Pics from Winter Xtreme 09

Xtreme was a blast again this year and I was glad to be with such good friends backing me up. Here are some pics of us leading worship and of Marcus, Matt, and Jake being...

50 Years of Marriage

My wife and I drove down to Deland, Florida to celebrate her grandparents 50th wedding anniversary. She worked really hard to bring it all together and managed to keep it a surprise to boot. My wife is super great at surprises (remind me to tell you about my 30th birthday sometime) and it always makes...

Day 1 of Winter Xtreme 2009

We’re blessed to be leading worship up here in Pigeon Forge for Winter Xtreme once again. I brought with me some great leaders from Oak Leaf Church to be my band this year. Very proud! I’ve been loading up images on the camera I got for Christmas so as soon as I figure out how to...

Technical Problems

my website has been down for quite some time. Finally got it working again thanks to the amazing magical wonders of the super Seth Skinner. while I was away, I was working on a redesign just to have something up and am now contemplating actually changing my theme all together. not sure what to do. what I...

Week 4

So I decided to try something revolutionary. My first week of camp made eating right a bit difficult but I held strong until the weekend. Saturday night my wife and I went on a date and decided to try Big Pie in the Sky pizza which is right down the road from our house (and...

SuperWOW Fort Walton Week 1

What a great week! What a great group of students. Excited and passionate about worship God. Technology was our enemy this week – computers failing, in-ears breaking, power black outs, you name it – but GOD WAS STILL GLORIFIED!!! We don’t need no stinkin’ tech to worship God! My favorite part about the week was meeting the...

Week 3

This week was frustrating. I kept to my diet but actually gained weight. I upped the amount of weight I was using in the routine and so I know people are going to say, “muscle weighs more than fat” which I will quickly respond, “but that doesn’t help me if it is hidden by the...

Wireless Power Is Coming

This is the one thing I wish I was smart enough to invent. I had the idea a long time ago but of course…I’m not a scientist or engineer so I had no idea where to even begin. Plus, all the smart people who did have the know how were already working on it behind...

Week 2

WEEK 2 They say the first two weeks are the hardest and well…it was pretty hard. I pushed myself further than I ever have before. 40 minute non-stop workout routine followed by either a 30-45 minute run or an hour bike ride (one in which I rode from Acworth to Cartersville to work) for six straight...

I’m Not On A Diet. I’m Eating As God Intended.

WEEK 1 I’m on a workout routine and am changing what I eat to help the results. Specifically I am doing Power90 which as I understand it is P90x for slower, fatter, more out of shape people (like myself). Basically, it is an older version of P90x with phases that allow a weak, pathetic individual (like...

Saying Goodbye to Oak Leaf :(

Posted 1 year, 1 month ago in Leadership, Life and Family, Oak Leaf
  for the last year I have worked full-time with some of the most gifted and inspiring people I have ever known. The friends and “family” I have made being on staff at a church far surpasses my experiences on staff at a school and traveling around play in all sorts...

Supermodel – Model Parent

Posted 1 year, 3 months ago in Oak Leaf
There are 10,000 gumballs at the OLC office if any body is looking for a fix to there sweet tooth. And if you don’t understand why, you should have been at church. Does anybody read this who does not go to church? I’m actually curious. Does anybody read this anyway....

Supermodel – Model Church

Posted 1 year, 4 months ago in Oak Leaf
Don’t you love the fact I forget to post and then go back and post posts as if they were written when the post should have been written? I’m sure that habit makes real bloggers the web over cringe. Anyway, great start to the new series and i’m excited about...

Fountain of Truth: Judiasm

Posted 1 year, 4 months ago in Oak Leaf
We had a guest speaker today and she was phenomenal. Who beter to speak about Judiasm than a converted Jew. You wouldn’t have thought it was going to be as moving as it was meeting her and listening to her speak, but man did she knock it out of the...

40 Day Blog Fast Finally Over

I didn’t announce it and didn’t really talk about it, but the few readers i have may have noticed I haven’t written anything in a very long time. Why? I decided after several stressful weeks in a row that i needed to get a bit more organized and needed to...

OLC Sunday Report

Posted 1 year, 6 months ago in Oak Leaf
More records being broken at the Leaf. Highest attendance ever outside of Easter today. 2nd service was almost 100% full and 3rd service was 114% full. Seriously. People were sitting in the isles. We’ve also noticed a bit more cultural diversity in our seats. I don’t know how much of...

OLC Sunday Report

Posted 1 year, 7 months ago in Oak Leaf
Michael talked about demons today. I wish it had been a little scarier than it was because I honestly believe most people in America don’t believe in demons. Even the ones who believe in God. But boy, have I got stories I could tell. Trust me, it is REAL. Anyway,...

Prayer Guide Day 5 – Mitch Moyer

Posted 1 year, 7 months ago in Oak Leaf
My prayer for Oak Leaf Church’s opening Sunday at the Movie Theater is as follows: Pray that droves of new people will check it out for the first time. Pray that those who live north of town who checked out on us for a while because of distance will come back again. Pray...

Prayer Guide Day 4 – Me

Posted 1 year, 7 months ago in Oak Leaf
We have made the word "worship" synonymous with the music we sing on Sunday morning and forgotten it is a lifestyle and a mindset that extends far beyond the boundaries of a one hour experience on Sunday mornings. If we really want to see people taken from where they are...
