On Tuesday, I lost one of my dearest friends. There is no way that I can express how much Kerry has meant to my life and I’m still in total shock. Kerry gave me my first job out of college back in 1996 and just a few months ago went absolutely out of his way to make sure that our family had the best experience we possibly could on our spring break vacation to St. Louis. In between I would just simply say that he was a good friend who made me laugh, made me think, encouraged me to be more involved in preaching, teaching, and writing, and who supported me in almost every way imaginable. You will be missed my friend!

What Does it Really Mean to Have Faith in Jesus Christ? (Romans 3:19-26) – Audio recording of my Sunday morning sermon at Bellevue Church of Christ in Nashville, TN on July 7, 2013.
The lesson came from Romans 3:19-26, and looked at two of the most fundamental questions in Christianity:
(1) Why did Jesus have to die?
(2) What does it REALLY mean to have faith in Jesus?
Romans 3:21-26 (ESV)
21 But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it— 22 the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction: 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 25 whom God put forward as a propitiation by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God’s righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins. 26 It was to show his righteousness at the present time, so that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.

The Equation of Life (Ecclesiastes 9:11-12) – Audio recording of my Sunday evening sermon at Bellevue Church of Christ in Nashville, TN on June 26, 2013.
Life doesn’t fit into an equation, and is full of injustices and things that just don’t seem to make sense. This study looks at ways in which we can be ready to deal with the unexpected and unfair things that are a part of life under the sun.
Ecclesiastes 9:11-12 (ESV)
11 Again I saw that under the sun the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to the intelligent, nor favor to those with knowledge, but time and chance happen to them all. 12 For man does not know his time. Like fish that are taken in an evil net, and like birds that are caught in a snare, so the children of man are snared at an evil time, when it suddenly falls upon them.
On Sunday, I will be preaching at Bellevue Church of Christ during our morning worship service that begins at 9am. The lesson will come from Romans 3:19-26, and will look at two of the most fundamental questions in Christianity:
(1) Why did Jesus have to die?
(2) What does it REALLY mean to have faith in Jesus?
