Last night, I visited at Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship in Dallas, TX. Now, let's be real. You cannot live in the DFW area and not visit Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship and the Potter's House. Dr. Tony Evans and Bishop T.D. Jakes are renown for their in-depth study and teaching of the Bible. So, on with the high heels and off to the next stop - Oak Cliff. The speaker was also a draw for me to attend this

My journey continues with a visit to Grace Vineyard in Arlington, TX. I sought a Vineyard church out on the suggestion of my sister. During a recent visit to Boston, I had attended a Vineyard church with her and enjoyed the fellowship. I was pleasantly surprised that Arlington had a Vineyard church and headed out with my high heels on.My first encounter was with a man named Mark. (There were

I apologize for the late post. I didn't make it to the church I wanted to visit last Sunday. No, I wasn't playing "hooky"; I was blinded. Literally. My contacts tore as I was driving to the church. Talk about instant blindness and pain! Luckily, I made it safely to the eye doctor before the day was through. What a relief to be able to see again!The entire event left me with several thoughts. My

Have you ever watched a blockbuster movie at church? This weekend, I attended church online at LifeChurchTV. Church online is not necessarily new. Churches have been streaming services online for sometime. What is new and out-of-the-box is how LifeChurchTV has evolved and reinvented the online church experience. From chat rooms for ongoing discussion during worship, to LifeGroups to join, to

Today I visited First Baptist Church in Euless, TX. I had watched a television program last week and saw an interview of a deaf pastor. Yes, you heard me. Pastor John Meador is deaf and he's a pastor. In the interview, he was asked how it was he came to become a pastor. His reply was riveting. He said, "I asked God how I could preach when I couldn't hear the people. God said that I didn't need to

You don't know me yet. I'm a stranger. I'm no stranger to God, but I'm the stranger in your church. I like the front pew most of the time, but sometimes I sit in the back because I'm new. Being new can be hard. New is different. New state, new city, new home and new life. Meeting new people can be hard on you, too. I know. I've sat where you are. Comfortable. Connected. Content. It takes some
