In yesterday’s sermon I challenged everyone to choose one of the four gospels and read one chapter a day from that gospel. I mentioned that I had chosen John and would post on my blog each day what the Holy Spirit said to me as I read that from God’s word. Today I read chapter… Read More »
Sunday Highlights 10.04.2015
It’s hard to write about Sunday without mentioning the rain and the massive flooding across our state. Parts of Columbia are under water and the city was under a curfew after 6:00 pm Sunday evening. Even sections of Interstate highway have been closed. Our son, Steven, and his wife were in Myrtle Beach for a… Read More »
Summer of Sharing 2015: England – Saturday
All week our team and members of Oikos Church have been inviting people to a “Summer Fun Day” scheduled for today in a local park. Several thousand homes received invite cards that were put through the mail drop in their front doors, an acceptable approach here.

After a night of very good sleep I wanted to say a few words about yesterday @ FBC…I loved it. It was great seeing all the graduates on stage – this is a really fun group. Since I’ve served as Pastor at FBC longer than they’ve been alive, I’ve watched many of them grow up.… Read More »

Uncle Donald Eugene Prewitt
When they first met he was a devout Christian and she followed a different religion. In fact, she knew very little about Jesus Christ. Yet over the next three years they talked often, with my uncle Don always telling her something about Jesus and how to have a relationship with Him. Eventually she committed her… Read More »
A Smile and A Conversation
Megan has a big smile. She’s young, outgoing and likes people. I noticed her while eating lunch today at a local restaurant where she works. She was a natural at checking on customers, easily talking to them but not in a way that seemed overbearing or intrusive. Since I’m also a talker, when she arrived… Read More »
Observations, Questions, and Comments
An observation, question, and comment: The observation – a couple expressing their love for each other. Last week Monieca and I ate a late breakfast/early lunch at a Waffle House in NC. Through the window I saw a middle aged couple in the parking lot kiss then get into separate vehicles to go different places.… Read More »
Two Conversations
Earlier this week I had brief conversations with two different women and heard God speaking to my heart after each one. So I thought I’d share them with you. The first happened with an employee at a Best Buy store. She was helping me with various questions about blue tooth and cable connections for my… Read More »
