		<title>It&#8217;s Been A While</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yep, it&#8217;s been a long time since I last blogged. Why? Well, I&#8217;m not a good writer and I&#8217;ve been busy and I&#8217;ve tried to take a break. But, it&#8217;s time to get back on the horse and share what God is doing in my life. So here goes!

It&#8217;s been a great summer.
God has been blessing our church.
We are continue to see growth &#8211; numerically &#38; spiritually!
We bought a 13,000 sq. ft. building a couple of months ago, and now we are selling it to the state of Kansas.
It&#8217;s all ...]]></description>

That&#8217;s a bold statement, but that&#8217;s what God has laid on my heart.

		<title>Looking Ahead @ RiverPoint</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here are a few things to look forward to at RiverPoint Church!
1. CONFESSIONS &#124; Continues this weekend
Last weekend Tim Beougher preached a message that I think we all needed to hear. We all struggle with trusting God in many areas of our life, but that&#8217;s not where God wants us to be. This weekend Steve Cooper will be preaching a message that you won&#8217;t want to miss. In case you miss any of our messages, you can listen online here.
2. Summer Giving @ RiverPoint Church

		<title>Important Stuff At RiverPoint</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s some stuff that every RiverPoint attender should know. Enjoy!
1) TURN YOUR CELL PHONE OFF &#8211; If you have a cell phone and you bring it to one of our weekend worship experiences, I would like to ask you to please TURN OFF your phone during worship.

2) ADOPT A SOLDIER &#8211; This weekend at RiverPont Church. If you have an immediate family member serving in the armed forces state-side or overseas, ...]]></description>

		<title>Thursday Mind Dump</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
My heart breaks for married couples who decide to give up! &#8220;Marriages that work take work. The grass isn&#8217;t greener on the other side of the fence. It&#8217;s greener wherever you water it!&#8221; &#8211; Rick Warren
I can&#8217;t stand it when I see children and students talk smack toward their parents! Kids &#38; Students&#8230;honor and respect your parents, grandparents and elders! This backs that up!
It&#8217;s NOT OK to show up to church late! You wouldn&#8217;t dare show up to work late, or show up to a wedding late, or show up to ...]]></description>

This weekend at RiverPoint we finished our series on Elijah! WOW!
This series was one of the best we&#8217;ve ever done and it rocked my world.
In case you missed it, you can CLICK HERE to listen to the podcasts.
The last message was about depression. During the talk I gave 4 steps to get depressed.
1. Wear Yourself Out
2. Shut People Out
3. Focus On The Negative
4. Forget God
I also gave God&#8217;s prescription for our depression that we see in the life of Elijah.
1. God Says It&#8217;s Time For R&#38;R &#8211; 1 Kings 19:5-8
