More Than Just Facebook Friends

So, this thing happened after our gathering on Sunday.  It happens all the time, actually, but I guess I noticed it in a new way on Sunday.  Our main meeting had been over for 30 minutes, we had just finished packing up the storage truck, the kids were running around playing tag, and people were […]

It’s Church, But Different! Find out how and why…

That line we use “It’s Church, but Different” is not a clever catch phrase.  Frankly, it’s not all that catchy and it definitely isn’t clever.  All it is is simple truth from a simple church that simply wants to be the kind of gathering of Christ-followers that… well… Jesus Christ intended us to be.  Don’t […]

They Had Been With Jesus…

They Had Been With Jesus – Spring 2013 – Message Series To many Christians, the original Apostles can seem like superheroes. They were there to witness the miracles of Jesus.

Hey gents, We have a morning study for guys this winter/spring where we’re going to dive into the so-called Pastoral Letters (1, 2 Timothy, Titus… and we’ll add Philemon for good measure).  No commentaries, no books, no study guides, no pre-printed Bible studies… just us, our Bibles, and each other.  Not that those other things […]

Why do we “reset” every few months…

It’s that time of year again when we “reset” in preparation for the upcoming season.  At Pathmakers, that means we take a break from worshipping together and force a week of rest for everyone on our team, from the most committed core leader to the guest just having a look.  I’m not sure that we […]

Good News, Bad News, and More Good News

Okay… so, the good news is that a lot of people said the message today was really, really good. Which is nice, because I was concerned that it would fall flat.  That does happen sometimes.  But, in fact, apparently it was great… Which brings us to the bad news… the message didn’t get recorded so […]

Tim Tebow, Jesus Christ, and the biggest problem they have in common…

You don’t have to be a Colorado sports fan to know about Tim Tebow.  If for some reason you don’t know about this outspoken Christian who took the Denver Broncos from local embarrassments to international sensations during the 2011-2012 NFL season, please, by all means, look at this link or you’ll have no idea what […]
