Waking Up
Several times this week I’ve received emails from you sharing meditations/articles that you’ve read that depict others’ being fully aware of the presence of God. I hope you realize that your recognition of these things shows your own awareness ...
Ordinary
“The Lord must have loved ordinary people because he made so many of us.”
-Rev. Bob Richards
Jimmy Valvano, former coach of NC State, heard the above comment when he was 16 years old, and it inspired him to action!
“Every single day, in ...
How do you wake up?
Jesus was clear.
“You must become like a little child.”
There’s something about children.
They “get it” in ways that evade us.
The best friends of Jesus were enamored with his words about the kingdom of heaven.
What was it like?
What ...
Experiencing “The Moment”
Happy Friday!
Can you recall "THE MOMENT" t when you realized, “This is it!”
“This is the person I want to spend the rest of my life with!”
“This person is going to be a lifelong friend.”

Don’t Chicken Out with the Excuse of a Snowstorm
I was in labor with my firstborn when I took my first ministry position.
Literally.
The chair of the Staff Parish Relations Committee called my cellphone (back then, something slightly smaller than a carry-on suitcase). I was lying in a ...
Dragging up the anchor . . .

So . . . we were stuck.
Did we have options???
Yes, but none were exactly ...

We were having such a ...
Walmart Trips
I really just wanted to get to the office. I’d been up since 5, and at 6:45 was excited to be pulling onto State Park Rd. I’d beat the traffic and surely be able to get a lot of things done. My to do list for work was pretty big.
At the end of ...
Making Your Mark
Happy Friday!

Are you an influencer?

Something to Think About
Happy Friday!
So . . . Sunday is Mother’s Day.
And as we approach it, I invite us to ponder it for just a few minutes.
I wrestle with highlighting that holiday in the church for so many reasons.
Not everyone has or had an “amazing mom,” ...
It is a lot to think about . . .
Happy Friday!
First, I want to thank you for being a part of West.
If it weren’t for you, there would be no West, so thank you for all you bring to the community!
One of our core values at West is “infinitely changing.”
That does not mean ...
