    Memorial Day Video ahead of me. Today we wrap our 6-week series in the middle of Acts by looking at Barnabas. Barnabas is in fact his nickname. Now, sometimes we can be cruel with our nicknames.

    Jude Jude The author of the biblical book of Jude was probably the brother of James (not one of Jesus' twelve disciples). Alternatively, it could be that Jude was just an assumed name. The Epistle of Jude is the penultimate [next to last] book of the New Testament and the Christian Bible. It ...read more

    A personal story of my first few years in ministry. I tie it into the fact that when you are doing effective ministry you will have enemies. Just as Christ did.

Totally unprepared for the reality of it. I was well armed with a bevy of important and well-educated sounding ...read more
