There is nothing greater than having a group of people come together with one cause, one vision, one heart and one mind to make a difference in the world.

Ephesians 4:4-6 is one of my favorite Scriptures: “There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to one hope when you were called— one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.”

The reality is that teamwork makes the dreamwork. Jack Welsh said that the best team wins every time. It’s why I’m so grateful to be leading the most amazing team of staff and unpaid servants in the city of Wichita at GracePoint! On Saturday this army of people went out into the neighborhood for what we call “SERVOLUTION” and made a huge difference in a bunch of people’s lives. They also went down to Interfaith Ministies and threw a carnival for the community of Interfaith and the homeless. You can see a little bit of the action by clicking HERE.

What I love about the Dream Team of unpaid servants at GracePoint is that they get all fired up when it’s time to go out and help people. The fact is it’s in their DNA. They want to make a difference in this city and transform it one life at a time. In that video, the look on that elderly woman’s face makes it all worth it to serve people.

I’m a team guy. I have never been a big fan of individual sports. There is something incredible about coming together with a group of people and accomplishing something as one body. The dream of transforming this city is HUGE, and it’s only going to happen through a great TEAM!!!

I was reading recently that every dream goes through a birth, death and resurrection. I am a dreamer and remember back to the time in my early 20’s when God instilled the dream in my heart to one day start a new church. Why did I wait a decade to begin birthing the dream? I think a [...]

I’m looking forward to jumping back into the blogging world. It’s been quite a year and what’s in the near future with GracePoint Church is so exciting  that I want to be able to share it with the online community. I want to give a huge thanks to Bill Bolte and Terry Johnson for putting together the new [...]

Hello Blogosphere…. I’ve taken a season of fasting from the blog world to focus on hearing from God and seeking His direction. I’ve known with every fiber in my being that I was called to pastor since I was 21 years old. The ride I’ve been on has been nothing short of incredible. The vision [...]

Greetings… long time no blog. Let me just say that I am in a season of fasting from both writing and reading blogs. Why? Because over the past six plus years I have devoted my life to studying the church, learning from leaders of great churches, reading everything I could get my hands on, etc.
At this [...]
