I'm in over my head!

I'm trying to lead Solid Rock Church but I feel like I'm in over my head. I don't know that I've got the leadership skills, the organizational methods, or even the preaching ability to do the job God called me to do.

Thank God that it's not up to me. I have to remind myself that Jesus said he would build the church. Not me.

I guess I'll never be satisfied with myself as a pastor, but I am content knowing that as long as I seek God, He will lead the way. I'll do the best I can to improve my skills, but ultimately, anything I accomplish will be by God's grace.

My sister-in-law, Sandy, and her six-year-old daughter, Araceli, were in a room across the hall. I hardly slept that night. I would doze off and suddenly wake up to my father crying and calling out my brother’s name.  My brother was dead. Osiel had collapsed that morning while his h...

Try not to laugh too hard

So we finally gave in and bought a Wii. It turns out that it's a lot of fun. Unfortunately, my kids were having fun at my expense. I was trying out the boxing and had no idea Bethany was video taping me. The jerky movement at the end of the clip is Bethany shaking because she was laughing so hard.

Happy Anniversary!

Today is the one-year anniversary of the beginning of this blog. I started blogging on June 9, 2007 with this post . One year later, I'm still enjoying blogging about what's going on at Solid Rock Church, and linking to other interesting blogs and articles, as well as blogging about some of my thoughts and reflections related to Solid Rock and the church world in general. I know I have a few readers out there, so as long as there are three of you reading this blog, I guess I'll keep it going. And remember, comments are always welcomed!
