St. Patrick and the Unexpected Horizon: How God Used One Man to Save Civilization

St. Patrick and the Unexpected Horizon: How God Used One Man to Save Civilization
Mar 17, 2025

Pirates. Kidnapping. A Mission That Saved Civilization.

St. Patrick’s story is NOT about leprechauns and lucky charms. It’s about a kidnapped teenager who was enslaved by Irish pirates, only to escape—and then go back to preach the gospel to his former captors. His obedience didn’t just transform Ireland—it laid the foundation for saving Christian civilization as Europe collapsed.

How did one man’s surrender to Christ shape the world? Read more about the real St. Patrick and his life compelled by the Cross.

The Pastor-Theologian: Thinking Deeply, Loving Boldly, Preaching Christ

The Pastor-Theologian: Thinking Deeply, Loving Boldly, Preaching Christ
Mar 8, 2025

This question gets to the heart of ministry. We don’t study theology just for knowledge—we press into Christ so that truth is both understood and lived. The work of a pastor-theologian isn’t just to teach doctrine but to see people transformed into Christ’s likeness.

Maranatha: The Hope of Christ’s Return in a World on Fire
Mar 1, 2025

The world feels like it’s on edge—wars, conflicts, and political turmoil dominate the headlines. But as believers, our hope isn’t in governments or world leaders—it’s in Christ’s return. In uncertain times, we don’t retreat; we look up and cry Maranatha! Come, Lord Jesus! Read more about how we can anchor our faith in the unshakable promise of His return.

Faithful Hospitality: Living for the Sake of the Name

Faithful Hospitality: Living for the Sake of the Name
Jan 3, 2025

In 3 John, the Apostle John commends Gaius for his faithful hospitality to those traveling for the sake of the gospel. This powerful reminder challenges us to live faithfully for "the sake of the Name."

Reflecting on my own journey, I’m grateful for churches like First Baptist Atlanta, the church that sent my family and me out, and others that have welcomed us so graciously. Their hospitality reminds me of Charles Stanley’s words during my ordination charge: “You owe it to us to faithfully follow through with your calling.”

This legacy of love and truth inspires me to ask: How can we open our hearts to others and live faithfully for Jesus today? Read more about this in my latest blog post.

2025: A Year of Intentional Preaching

2025: A Year of Intentional Preaching
Dec 30, 2024

As we embrace the theme of Intentional in 2025, I am committing to greater intentionality in my preaching. This includes ensuring every sermon is rooted in Scripture, centered on the gospel, clear in communication, focused on transformation, practical in application, relationally connected, Spirit-led, and guided by an eternal perspective. I invite you to join me in prayer and accountability as we strive together to glorify God and fulfill His Great Commission.

Moving at the Speed of Obedience: Aligning Our Hearts with God's Purposes
Nov 23, 2024

Moving at the speed of obedience isn't about striving or struggling. It's about surrendering to God's timing and purposes. It's about being so in tune with His heart that when He says "go," we go; when He says "speak," we speak; and when He says "wait," we wait.

Stirrings at First Baptist Starkville
Oct 5, 2024

Christ is making the difference in our hearts at First Baptist Starkville. The Spirit is stirring our affections, leaving us with a desire for more and more of him. Let's continue to plead for his presence. We have yet to see how far he wants to take us or how deep he wants us to go.

15 Years After Ordination
Mar 22, 2024

March 22, 2024, marks 15 years since my ordination at First Baptist Atlanta. This special occasion marks my first ordination without having my ordaining pastor, the late Charles Stanley, who died in April of 2023. As far as I know, I stand last in a long line of men ordained into the gospel ministry under Dr. Charles Stanley's time at First Baptist.

On the Eighth Day

On the Eighth Day
Apr 9, 2023

As strange as it sounds to speak,

Christians say there is an eighth day of the week.

Of course we know our calendar has seven,

But Christians say eight to suggest there is a heaven.

The first day of the week refers to the beginning of something new

But when Christians say eighth we are looking ahead to all that God will do.
