Something New

Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?  I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.  Isaiah 43:19

Welcome to my new blog!  For more than 30 years God has allowed me to serve his church through pastoral leadership in established Southern Baptist Churches. Each church has been unique.  The first church I served was a rural family chapel.  Two have been in suburban settings, and three have been First Baptist Churches in county-seat towns.  I love the church!

Because I love the local church I want to share insights and ideas on topics related to pastoral ministry, church growth, strategic planning, stewardship development and mission strategy.  The initial plan is to post one article each week on Thursday mornings.  So, stay tuned!  Let the Journey Begin.
