Let it Be Christmas
Posted on 19. Dec, 2011 by frank.
The recent series we’ve just finished here at Hope Summit has been great! I’m so thankful for our dedicated volunteers that have sacrificed extra time in preparation and serving. Each week the team prepared a different Beatles song and I tied the lyric into our life and the events surrounding the birth of Jesus. Often our culture is willing [...]

Posted on 14. Nov, 2011 by frank.
A few weeks ago we started a new series of teachings at Hope Summit called I Am Second. A while back, Norm Miller started a website where people share their story and quite a few people have shared their experience with God.

Prayer is an essential part of the Christian life. I think many Christians struggle with prayer and fail to merge the prayers on thier knees with the life that they live. What we need to do is make prayer a part of our lifestyle instead of something nice we do once in a while. When [...]

Posted on 24. Sep, 2009 by frank.
I was recently discussing the importance of baptism at our Starting Point class and I find it hard to understand why some choose to live in disobedience. Every time I get the privilege of participating in (or observing) a baptism service, I’m reminded of a few of Jesus’ last words before ascending in to heaven: [...]

Posted on 27. Jul, 2009 by frank.
Does God speak to you? I think he does, and I think he uses people around us more than we give the “Big Guy” credit for. We often look at the Bible as a method that our creator uses to communicate (it is certainly the best place for us to get a glimpse into the [...]

Are You A Productive Christian?
Posted on 12. May, 2009 by frank.
Do you ever wonder you are making a difference? If God is actually using you? Are you a productive follower of Jesus? One of my favorite verses in the Bible was a part of my devotional time today. We actually studied these verses in my Home Team just a few weeks ago. 1 Peter 1:5-8 [...]

Posted on 27. Jan, 2009 by frank.
I do my best to live Christ-like on a daily basis but this guy took it to a whole new level last year. Ed Dobson is the Vice President of Spiritual Formation at Cornerstone University and he decided to spend 2008 living like Jesus. LITERALLY… and I do mean just that! He read through the [...]

Faith And A TV Favorite
Posted on 26. Dec, 2008 by frank.
One of my favorite TV shows over the last year has been Heroes. I’ve always been a fan of the superhero genre ever since I read the early Superman comics that my dad kept from his childhood. I thought it was so cool that my dad kept that stuff and I was facinated by the [...]
