybe it’s a hymn. “I come to the garden, alone, while […]

Have you ever felt nostalgic for the good old days?  Have you ever experienced a longing and yearning for the way things use to be? I remember once visiting in a home of a family with a young child.  The parents of this young boy had just converted his room from being that of a […]

Running and Running – May 15, 2011, Audio from Patterson Avenue Baptist Church, Richmond, Virginia

By on Monday, May 16th, 2011 | No Comments

We spend most of our day “Running and Running and Running” with no real destination in mind.  (Or, if we are lucky, like the fellow in my picture, we are skating) – but no matter HOW we are moving, we usually don’t know where we are going.  If we did, it probably wouldn’t help much, […]

Running and Running and Running

As a child one of my favorite places to visit was the pet store.  In fact, I still like visiting the pet store.  I liked seeing the lineup of puppies and wish I could adopt them all.  I like looking at all the cats hoping that I never adopting any of them.  I like looking […]

Low Sunday Reboot

By on Monday, May 2nd, 2011 | No Comments

Last Sunday’s sermon was titled “Reboot.”  When I was composing that sermon, the computer uploaded an update, powered-down, and REBOOTED.  In essense, it DIED and was RESURRECTED.  That’s what Jesus accomplished for us at the cross and empty tomb.  On Easter, REBOOT seems redundant.  There is so much energy and activity (so many chocolate bunnies) […]
