Having coached a few Cadets when they played high school football, and having so many Cadets attend the church I pastor (Valley Christian Church) while they are (were) at West Point, and my father-in-law being a 20 year Army Vet (Bronze Star recipient), there’s only one thing left to say on this day: “Go Army!

Read more "TEN THINGS PASTORS WISH THEIR CONGREGATIONS UNDERSTOOD ABOUT THEM"Heard this incredible quote many years ago and was reminded of it recently. I believe it will help someone going through a tough time right now. “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.

Read more "Day of Destiny"Now that the rush of Good Friday and Easter has subsided, you might expect a pastor like me, to feel a little let down, but nothing could be further from the truth. Excited, doesn’t seem to really capture what I feel in my heart about our new series at Valley Christian Church called, “Four Cups“. I’m […]
Read more "Fired Up For Four Cups"Sometimes, I read an article or blog post that is so exact and precise that there is nothing else to do but to share the link with those of you that read my posts. The link to Ron Edmondson’s post “10 Secrets of Many Senior Pastors” is certainly one of these kind of posts. Of […]
Read more "10 Secrets of Many Senior Pastors – Ron Edmondson"One of the many things I love about VALLEY Christian Church, the church I’ve been blessed to pastor for almost 25 years now, is the commitment of the people in the VALLEY Family to reach our community with innovative approaches that think “outside the box”.
