Christmas Eve at Pathmakers Church

What is Christmas Eve at Pathmakers Church?  It’s only the best 30 minutes you’ll spend this Christmas!  Regardless of how much you like to Jingle Bell Rock Around the Christmas tree. 30 minutes of classic Christmas carols, the Christmas stories read from the Bible, and a few great videos helping us all get centered on the reason […]

RESET SUNDAY :: NO WORSHIP SERVICE DECEMBER 28, 2014

RESET SUNDAY :: NO WORSHIP SERVICE ON DECEMBER 28, 2014 Allow me to explain…  That whole “it’s Church, but Different” isn’t a clever catch-phrase for us (it is a little “catchy” though, isn’t it?). And one of the more “different” things we do as a group is take some intentional days off… sabbaticals from our […]

Fall 2014 Message Series

In September/October 2014, we’re going to spend some time in one of the most popular, yet most mysterious, letters the Apostle Paul ever wrote… Ephesians.  Known as “The Epistle To The Ephesians,” this book of the New Testament is referred to as the “Queen” of the Apostle Paul’s writings.  It’s popularity is due in part […]

Invite someone to “The Original Blockbuster” this summer!

I’m excited about the next message series, one that will probably span several months.  We will look at some of the greatest stories in the Bible and meet a variety of people in circumstances facing challenges of all kinds… and looking at God’s involvement in all of them.  By the end of the series, I […]

Growing Roots

“Sugar and spice and everything nice… that’s what little girls are made of…” goes an old folk poem from the 19th century. Whatever. WOMEN(!) are made of ideas and thoughts, challenges and troubles, hopes and regrets, drama and joy, victories and dreams, complex emotions and simple desires (and vice versa)… most of all, we’re made in […]

You know what they say about movies, right? “The movie was okay, but the book was way better…” You’ve said it, too, when your favorite book was turned into a movie.  The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Chronicles of Narnia, The Hunger Games, The Hobbit, and the films from Jane Austin, Tom Clancy, or […]

Easter :: the story like you’ve never heard before…

The Bible isn’t the only place you can find out about what Jesus did, how He died, and the almost-over-night-explosion of people claiming to have seen Jesus resurrected from the dead.  It’s true!   A handful of contemporary sources cite both the Man and the Movement that worshiped him as God and spread the Good […]

Nicaragua Vision Trip :: Day Three

Sorry, another short update because it is already past midnight and we have an early start with a long last day ahead of us.  Today, we were able to visit a special place to the mission known as Finca Belem, which translates into English as “Bethlehem Farm.”  There is a neat story with respect to […]

No Worship Service Labor Day Sunday (and why that’s a good thing!)

If you’re a regular at Pathmakers, you probably already know about “Reset Sundays” and how it all works. If you’re new to Pathmakers, you probably have NO IDEA what we’re talking about. Allow me to explain… About three times a year, we have what we call “Reset Sundays.” On Reset Sundays, we cancel our main […]
