OT Storyline Video
On Wednesday, April 13, 2011 @ msy YOUTH we showed the students a 22-minute video from Willow Creek called “Old Testament Rewind”. It walked the students, humorously, through the storyline of the OT. To help give the students some structure as they watched this video, I hung up two strings across our 30′ stage. On […]

Mind Warp
The title of this post should be: Random. But “random” is well, random. So I borrowed the title of the chapter where this story come from in the ministry book I’ve been reading: Middle School Ministry: a comprehensive guide to working with early adolescents by Mark Oestreicher and Scott Rubin. Random is the best way to describe […]
Three Cups of Tea (review)
Greg Mortenson loves kids. His passion is not fighting the war on terror (although his work, arguably, is REALLY redirecting extremism), rather it is educating children. Mortenson operates his educational initiatives in northern Pakistan and Afghanistan. His organization is called the Central Asia Institute (CAI). Since the mid-1990’s, after a failed attempt at K2, Mortenson, […]

Walking Hormones?
I’ve been reading a book entitled: Middle School Ministry: a comprehensive guide to working with early adolescents by Mark Oestreicher and Scott Rubin. Any book written by people who work closely with this particular age group consists of either extreme frustrations or extremely humorous stories. Marko and Scott’s writing and stories reveal two adults who view […]

How Much is a Website Domain Name Worth?

Both of these domains cost $15 a year to own. I had came across an article that encouraged people to purchase their last name as a domain name […]

Story of Elijah on Mount Carmel (story, video & audio)
After Israel splits into two separate countries (North=Israel, South=Judah), a series of kings rule each of them. In the north, things aren’t going so hot. Remember: God’s people (the Israelites) are supposed to show the world what God is like. The northern country of Israel, especially the leaders, were wicked and evil people. Thus, the […]
Outsourcing Our Children’s Spiritual Development?
Yesterday in church, Matt Jones shared about his role as a parent in the lives of his children. Specifically, Matt was alluding to his job (along with his wife, Cara) as the chief source of spiritual development for his children. While he appreciates the role of the church (particularly its programs), he does not “outsource” […]
