Believe and Submit: Gospel-Centered Conversations
We talk a lot about sharing our faith with someone, and trying to convince people that Jesus is Lord and Savior. But practically, what do we say to these people? How do we guide the conversation when people are searching for faith? Maybe even more importantly, what do we do and say when someone thinksContinue reading “Believe and Submit: Gospel-Centered Conversations”
End of the Year Update (2025)
End-Of-Year Ministry Update As we prepare to celebrate Christmas and welcome 2026, we give thanks to God for another year of ministry in Bullitt County.

Do you struggle with retaining the information from the Sunday sermon? Maybe in the moment, you’re agreeing with everything you hear from the pastor, only to find yourself on Monday or Tuesday having completely forgotten the details.

As I read through the materialContinue reading “When Life Punches You in the Mouth”

Consider the following verses this week: Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God?

How Can I Pray For You?
Something that I notice in most of Paul’s letters, is that he tells his recipients that he’s been praying for them. I think this is a wonderful thing that Paul does. Not only is he praying for these people, but he’s telling them he’s praying for them. I know from personal experience the love andContinue reading “How Can I Pray For You?”
