Last night at Englewood Baptist Church, I felt a familiar feeling. This is a feeling, a sensation that I have felt in the past. It is an air of expectation, waiting for the powerful hand of the Lord to sweep into a congregation and reveal things that are much bigger than they expect they can…
That’s right. Mission Jackson is an awesome ministry and I am thankful to be a part of it. The featured image for this post was taken at a cookout at one of our MJ leader’s home last evening. It was great to gather with ministry friends to relax and catch up on life a bit….
This mornings Bible study at Englewood Baptist Church was awesome! Nearly every Thursday morning, a group of diverse Christian men gather from all over West Tennessee to study God’s Word.

Just a couple of weeks ago, I was blessed to help work on the 2014 VBS hosted by Englewood Baptist Church. I have worked with VBS efforts and back yard Bible studies many times over the years. This time it was different because I specifically helped to get many of our Mission Jackson kids to…
