The Town Of Jesus :: Winter 2015
It’s almost like God really enjoys defying everyone’s expectations. Perhaps this is most evident in the Son of God, Himself, Jesus… fully God, fully man, and completely original. And among the many ways Jesus defied expectation is this little fact… instead of “being everywhere” like he could have been, Jesus chose one large town in the […]
New Year, New Message Series, New Challenges
I knew this message series was coming… I just wasn’t sure what to call it. As part of the “Original Blockbuster” mega-series taking us periodically through some of the most important stories from the Hebrew Scriptures (“Old Testament” is the more widely used term, but I prefer the other), we’re coming up on a difficult […]

By the end of the series, I […]
The Original Blockbuster :: Sundays, All Summer Long

The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Chronicles of Narnia, The Hunger Games, The Hobbit, and the films from Jane Austin, Tom Clancy, or […]
When God Calls You… – The Story of Jonah
…coming September 2013 to Pathmakers… The story of Jonah, found in the Hebrew Old Testament, is among the most debated passages of Scripture in the entire Bible. Some scholars argue it is purely allegorical, maybe a didactic fable or nursery rhyme for children, or, at best, an embellished narrative about a prophet who lived in […]
