GIRLS RULE!

Written by admin on . Posted in basketball, Kerri, sports. 1 Comment on GIRLS RULE!

I’ve been coaching my little 10 year old girl’s basketball team, and last night we had our first game. It was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much fun. We did win the game 38 to 3, but the fun part was seeing girls who had never ever played the game run up and down the court and play with confidence. You can see on their faces this desire to do their best, even though there are five opposing players trying to stop them.

I told the girls that if you practice hard, then the games are fun. And if you don’t practice hard, then the games are difficult. Such is true in all of life. To work and practice hard is the real battle of life.

I’m praying for each of you today that your family, company, or your 10 year old girl’s basketball team will give it their all and enjoy the fruits and benefits of their labor.

NOTE: On January 21, our team will be playing during half time of the Cal State Northridge Men’s basketball game at 2:00 pm at the Matadome.

Jesus Said….

Jesus said in Matthew 25:40, “I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.”

Wow!!! This tells me that Jesus is fully aware of all the little things we do for people who cannot help themselves, and that as we live, move, and go about our daily tasks, we should be on the lookout for folks who need a helping hand. As we meet the needs of the down and out, we are literally, actually, and distinctly helping Jesus.

Did you catch that???

We have daily opportunities to help serve Jesus. If you saw Jesus with His arms full, and He needed help with opening a door, wouldn’t you quickly race to hold the door open for Him??? Then shouldn’t we do that for the elderly person who is gingerly walking through an otherwise awkward or heavy door?

If you saw Jesus looking for somewhere to throw away a used paper cup, wouldn’t your heart leap for the chance to take that cup to the trash for him? Then it seems we should eagerly do the same for someone else.

I think that each of us needs to look around for a chance to serve Jesus today.

Who can we find that needs our help today? A child, a teammate, a fellow employee, a person standing on the street corner begging for a few leftover coins? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm… I think if you would just look around, you would see folks who need help all around you. And ultimately, the greatest gift you could EVER give Jesus, besides your own life, is to introduce Him to those around you who are desperate for salvation and eternity.

We get to serve Jesus by helping others, and the best way to help someone is to help them find Jesus. This sounds like a win, win, win situation. Jesus wins, you win, and the person we help wins. I need to finish this entry so I can get started.

How about helping the “least of these” today and then posting here exactly what you did……

INTRODUCTION to 2007

Written by admin on . Posted in direction, dream, goals, theme for the year. No Comments on INTRODUCTION to 2007


This coming Sunday at Shepherd of the Hills Church promises to be exciting, as I will be sharing the plans and direction for the year of 2007.

Last year, our theme was “House of Prayer” and this coming year will be life changing for those who attend and apply the word of God to their lives.

I know that some of you doubt that your life can change, but I’m here to tell you that CHANGE is around the corner. God specializes in changing hearts and homes of those who are simply willing.

Will YOU please join me this weekend in one of our many services and ask God to speak to your heart as you enter to worship and hear the dreams and goals that the Lord has in store for his flock here at Shepherd?

You don’t want to miss this weekend!!! I’ll see you with your bible, your smile, and your visitor in just a few hours. http://www.mywestsidechurch.com/
