Hubby, daddy, and serving as the pastor of Plymouth Park Baptist and chaplain of Irving Police Dept., everyday evangelist, and relentless encourager of pastors.
To the pastor who made countless visits, numerous counseling sessions, and agreed to do their weddings, funerals, and preached to them faithfully week in and week out, only to have 'em ghost you and go elsewhere... Good job. Seriously, good job.
Back at the Ag Barn, this time with L and K because we thought A and G had other plans. Here’s hoping K’s team can handle the powerhouse Athletics. 🤪

We’ll stumble and fall, but! WE HAVE AN ADVOCATE! Jesus! youtu.be/t-l4TvMh16o?si…
The coffee is almost ready and it’s almost time to gather with the saints called Plymouth Park Baptist Church. Can’t wait to worship with our church family on the Lord’s Day!

Pastor, you’re not performing — you’re proclaiming Him. Lift Him up tomorrow, and He’ll draw people to Himself.
These two are dogsitting for a family from church, so I surprised them (scared the snot out of them) and invited them to a double Saturdaddy-Daughter Date at Tupelo Honey.




The Baptist prof guy turned Anglican is a prime example of dumb Twitter controversies that truly DO NOT MATTER. Meanwhile, real leaders and pastors are loving people, praying, studying, and laboring for the gospel. I’m here for those dudes — not the pseudo-ministry nonsense.
My thoughts on the recent news of a well-known theologian leaving the SBC: tinyurl.com/2vzws72t

Every pastor should be learning from an older pastor and investing in a younger pastor. So many issues with pastors would be helped if this was embraced.
Let’s be known by our love for one another (John 13:35) as we reach a world that desperately needs Him.
The AAAAstros sweep the DBacks in the desert to take sole possession of the best record in the American League. Their lead in the division is 6.
We’re thankful for the privilege of serving @CleanupUSA1 for a bit. They do incredible work around DFW like providing showers, haircuts, and more for homeless, widows, orphans, etc, and needed a spot for part of their fleet. Find out more about them at cleanupusa.org

I should've bought stock in these––every week, PPBC takes anywhere from 100 to 300 of 'em to give to neighbors, co-workers, family members, and friends: amzn.to/4kQDaas
Culture. Only thing that makes this craziness make sense.
5 of 9 hitters who were on the Astros Opening Day lineup are on the IL right now, yet they’ve won three straight and have the second-best record in the AL.
Pastors are not appointed to a church primarily to lead in the instruction of skills and the dissemination of information; they are appointed to a church primarily to lead in Christ-following.
Ever notice that some people on social media—the ones who know the least—often know it the loudest. . . .?
The cross and empty tomb prove God’s power to redeem and restore. (1 Cor. 15:17)
One day, I'll stand before King Jesus. On that day, I won't give an account for how the Pastor across town led his church, but I'll dang sure answer for how I led the one that He blessed me to serve. For that reason, I stay in my lane, head down, hand to the plow.
