We’ve posted our first on-line message on The Bridge’s website. It’s not the best quality, but it’s a start. I’m learning that the less you compare yourself with others, the better off you will be!

We’re trying to do a free give away every time we finish a series. For our Life Spa series, we gave away bath salts. One of our volunteers worked hard in putting it together. This time, we are giving away free magnets. By the way, give-aways don’t have to be expensive. As I was placing [...]

This week’s lesson: 1. Surround yourself with mentors. 2. Resist the temptation of comparison. Comparing yourself to people who seem to be doing better than you can cause you to see God’s success in your life as failure. 3. Uncertainties are opportunities to trust in God to do what only He can do. 4. Guard [...]

This week is coming to close. If you’re in the DC area, you know we’ve been getting alot of rain lately. My wife and I were taking a walk around the lake earlier this week. We began to notice that a good amount of water evaporated from the lake. She then said, “We need rain.” [...]

Yesterday, we launched out our series, The Fear That Haunts Me, at The Bridge. I truly had a great time. Our attendance was around the same number. But get this!

I have two meetings today, so I wanted to grab some study time in this morning. Here’s one of the things I’ve learned. God gives us gifts and opportunities, but he does not give us fear along with it. The fear creeps in from another source. Our mission is to move forward in what He [...]

Things went well at The Bridge this past Sunday. A reporter from the Silver Spring Gazette came out to do a story on our church. They found out about The Bridge through one of our promo cards. A young lady named Agnes called me last week and wanted to do a story. I was so [...]

Here’s a great feeling I’m starting to get used to. It’s the sense of ease that comes with going into the weekend knowing that my Sunday message is already prepared. Yahoo! I have time to do great things like help my wife out with house chores and take my mom-in-law out for her birthday. Howard [...]
