So I’m pretty excited about tomorrow. Why? Well, Sojourn isn’t having a service tomorrow. But that’s not what I’m excited about. I’m excited because it means that I get to go to another church tomorrow. I haven’t been to any other churches up here. And I can’t wait to go to the one we’re [...]

So my day has been completely consumed with emailing and phoning people. It started this morning at 8:45 and ended about 30 minutes ago around 5:30. I’m surprised I’m still in any mood whatsoever to be typing.

I just looked at my email, and today I sent 35 emails to different supporters of Sojourn and [...]

Someone once told that every city has sort of a demon sitting over it. Not so much a demon, but a spirit. Every city has a spirit about it that keeps people from God. He is the pastor of a church in San Diego, CA, so he felt like the demon over San Diego had [...]

So the big day was actually yesterday. It’s just taken me a whole day to get over all that went on.

So yesterday was Sojourn’s first preview service. Wow, what a day. I got up at 5 in the morning, shaved, and took a shower. Got in the car around 6:15. Arrived at the theater [...]

So I just realized I haven’t posted anything in an entire week. That’s really bad for me. But allow me to explain…

So I’m thinking, “Gosh, 8 people. I’m not sure we’re going to have room [...]

So I talked be fore about how we finally finished the road signs for Sojourn. Well, now, our brochures are done! Now, when I say brochure, I don’t mean some little pamphlet with nice pictures of people smiling and enjoying our worship. When I say brochure [...]

I love Craig’s list. I really do. It’s a wonderful thing. Last week I put up a couple of posts on Craig’s list about needed musicians for Sojourn. And it has been awesome how many people have contacted me wanting to audition. I’ve getting at least one email a day since I posted it 5 [...]

I was talking with my new friend Gil the other day about trying to get some musicians to play at Sojourn. Gil is a worship leader here and knows a ton of guys, which is great because I don’t know anybody.

We started talking about some musicians he knows when he said something I hadn’t [...]

“And he (Jesus) did not do many miracles there because of their lack of faith.” -Matthew 13:58

This verse is scary to me. There is a lot to learn from this verse. This verse is a wake up call. It is a stark reminder. It calls me to action.

So Jesus goes back into Nazareth, his [...]
