As we have worked through our three-week series, SIMPLIFY, the response has been possibly the strongest we have ever had over our five years. Folks have been emailing and stopping to talk about their lives. We ALL feel overwhelmed and overworked. Too much of everything. Stuff. Bills. Commitments. Family. At times we don’t know how to [...]

Yesterday we began our new series, SIMPLIFY. I asked our body, What is truly important to you? It’s an easy question. In an instant we know our true priorities. Family. Kids. The Lord. Husband or wife. Grandchildren. It’s always a short list. Always. And yet we find ourselves at times focusing on everything besides what’s [...]

One day this week I jumped back into the Jeep after filling up at the Shell station. As I drove away I noticed the gas needle pointing to FULL. A full tank of gas. $28.00. My heart sprang up, YOU ARE BLESSED, JOHNNY BRAGG! My daily needs are met. My kids are happy and healthy. [...]

As we have been working through our series LOL, several have wondered Why do we even have emotions? Why do we have to live with the ups and downs of our feelings. Crying in movies. Laughing at inappropriate times. Feeling angry at others. Whether we are wired to show our emotions easily or we keep [...]

Let me ask you a couple questions: When you think about your days ahead, how do you feel? What comes to mind when you look at tomorrow, the coming months and year? I know, not easy. Most of us have big, fat question marks about the future. We don’t know what’s next, what tomorrow holds, [...]

Funny thing about us. We can’t remember what we ate for breakfast this morning. We can’t remember where we sat the remote. We can’t find our car when we walk out of Wal-Mart. But we are all good at remembering our past sins, stumbles, and rough patches. We are excellent at recalling what others have [...]

As we conclude our series on Falling Into Your Calling, I want to talk with you about that gal or guy in the mirror, yourself. So many of us float through life a bit confused at what we are supposed to be doing…what direction our lives are supposed to take. What next? What job? What [...]

The Apostle Paul urges us to live a life worthy of the calling we have received, Ephesians 4:1, which great and all that…but what if you have no idea of what your calling is? Who are you supposed to be? What has the Lord specifically called you to do? Not easy questions, but I believe [...]

Over the previous few weeks we’ve been working through our Wipeout series, focusing on the enemy’s schemes to knock us out of the race. We’ve talked of how dangerous church life can be, and you may be feeling the need to protect yourself in the days ahead. You may be feeling a bit more vulnerable, [...]

We’ve all been there. Going about our lives when the sudden, out-of-nowhere moment of sin hits. It may not be a big drunken-rampage mug-shot moment. Instead, for most of us that walk with the Lord, our sin moments are more subtle. Doubt. Anger. Gossip. Impatience. Slander. And even though these types of stumbles are more [...]
