UPDATE: Search Team

So it’s been a while since we have had an update from the Pastoral Search Team and I wanted to give the faithful readers out there in blog-dom an early scoop as to the progress of the process.
After reviewing several resumes one applicant seems to stand out from the rest and the committee will be moving [...]

Flow

 

With the beautiful weather we’ve been having lately I’ve been thinking a lot about the river. We are so blessed in the Northwest to have several awesome rivers really close, and when it’s hot I am happy to enjoy them all I can.

Time Away

This week has the makings of being fairly quiet around to old office.  Pastor Joe is off on vacation from today until next Monday(so don’t call him), this is a very important time for him.  The Life Group I am a part of has just recently started going through the book of Hebrews and we [...]

I was talking with a pastor yesterday [...]

The Horizon

On the horizon is a big time opportunity.

Proximity Conference

For the past two days Matt and I attended an evangelism conference here in Gresham. From this conference I came away with a fresh charge to do whatever it takes to remain relevant in our community. This is a tricky thing because, chances are at some point what I like, is not going to be [...]

Mr. Right

 
 Invite your friends to hear Erik Foster speak this week about Mr. Right. He will be outlining what the Bible says about who is qualified to be a pastor. And the graphic Joe has done is really awesome…top shelf. Maybe with some encouraging comments, he might post it.
