It’s the crack of dawn (4:30am) on Sunday morning and I am making some final preparations to speak with our church this morning about Jesus. I usually write a manuscript that I review over and over for Sunday morning, but I am feeling the need to abandon my script this morning to share straight from my heart/gut about an idea that is simple and somewhat understood. People assume that the pastor believes in Jesus, but today I want to take a moment to really look people in the eyes and let them know that I BELIEVE.
I really do believe in Jesus. I am a born skeptic of frauds and phonies, but I really do believe what the Bible says about Him. Virgin Birth. Crazy miracles. Public execution. Resurrection.
I believe it all.

Crazy about Jesus here, too–and will be preaching Jesus in just a couple of hours myself. Always encouraging to be praying for other pastors as I minister. May the Spirit sing powerfully through you today!
dude wish i could be there to hear you bring it…
Wow Pastor Shaun/Awesome Word on today…Enjoyed the Worship Experience on today. Yes, it was my first time to attend your service and I must say that it was such a wonderful and cutting edge experience. From the moment I arrived at the front door of Courageous to the moment I left to try to make it back to my car, the people and atmosphere was so refreshing. Please don’t allow this spirit of God to stop being conveyed by your servant leaders. This is what the people of God is missing, people that are willing to do something different and don’t matter who may see them doing it. Congrads/ I look forward to speaking with U about what took me so long getting to the Courageous Church and the reason I believe that I will be returning.
