A Beautiful Mess

We are excited to announce our new book! Now available on Kindle and in paperback, A Beautiful Mess: Coming from a dysfunctional family doesn’t destine you for a dysfunctional life. 

Family. This group of people has so much power over us. Our familial experiences forever shape our lives. Truth be told, family can be a source of life-giving joy. Family can also be a source of palpable pain that leaves us angry, confused and unable to move on. And yet… when we search the pages of the Scriptures… we see that families are building blocks of society. In fact, God brought about redemption through a family. In the midst of pain and brokenness, God promises healing through adoption into a new family with him as our heavenly father. In this book, we journey through the biblical account of Genesis addressing challenges facing every one of our families. These challenges make us who we are. But even in the mess of family dysfunction, God can make something beautiful … through the power of the Gospel!

This book is based on a sermon series we preached through the book of Genesis in the Spring of 2019 but has a ton of new content including sections on Addressing the Mess with Boundaries, Addressing the Mess of Addiction and Addressing the Mess caused by Trauma. Check it out!

All proceeds from the purchase of this book go to MBC.

A Neglected Topic 2020 has many options for word of the year: “Unprecedented.” “Social Distancing.” “Mitigation.” “Lockdown.” “Unrest.” As I write these words we have come to the end of the most interesting year in my lifetime. One year ago, on Christmas Eve, who would have thought that we would be operating at 25% capacity

Lessons from Kings

Have you ever felt like God was “done” with you? Perhaps you messed up really bad and you think, “This is it. I am toast. I’m too far gone. God’s done with me now.” We have spent the last two and a half months studying the books of First and Second Kings. Originally one book,

Conclusion: Two Invitations from Wisdom and Folly (Prov 7:1-9:18) – Part 3

The beginning of Proverbs contains 10 lessons of wisdom, followed by a dramatic conclusion. This blog post will examine the final part that conclusion, Proverbs chapter 9, where again we have Wisdom and Folly personified as women. Thus far, Solomon has drawn out the differences between “Lady Wisdom” and “Dame Folly.” However, you’ll notice in
