“I thank my God always when I remember you in my prayers, because I hear of your love and of the faith that you have toward the Lord Jesus and all the saints, and I pray that the sharing of your faith may become effective for the full knowledge of every good things that is in us for the sake of Christ. For I have derived much joy and comfort from your love, my brother, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you.” Philemon 1:4-7

Today, know that you are loved and appreciated greatly for your faith and labors for the sake of Christ. Be encouraged and join us in praise and joy that the Lord is using you to refresh the saints in your LifeGroups. Continue to pray and ask God to surprise and amaze us with more of who He is.

Fight the good fight! Press on!

I have been rescued by the love of God through Christ. It is the love of Christ that compels me to pursue a life that says, "He must increase, but I must decrease." I am married to Stefani, the love of my life, and we have 4 children including three amazingly beautiful daughters, Makayla, Molly & Maycee and one wonderful son, Myles.
