Monday was an awesome night! Over 400 people gathered at the Rose Garden Center in Tyler to celebrate what GOD is doing through FCA.We had a great time in worship,recognition of Coach Fowler,being inspired by Neal Jeffrey and Case Keenum.
I really enjoyed seeing so many good friends!! Bill Krisher,an FCA legend, surprised me by making the trip from Dallas.I was happy to see Bethh Purl,a young coach who came all the way from McKinney!! How special….I saw God bring people together to support FCA…$30,000 worth!! Praise the Lord!
Heart of a Champion
March 2nd, 2010“Weekend of Champions”
February 21st, 2010We just finished the first of two W.O.C’s !! Over 500 kids ,coaches and staff gathered at SKY RAnch for a weekend of inspiration and perspiration!
It was a great time and God moved in the hearts and lives of all who attended. I appreciate the Dallas FCA staff opening this event to our east Texas schools and providing a way for them to experience this great event!! Thanks,Rick!!
God is in charge!
February 14th, 2010Game Day was this past saturday and it was quite a day! We had over 230 kids and coaches signed up to come but a late week snow storm hit east Texas AND that CHANGED EVERYTHING!!
We had 86 make it to the event.I was really “down” until I realized that I was not in charge.God had other plans….
After Melvin Adams,”Mr. Globetrotter”, shared his story and challenged them with the Gospel there were 8 decisions for Christ!! To God be the Glory! I am excited to see God working and I am really thankful that I am NOT in charge!!
Ring in the new year!
December 30th, 2009As I sit at the tire store waiting on new tires, I think about other new stuff!
I have a lot coming “new” for FCA in Northeast Texas…banquet on Mar.1, student events, camps…..stay tuned!!
My New Year’s plan is to read the Bible through in 2010.I am going to use the ESV study Bible plan…pray for me as I read and allow God to speak.
Hope your year gets off to a great start!! See ya…
The Purpose of Christmas
December 18th, 2009Rick Warren has written a great little book entitle THE PURPOSE OF CHRISTMAS.In that book he outlines the purpose…celebration!…salvation!!…and reconciliation!!!
As we move toward the celebration of Christ’s birth, let’s put this outline into practice!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Where do we go from here??
October 30th, 2009I am really thinking about and praying for God’s direction as we move forward with FCA. I am thinking about the style of ministry we implement at UT Tyler…..do we need to focus on teams,coaches and small groups? Pray!!!
