Joseph: Being Prepared
It seemed appropriate to me as I was putting this series together to preach this Sunday on being prepared since it is the day after the amazing BBC Holiday Fair. The preparation and the work that goes on for months and culminates this past week when many people move into…
Joseph: Personal Integrity
For the last two months we have been on a journey through the book of Genesis learning lessons for leading our lives as Christians. For the final three weeks of this series we will be looking at the life of Joseph. Joseph was his father Jacob’s favorite son, because he…
Jacob & Esau: Generosity of Spirit
I believe one of the qualities that mature Christians and good leaders display and encourage in others is generosity of spirit. Generosity of spirit includes graciousness, large-heartedness, forgiveness, and an awareness of and a concern for others. The opposite of generosity of spirit is a resentful, vindictive, selfish, harsh, unforgiving,…
Jacob and Laban: Honesty
When you were growing up did you ever hear, “Honesty is the best policy.” How many people believe that? How many people practice that? All the time without exception? Honestly? How much is honesty practiced in our lives and in our country? A lack of honesty hurts everyone; it undermines…
Stewards of Grace
Well, it’s mid October and I don’t know about you all, but I’m already thinking about Christmas. I’m so excited because this is the first year our 18mo granddaughter will be with us for Christmas. As I started Christmas shopping, I’ve so much fun looking at toddler toys, and Disney…

Noah: Walking with God
My grandfather, Pastor Victor Scalise, always told my dad that people don’t know what a pastor does so you need to educate the congregation about what you’re doing. Here are the highlights of some of the events and work I’ve been involved in from Saturday, September 10th through Saturday the…
Cain and Abel: Non-Violence
Everyone here is well aware of what happened ten years ago. The stories and images have filled the media all week and the feelings and thoughts many of us had a decade ago may have come back to some of us in one degree and one form or another in…
Adam and Eve: Resisting Temptation
For the next two and half months I will be preaching and leading a Wednesday evening Bible study on Leadership in Critical Times. Some people hear the word “leadership” and think of very powerful well-known people like presidents and prime ministers, senators and representatives, CEO’s, and other influential people. The…
Small Beginnings Can Yield Amazing Results
Hurricane Irene which is arriving today is just one of many examples of how small beginnings can yield amazing results. All the clouds and wind and rain started small a while ago, but grew tremendously and quickly. A hurricane can develop in a matter of days; most things in life…
Getting Ready for the Wedding
Although it seems hard to imagine given the political and economic turmoil around the globe and the many places where hunger, war and violence are part of daily life, if you were to research what was one of the biggest news stories of 2011 in terms of coverage, it was….the…
