My Job Story, Part 5
http://essentialchurch.tv/my-job-story-part-5/1128
Have you ever considered that Jesus never used his supernatural powers to
punish people, but rather to heal people?
Even when people asked him to do it and he had been slighted by Samaritans: Do
you want us to call down fire from heaven and destroy them? (Luke 9:54)
Even when attacked he didn't use his [...]

The Theology of Suffering
For some reason when it comes to suffering, when people are going through their
own personal Job Story, everyone suddenly becomes a theologian. In an effort to
make sense of the trial, to bring comfort in the pain, people make statements
about God's character and intentions that aren't true. In the book [...]

My Job Story, Part 3
http://essentialchurch.tv/my-job-story-part-3/1122
One of the things that contributes to our dispair in the midst of our suffering
is false assumptions about life. The following two are probably the ones that
throw us off the most:
1. We think, "This is the way the world works: if I'm a good person than good
things will happen to me." We [...]

My Job Story, Part 2
http://essentialchurch.tv/my-job-story-part-2/1119
So in Job 2:9 Job's wife says, "Why don't you curse God and die"
This is what Satan is trying to communicate to you in the midst of your Job
Story. I know that he'll never get my wife to say that to me, but he
doesn't have to. He's able to get me to say [...]

NASCAR Fun
http://essentialchurch.tv/nascar-fun/1104
We had a unique opportunity this past week involving NASCAR. An anonymous
donor from our mission network (SBCV) offered to provide us about 30 tickets
to NASCAR's Rockin Roll 400 at Richmond International Speedway. The idea was
for church planters to use the tickets in any way they can to help build their
church.
First of all let [...]
My Job Story, Part 1
http://essentialchurch.tv/my-job-story-part-1/1107
We all suffer and go through things that are beyond comprehension. One of the
unique things about being a pastor is you end up hearing the things nobody else
does: addictions, chronic health problems, betrayal, affairs, depression,
abusive relationship, the death of a child, and so on. I've found that
everyone seems to think that [...]

Wow, what a day!!! Sunday was the perfect beach day: not too hot, not
too cold and blue skies. I'm not sure how many people we had since people kept
coming all morning. Maria Watson did a great job organizing the food for the
day. We ate all the hamburgers and only had one hot dog left [...]
