Pastor Nathan LaGrange is the Worship Leader at Lakeview Church, and he’s also the former college-age pastor. He’s also an all-around around awesome guy, and the pastor who married my wife and me almost two years ago! I guess if I had to play a hypothetical “favorite pastor” game (not that I would generally recommend […]

A few days ago (although I’ve just now had time to discover and read about it), Nick Nicholaou, and Steve Hewitt of Christian Computing Magazine, announced that they are starting a Ministry IT Certification! You’ve probably already heard about it from Jason Powell, but this looks like it could be pretty exciting! I’m looking forward […]

We have a couple visiting from the Netherlands (from the church our choir on tour helped plant in an indirect way, over two missions trips) on vacation for a month (vacations in Europe make me a bit jealous :-) The husband’s name is Jeroen (pronounced something like “jerOOn”) and he has a web development and […]

The bigger test of the Indiana District Council […]

Today (Tue) I drove up to Granger, IN with my family to hang out with Jason Powell, Ed Buford, and Kyle Sagarsee at Granger Community Church for the afternoon! We had a blast, I learned a ton of stuff and got to see their digs first hand. Jason and the gang are one of the […]

I’m contracted out to another office one day a week to work on their computers like I do at Lakeview. Usually I’m there on Thursdays, but this week it was today, Wednesday. As an IT guy, I’m used to hearing from people when things don’t work. I’ll get compliments on how well I’m doing after […]
