New Life,
I want to wish you and your family a merry Christmas. Jana and I love you and are honored to be your pastors.

I made this video for families to enjoy on Christmas morning.  It is a prayer for you and your family. (With a very fun ending)   I want to encourage you to watch this together as a family or find a quiet moment to watch it yourself.

Tonight will be awesome!  Make sure you arrive early. You don’t want to miss the opening.  See you in a few hours. Service times are….3:30, 5, 6:30 or 10:00 PM.

People are facing serious heartache and need a Savior. We are [...] Read more

I read this story today at church. Many people have requested it.  Powerful story from Dr. Anthony Campolo, speaker, author, sociologist, pastor, and passionate follower of Jesus! Pastor Troy __________ A few years ago Tony flew to Hawaii to speak at a conference. The way he tells it, he checks into his hotel and tries [...] Read more

Every organization, church and family has what I call an “Operating System”. An OS determines how decisions are made, priorities are defined and programs are designed. We all have underlying assumptions that manage our leadership or personal hardware. I am convinced that many  churches are trying to do ministry with a “Macintosh Plus” in a [...] Read more
