This past Sunday literally brought me and many others to tears. Each service we saw people coming to experience God through baptism. I saw a daughter come forward and then turn to see her mother behind her. After she was baptized, she baptized her Mom. I saw a Dad in tears as he lifted his son into the water and baptized him. I saw a wife crying and shaking with joy as the husband she loves and has prayed for was baptized. A wonderful woman who told me she always felt something was missing, let me know that now she is filled and overflowing with the love of God.
The night ended with a man with special needs going into the water. The look on his face was angelic. I know the Angels were rejoicing. A total of 202 people came forward to be baptized.
For me personally, I got the blessing of sharing the last service with Liam…

In my quiet time, I read about the 5 Crowns of Honor and Blessing that God bestows on us. While it is not necessarily a goal for us to strive after all five, it is wonderful to think that God blesses us with things such as these. So, I am on a quest for all five crowns…
Grey Hair: Prov. 16:31. Interestingly, so much of our society dreads this. I see that God wants me to embrace it.
Grandchildren: Prov. 17:6. I love the blessing of children in my life. The more the better. They give me energy, vitality and joy. They remind me of what is important. They cause me to love more and more. I am blessed with four Grandchildren and three God-children.
Good wife: Prov. 12:4. I have the best wife ever. She is truly a blessing and a gift from God.
Wisdom: Prov. 4:9. I have not yet attained to what God desires of me in this area. Yet, He tells me that if I seek after her, I will find her.
Riches: Prov. 14:24. I am not there yet, but with the wisdom from God (especially found in Proverbs) and the help of Dave Ramsey, I hope to be. However, God has blessed Pam and I; we are content. We actually are amazed at His blessing in our lives.

When I think of what Crossroads is, I think of the beautiful women we have in our church. It’s a beauty that shines from a relationship with God. Here are two incredibly beautiful women. Natalya is a true woman of God who loves people in a way that is contagious. Natalya was drawn to another real beauty; my granddaughter, Elllani. Ellani oozes joy! She changes a room with coos and smiles … she is truly a work and wonder of God. This is what Crossroads is…..

This Summer, I had the joy of preaching in two of the most amazing churches in the country: Central Christian Church in Las Vegas Nevada and Crossroads Christian Church in the Dallas area. Both are led by visionary, Godly men. Barry Cameron (Crossroads, Texas) is one of the most focused and directed men I know. Judd Whilhite (Vegas) is one of the most caring and creative pastors I have ever met.
What I discovered is that we are all different and yet we are all doing amazing things for the Kingdom of God in our own unique ways. I love that just as God made each of us to be individuals, His Churches are very unique as well. We do hold to the same essentials, but we express them in different ways.
That brought such joy to Pam and I as we visited these churches. Thank you Lord for the uniqueness we get to experience as You lead and guide us.

When I think of what Crossroads is, I think of Taylor. She made all of these cards to be given to children in Kenya. When our team delivered them, they became instant treasures. Taylor truly touched the children’s hearts. She gave them love and hope.

Last Sunday, we had one of the winners from the Food Network’s Cup Cake Wars here at church selling cupcakes. They were supposed to be here for three hours but sold out in less than 20 minutes! They sold over 1,000 cupcakes in less than 20 minutes!
They loved being with us so much, that they asked to come back this Sunday. So, they will be here ready to sell their award winning cupcakes after each service. If you want to avoid the line, you can pre -order them by going to www.suite106cupcakery.com. This is the best and fastest way to get your cupcakes.
Now matter what, you have to try at least one. They are so good!
Invite your friends to come and be a part of this great day!
