this is our God

 


I woke with a song on my mind, which happens often.  After a great but busy weekend of ministry I want to just tell you what is on my mind, and it is this…


This is Our God by Phil Wickham


This is our God, this is who He is

He loves us

This is our God, this is what He does

He saves us

He bore the cross, beat the grave

Let Heaven and Earth proclaim

This is our God, King Jesus

Remember that fear that took our breath away?

Faith so weak that we could barely pray

But He heard every word, every whisper


That is just part of the song.  And so good.  Go check it out for yourself.


What a great song, and what a great God we have.  May we see and bring attention to God more and more.


Hosea 3:5  NLT  

But afterward the people will return and devote themselves to the Lord their God and to David’s descendant, their king. In the last days, they will tremble in awe of the Lord and of his goodness.


Thank you to all who prayed for Raceway Ministry.  It was a great weekend with lots of Jesus conversations and over 100 people at our worship services.  Our team of volunteers were incredible, hard working and served so many fans.


Now I pray that the conversations and the Gospel takes root in the lives of those who heard and saw.  As the song I shared says, “this is our God… and He loves us.”


Please continue to pray for the upcoming mission trips to West Virginia and Cuba.  Pray especially for the funds and resources needed for the Cuba trip.

Francis Chan's "Forgotten God" (brand new book)

One of the most powerful preachers, writers and leaders of our time, in my opinion, is Francis Chan.  His first book, Crazy Love , revolutionized my thoughts about God's love as well as my interacting with God.  Now it is time for a brand new book from Chan being released tomorrow, September 1st.  The book is Forgotten God .   This is a phenomenal book about the power that Christians and the church can and must tap into.  All of it is within the Holy Spirit.  Francis talks about the power that was seen in the book of Acts when the Holy Spirit began to move among people.  It is true that many have avoided or maybe forgotten what the Holy Spirit is all about.   And like the Savior who poured out His life and blood so we have reason to rejoice, we were made to lay down our lives and give until it hurts.  We are most alive when we are loving and actively giving of ourselves because we were made to do these things.  It is when we live like this that the Spirit of God moves and ac...

inspiration from C.S. Lewis

There are many people, past and present, who get our attention by what they write or say or share.  For me C.S. Lewis is one of those.  He was a prolific writer who continues to grab the attention of thinkers from many different points of view. Lewis first grabbed my attention when I was in 5 th grader, and our teacher, Mrs. Foy, shared The Chronicles of Narnia with our class.  It was a powerful time that this dreamer opened doors to thinking like I had never lived before.  He wrote of faith, of far off places and of strong figures who found their character rooted deep in God. C.S. Lewis was born in 1898 and died in 1963, 7 years before I was born.  It wasn’t until his 30’s that under the influence of his friend Tolkien that he came to be a Christian.  He was raised in a traditional church going home, turned away from God as an Atheist in his teen years and through trying to stay away from God and faith returned to God with...
