There are a lot of moments when Jesus deliberately broke a custom or a traditional teaching just to crack the rock-hard hearts of the religious people. Most of His healing was on the Sabbath, which was a deliberate effort to snap people out of their religion and into real life. I was really good at […]
Nehemiah Viewing the Ruins
I’m reading through Nehemiah with a group of guys from OneLife West and the thing that hit me yesterday was that Daniel was taken away and the city was destroyed around 605 BC. Nehemiah was going back and viewing the destruction around 450 B.C. That would be like me going and touring the battle of […]

King David on letting God be God
2 Samuel 15:24-26 And Abiathar came up, and behold, Zadok came also with all the Levites, bearing the ark of the covenant of God. And they set down the ark of God until the people had all passed out of the city. 25 Then the king said to Zadok, “Carry the ark of God back […]

Brian Houston – WCAGLS 2015
There was so much good in this talk. You can see some of it in my notes.
Sheila Heen – WCAGLS 2015
Here are my notes from Sheila Heen’s talk at the Willow Creek Global Leadership Summit. She was really good. The even better part of this whole talk was that I was getting my semi-annual review at work right as I was putting the notes together! At the end she said some things about how we […]
Getting Involved
These are my notes from one of our community prayer meetings this week. It talks about the things that prevent us from getting involved with others in their situations and struggles. The more we think about sharing life in common, in sharing life together as a community, these things come up and you really are […]
