I can’t wait to see the response we get with all our monkeying around! It’s gonna be awesome!!!!

Epic Church has a New Facility!!

epic — Thu, 18 Feb 2010 18:54:52 +0000

Starting February 28th at 10:30am, Epic Church will be meeting at our new facility Coleman Middle School in Wichita!!! We are so stoked about this move! It means we get to move our service back to 10:30am (sleep is good!), we are able to hang out afterwards and get to know each other, and we get the chance to reach out to a whole new area of town!

Be sure to join us this weekend for our last service at the Warren and then again on the 28th for our first rockin’ service at Coleman!

See ya there!

We Need Your Prayer NOW!

epic — Wed, 27 Jan 2010 20:41:07 +0000

Hey everyone, I would like to call on you to pray! I just received an email from the Warren Theatre that in 3 weeks we will no longer be able to meet in their facility. Before I go on, please do not say or do mean things to or about the Warren Theatres – they have been kind in letting us rent this long. They are not a facility that is designed to hold church, their business is to make money. We need to take the high road and respond with love.

Anyway. This, as you can imagine, puts us in a bit of a bind. We need to begin praying ASAP for God to open up a facility for us to use. I would like to ask you to also repost this note for others to pray for us. We need to raise up and seek God and his Guidance. The church is NOT a building! The Church is the people and we will not loose heart over bricks and mortar.

So, will you join with me in prayer?

The Wind at Your Back

epic — Sat, 16 Jan 2010 15:48:10 +0000

Maybe, I struggle with this more than most… But lately I have learned the necessity of trusting in the underlying current of God than the overt strategic strength of Kent. I have learned that it’s better to pray than to postulate, it’s better to trust than to determine trajectory. The thing in this life that is the least tangible (the personage of God) is the thing that is more real than anything else we know. He is heftier, weightier, loftier and more sound. He is complete and unified, the one true and only God – and He is less interested in our scheming than He is in our hearts, souls and strength.

Strategy is not bad, intention is not malign, but both by themselves are only a poor shadow of what can be had when the wind of the almighty is blowing in your sails. That is what I pray for, the power of the wind to be at our back!

Did U Miss Vision Week at Epic?

The first weekend of January I shared with the church our vision for 2010. In 2009 we started a church you could take your friends to. In 2010 We want to take the church to our friends!

One Place to Save Some $$

epic — Thu, 14 Jan 2010 15:42:40 +0000

So, today I wanted to share with you a website that will save you dollars when purchasing eye glasses. I learned this from Jason M. and it is a great tip that will save you hundreds of dollars! All you do is get your prescription from your eye doctor, visit www.ZenniOptical.com, choose your frames and put in the information for your lenses and you have the cheapest pair of glasses you have ever bought. A complete pair of glasses can be bought for as low as $8! I personally bought two pairs from this website and love them!

If you have a great way to save some money, let me know and I’ll share it for everyone else to read!

Money, Money, Money…

epic — Wed, 13 Jan 2010 15:40:33 +0000

Last week at Epic we talked about being intentional with your money. I gave real practical tips on how you can pay off your debt using the same system Jenni and I used to pay off our debt (you can listen to the message by clicking here). I also mentioned a couple of resources in that sermon, the first is a bible study reading guide called 30 Days to Knowing Jesus. The other is a budgeting resource to help you and your family get your finances under control.
I hope this helps you, if you can think of questions you might have or any other resources that will be helpful for you we would love to try and make those available to you!

Toothpicks for My Eyes

epic — Fri, 08 Jan 2010 07:58:06 +0000

It’s nearly 2am and I am wishing I had toothpicks to prop my eyes open. My caffeine is starting to wear off. I have been working on my sermon for Sunday. All I keep thinking as I study is that Jesus did not come for us to commit part way. He came for us to commit completely to following Him and learning from Him.

There are so many distractions in this world, so many things that make you weary, so many things that steal your joy. It’s easy to allow the desires that war inside of us to rule our hearts rather than the peace and contentment of Christ. Jesus came to set us free, Jesus came to bring peace to the broken, freedom to the prisoners.

Get out the toothpicks! I’m fixing my eyes on the author and perfecter of my faith!

(I hope that makes sense – you shouldn’t write stuff at 2am)
