The Fields Church : Little Drummer Boy

CLICK inside to watch on YouTube site. For some reason by blog only shows 1/3 of the screen.

Welcome aboard!

I'm excited to announce the addition of Elgin and Christina Combs to The Fields Church. Elgin will serve as a worship pastor who will coordinate all worship gatherings, develop musicians, and give leadership to our band as they encourage and inspire all of use to worship our amazing God.

His first weekend will be November 13/14.

We believe God continues to guide and lead us at The Fields Church. We will continue to share the powerful story of Jesus with our community. And we will continue to help people understand their need to follow Him in every aspect of their lives.

Speak Freely

Laughs. Tears. Silence. Worship. Confession. Compassion.

The Permission to Speak Freely tour was a powerful event hosted at The Fields Church Sunday night. Anne Jackson, Susan Isaacs and Sloveig Leithaug shared their personal stories in a way that gave absolute permission for anyone in the room to be open about their own lives--and they did.

It was an amazing night to be encouraged. It was a freeing night to share struggles. It was a humbling night as a pastor to hear how the church has been a blessing. It was an eye-opening night in how the church can be the problem. It was a wonderful night to watch God heal inner lives.

I'm thankful for three ladies willing to share. I'm hopeful it will be contagious.

Multi-Generational Musicians

Here's a great example of musicians in the their 20s to late 60s (maybe 70s) having a lot of fun on stage. These guys may have been around the block a few times, but they still know how to put on a good show for the crowd.

Unbelievable Opportunity: Anne Jackson

We have the privilege of hosting Anne Jackson's tour.

This is a MUST ATTEND event. It really is.

Getting healthy

Since July 19 I've completed 32 workouts, went 249.96 miles through biking, walking and jogging, and lost 28 pounds.

And I feel good.

Mornings with My Boys

Dakota is in Second Grade.

Riley is in Kindergarten.

They are sponges.

This year I am doing my best to start every morning sharing some spiritual insight into their lives. At first you may think, these guys are young...what could they really understand?

I think they understand a lot. These are forming years. These are the huge opportunities to shape our kids into who they will become as adults.

So, every morning at the breakfast table we'll talk about God's Word and how it can apply to our lives. We talk, we read, we answer questions about life, and we pray.

And as a parent, I found a tool that made this VERY easy.

I use "My First Message: A Devotional Bible for Kids.

I love it.
