Genesis

This week we will begin our trek through the Old Testament. Your children have been taught throughout the fall and into winter about Jesus and how He wanted us to live. Now it is our intention to show what started the whole need for Jesus to come. It started in Genesis 3.

We will be covering the creation of man and the fall of man. Please take the new year to jump in with your children and learn something as well.

Grace and Peace,

There is something in the air.

I think it is something big.

An under current.

Everything looks one way, but there is something moving underneath. We have to let it move us. We have to stop fighting it. We have to feel it, give into it and move with it. I just pray that when I release myself to it - it will move faster than ever and engulf me.

God, please don't let me continue to move in my own direction. Pull me under and take me to a place with this church that we have never dreamed about before. We are begging for your miraculous appearance. Show yourself through this staff and through this church.

In Jesus name,
Amen

I'm Back in the Posting World

So, it has been a while since I last posted. Things have been going great and God has been blessing us like crazy. Everything from sound systems to groceries. We are going to have a week off and then come back to finish Jesus Top 4 Highlights with His death and resurrection. Then we are going to start heading into the book of Genesis. We have shown the kids Jesus and His teachings. Now we want to show how the entire Old Testament leads to Jesus. It ought to be interesting.

Grace and Peace....and Merry Christmas!

The following video I created to outline our next 4 week series. The video is a countdown until service and then my version of Jesus Top 4 Highlights. It is going to be a Sportscenter kind of feel for the series and we are going to be doing Jesus highlights. It ought to be a lot of fun.

This first Sunday we are going to be talking about sin and how to avoid it. Our key verse will be James 4:7: Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Have a great week end.

Grace and Peace,
Brantley

Your Day

I am interested. I am interested to see what a typical day looks like for you. If you wouldn't mind, send me an e-mail outlining your typical day. Whatever your job is - let me know. If you want to remain anonymous, I believe there is a way to leave a comment without your name. Otherwise, shoot me an e-mail at . It should not take more than two minutes. Thanks.

Time and Understanding,
Brantley

I need your prayer. No one else can pray your prayer. God will not hear your voice through someone else. I need you and your voice before the Lord.

I am over my head in stress. I love pressure, but this is ridiculous. I am trying to get done with school and the work is piling up. For those of you who do not know, I am a husband full-time, I work full-time, I am a children's minister and I am taking three classes through Liberty University when most people working full-time jobs only take one class.

Needless to say at this point - I need all the prayer I can get. Thank you.

Love and Blessings,
Brantley
