The Power of Prepare

A few years ago, we were on a road trip as a family. We were going camping and so our destination was in the middle of nowhere. My wife turned to me countless times and begged me to ask for directions, but I would just reassure her that I knew exactly where we were. A couple hours later one of my kids said something along the lines of: “We saw that rock earlier, Daddy.” And that’s when I knew that…

Faith for the Future

Here at Milestone, we believe the next generation has the potential to change the world. So many of them feel the pressure to have it all figured out, but when they are put in an environment that encourages young people to follow God’s call on their lives one step at a time, the results are radical.

Discovering the Power of Palm Sunday – Part 2

In Part 1, we looked at Matthew 21 and the significance of the first two parts of the story.

4 Keys to Finding Peace in Uncertain Times

Any time some sort of crisis happens, why is our first instinct to head to the grocery store? It’s because we want to be prepared—to be equipped.

What Single Moms and Widows Need to Hear

My grandmother was a tough lady. She could cook dinner, perm her hair, sew a dress, and fix a carburetor all at the same time. But, the strongest thing she ever did was raise two boys all on her own. You see, my grandmother was a single mom. I watched her do everything she could to provide for her family. So, I know it’s hard, not just because I am a pastor, but because I grew up with it. And…

The Cost of Freedom

Freedom is a powerful thing, but it is never free–it always comes with a price. I want to take a moment today to honor the brave men and women who have served our country to protect our freedom. Joe and Melissa’s story is just one example of how much our veteran’s sacrifice and is a great reminder of an even deeper freedom that comes when you find spiritual family. When we partner with Jesus to build His Church and serve…
