God is my source of comfort. That is a portion of a Truth statement I regularly say over my life. Here is the full version: God is my source of comfort. He comforts me in all my troubles. I am a comfort to others, using the same comfort God gives me. Truth statements have become essential spiritual…
Being determined isn’t enough, you also have to be diligent! A verse jumped out at me in the book of Ecclesiastes. Ecclesiastes is a fascinating book in the Bible. Here you have Solomon, who was the wisest and richest man in the Scriptures, and probably of all time. Solomon had it all and tried it a…
Meet the Maness Family! After being introduced as the next Senior Pastor of The Harbor in Friendswood, TX, this last Sunday, I figured we might have a couple of new followers or some people curiously checking us out online. My name is Jeff Maness! My wife is Sabrina. We have been married for 24 year…
Even in times of uncertainty, I will move ahead as I rest in God’s Sovereignty, rejoice for all He’s done, and refuse to ever give up. That is a Declaration of Truth I added to my life based on my final sermon this past Sunday at Element Church . Truth statements have become one of the key spiritual…

Here is a Declaration of Truth I say over my life: No matter what happens to me, or who goes with me, I can’t stop and I won’t stop following Jesus.

This Sunday, February 23rd, we are starting a brand new sermon series at Element Church called “Graverobber”. How many miracles do you think Jesus performed? Dozens? Hundreds? Thousands? John, one of the 12 disciples of Jesus, said that Jesus did so many things the whole world could not contain the…
How far are you willing to go to follow the Lord? Would you be ready to get naked? In public? For three years? That’s what Isaiah did, simply because God told him to. This sign in the picture here hangs in the master bathroom of our home. Getting naked in the privacy of my bathroom is no big deal, r…
Vision is a powerful thing, and I’m not talking about our eyesight. I’m talking about the ability to cast a clear and compelling vision. The kind that people will follow, sacrifice for and be generous towards. When done right, a vision has the potential to unite a group of people who otherwise would…
