Hunting Tiger Woods...

by C.J. Mahaney 12/3/2009

Tiger Woods wants his privacy back.

He wants the media entourage to disappear from his life.

He wants to be left alone so he can manage his personal problems in private.

Not a chance.

The story began unfolding in the early hours of last Friday when he crashed his Cadillac Escalade into a tree and a fire hydrant near his Florida home. He refused to speak with the police about the incident, raising curiosity about the circumstances. The story has now escalated into a… Continue

PhD of Family Ministry at Southern Seminary...

I have started my pursuit of a PhD in Family Ministry at Southern Seminary. This program works really well for those who serve in an area and can't relocate to a seminary city. I believe there are 14 candidates for this current program.

I have been very impressed with the scope and sequence of their studies. Obviously the work is intense but the opportunity to learn from men that are personally invested in and involved in family ministry is a great encouragement to me.

If you want more info on… Continue

Are Our Students This Bold???

During the spring of 2006, graduating senior Brittany McComb was chosen to give the valedictory speech at Foothill High School in Henderson, Nev., by virtue of achieving the highest GPA in the school. After composing her remarks, she submitted them to school administrators according to standard district policy. School administrators, with the advice of their district legal counsel, censored her speech, deleting all three Bible references, several references to “the Lord” and the only mention of… Continue

New Movie...

The movie-making church that filmed "Fireproof" and "Facing the Giants" announced its next release Sunday night -- "Courageous," a movie about fatherhood that the church hopes will convict men to rise up and be spiritual leaders of their children and families.

This is one I will recommend for sure.

Calling All Men...

Paul instructs us in Eph. 5:25 "Husbands, love your wives just as Christ loved the Church and gave himself up for her."

And as fathers in Eph. 6 Paul writes "Fathers, do not exasperate your children, instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord." -Ephesians 6:4

Those two verses clearly lay out the job assignment for us as dads and husbands. If we are going to give ourselves up and be a radically committed husband and dad, we need to have a teachable heart.

Many of you kn… Continue

Student Pastors In South Carolina...

Recently I had the opportunity to speak to a group of student pastors from SC. The event was hosted by the SC Baptist Convention. Steve Rohrlack gives leadership to this important ministry for the convention. He and his team were a joy to work with and they provided excellent leadership for this annual event.

There were 175 student pastors present which was by far the largest attendance they have ever had. I believe the attendance was a direct reflection on the passion of pastors to have a grea… Continue

Is the Era of Age Segmentation Over?

A researcher argues that the future of youth ministry will require bringing the generations together.
An Interview with Kara Powell | posted 9/18/2009

The statistics are grim. Rainer Research estimates that 70 percent of young people leave the church by age 22. Barna Group argues that the figure increases to 80 percent by age 30. The Southern Baptist Convention, America's largest denomination, recently observed that growth in their churches is failing to keep up with the birth rate. Taken toget… Continue

Article From Joe White...

Being a parent is . . . . well, it's . . . it's . . . it's an irrepressible flow of superlatives.

It's incomparable.

It's life's highest privilege.

It's nuts!

It's hard. It's wonderful. It's tough. It's indescribably fulfilling. It's challenging like no job in the world!

I receive dozens and dozens of emails from parents who are asking serious questions about the tough times . . . the really tough times of elementary school, pre-adolescence and adolescence. One statement from Matthew 5 and… Continue
