Acts of the Holy Spirit: The Final Chapter?
Wow, one year and one week later, we’ve concluded the “Acts of the Holy Spirit” Sunday morning series at The Gathering. What a great journey that was as we systematically saw how God worked through individuals to form His church and spread His Gospel throughout the world. Of course, that wasn’t actually the final chapter…

The Sacred Acre
You must watch this video. It’s an incredible story of one man who lived what he said he believed. This is what living according to a biblical worldview is all about.

Tweeting From Catalyst
Decided to leave the Mac in the car (hopefully that’s where it will be when I get back!), so I’ll be mainly Tweeting from Catalyst. I’ll probably give a wrap up tonight. Follow me.

One…
