Presenting my paper at the
Stone-Campbell Journal Conference
Welcome!
A warm word of welcome to this website! I trust you will not only come to know me better, but will find the visit enriching and helpful for yourself.
The goal in my teaching ministry and as a pastor-scholar is that the congregation and students would study the Bible in both a devotional and scholarly manner.
In addition, I agree with Alexander Campbell, the founder of the movement of churches which I serve as a pastor, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), as he wrote,
"I have no idea of adding to the catalogue of new sects. I labor to see sectarianism abolished and all Christians of every name united upon the one foundation upon which the apostolic church was founded."

Dear Trinity family and friends,
"Even the very hairs of your head are all numbered"
Jesus, in Matthew 10:30 (NIV)
I heard about a young man who took his first ride in a balloon and circled the city of Pittsburgh. After he landed he said to his friend who was waiting,
"You wouldn't believe how small you looked to me up there."
His friend laughed and said,
"Well, when I looked at you in the balloon, you were just a tiny speck in the sky."
The work you do for the the Lord with Trinity is important and not a little thing or a tiny speck. Every time you bless someone or pray for people, it may seem small to you but it is big to God! God is not miles away from you in the clouds. As you grow in the Christ, He is in your heart, always with you and in you.
These actions are very significant to Him for His work in your church. They are magnified in importance in God's sight. Keep blessing and praying for the people of the congregation. Your small acts are large to the Lord!

7. THIS WEEK IN WORSHIP-Hebrews 12:1-3
There are apps that you can save your information like Dropbox and others and use them on any computer wherever you are. The are called clouds and your documents or videos are within the touch of your fingers. Some people say your information is in cyberspace, somewhere out there.
On Sunday morning will be talk about clouds, but these clouds are real and tangible. Hebrews 12:1 tells us that "we are surrounded by a cloud of witnesses." As we heard last week, Hebrews 11 recalled a list of people in the Bible who have gone before us and left a legacy of faith to live by and follow. We also personally know many people who planted seeds of faith and love into our lives. These folks fought the good fight of faith (2 Timothy 6:12)(are now in God's hands and as some say, cheering us in the grandstands of Heaven (cloud of witnesses).
In the past twenty years a lot has happened on this campus we call Trinity. From Bible studies, to worship, prayer for literally 1000's of people and children/youth events. You have a great history but an even greater future to live into with your church family. Be with us as we cheer you on and look to the Lord to persevere and move forward by faith top share the message of the gospel from this outpost on Braeburn Heights. Read Hebrews 12:1-3 to prepare for worship.
8. TUESDAY—MEN’S BIBLE STUDY

Join the men in fellowship and study, Tuesday evenings at 7pm. The group is beginning a new study with a book by Jerry Bridges titled Who Am I? Identity in Christ. If you would like to participate, contact Joe Page at 724-989-4168.
I’m looking forward to worship this weekend and the upcoming HOMECOMING next Thursday. See you there!
