I was riding in a car with a friend who was driving on a field, surveying property, when we came across a muddy depression.

Just a year and a half ago, we launched our second campus, The Bridge Randhurst. Today, we are a week away from launching our third, The Bridge Northside. Why? People have asked me, “Don’t you have enough going on, Scott?” Well, I’m not bored. And yes, I have enough going on in my life and ministry. But this is not about me. It’s not about the rest of our staff, our elders, or even you. This is about Jesus and what he told us to do 2,000 years ago in his final instructions be

I’ve been digitizing our family videos so that they are on a more permanent and up-to-date media.

Forget the tightrope, I can’t balance on a stationary balance beam. It’s funny, when it’s close to the ground, I can run right across for yards, without any trouble.

Mike (not his really name) grew up in a stable family, had a good wife and a couple of happy kids. He had a decent job, drove a newer car, and lived in a nicer house than I have ever lived in. And he was healthy.But to him, everything was wrong. His parents were annoying, his wife was a nag, his kids misbehaved, his job was stressful, his car didn’t have bluetooth, his house needed repairs, and the doctor said it was time for a colonoscopy. How bad can it get?I wasn’t very sy
