This weekend at Element Church we are starting a new sermon series called “Confessions of a Pastor: Coming clean about who I am.” Pastors can sometimes be viewed as “spiritual rock stars” who have it all figured out. Surely they don’t share the same questions, doubts or struggles that everyone else…
Just because someone has been forgiven does not mean the relationship is completely restored. I think there is a great mis-understanding about this in the church and recently I’ve seen it rise to the surface again. Where I’ve seen it is in the removal of a pastor from a prominent church. Last year,…
“Wasn’t worship amazing? It seemed like everyone’s hands were in the air and everyone was singing their guts out.” I’ve said something like that about a worship service before, and if you’re a pastor, so have you. Or you’ve said the opposite, “Man, hardly anyone was singing today.” Or, “Hardly anyon…

This past Sunday at Element Church we continued our sermon series called “CON-Tentment: The lie about having more.” No matter how much we say it or how much we believe it, more is never the answer for enough.

Remember the old Gatorade commercial starring Michael Jordan? It had the jingle, “Like Mike, I wanna be like Mike.” Well, I think it’s time to change the jingle to “Like Steph, I wanna be like Steph.” Steph Curry has recently made headlines again, not for his video game like play on the court, but h…

This last Sunday at Element Church we started a brand new series called “CON-Tentment: The lie about having more.” So often in our lives we say things like, “If I just had that or if I just had more, then I’d have enough. Then I’d be content.” But more is never the answer to enough, because there’s…
Spelling matters! I know some people are getting really excited right now because you are the ones who believe it is your life mission to find spelling and grammatical errors wherever you are. But I’m not talking about errors in a presentation, I’m talking about errors in our belief system when it c…
Today we celebrate and commemorate the life and impact that Martin Luther King Jr. had on our nation and around the world. While the day is officially set to mark Dr. King’s birthday, it is really more about honoring the progress he helped bring into racial equality and the inspiration he gave to so…
One of our Core Values here at Element Church is: “It Matters: That no matter what you do in the church, it matters just the same for the church.” We believe that. That the person in the pulpit is no more valuable than the volunteer in the parking lot. Every position in the church matters just the s…
