Living Real

Playing for Change is an organization created to “inspire, connect and bring peace to the world through music.” This particular video is “Stand by Me” — the old Ben E. King song. The “band” is made up of street musicians. The premise shared by Roger Ridley of Santa Monica, California is simple and beautiful. “No matter [...]

Perhaps you’ve noticed I’ve been absent. Perhaps not. Call it writers block. Call it lazy. Call it whatever you wish, but I just haven’t been able to write over the past several weeks. Watch out world, that’s about to change. On May 24th, I had surgery on my right foot. I will share some stories [...]

Isn't it funny what you're willing to give when you know your daddy will take care of you?  Yeah. What are YOU willing to give?

Could there have been a better time for Max Lucado to write this book — in a time when seemingly everything we know and believe is changing? Looking at several storms in the lives of Jesus and His disciples, Max draws parallels to our own fears, counteracting our natural response with the words of the [...]

In 2005, we were startled into action on August 29th by a hurricane known as Katrina. Within hours of hearing about the devastation with the landfall, the first wave from Church of the Cove was headed south. The next day, a group of about fifteen hit the road followed two days later by another group [...]

Today, I'm a thief. I "stole" this from Dave Anderson's blog and I'm placing it here in mine. I have wept, laughed and shouted. I'm pretty sure it will speak to you, too. 

I am so blessed to serve with the students of our church! Tonight we piled into a truck and the van and went to the home of a couple who have been dealing with life-stuff and needed a helping hand beating back the yard. With the riding mower, a push mower and several weed-whacking machines, [...]

I am so blessed to be a part of The ConneXion at Church of the Cove! The teens tolerate me and I adore them. I get to share some Bible truths with them and help them learn ways to live the way God wants them to.  Yesterday was our Live Love Sunday.That's a Sunday that [...]

I can't begin to share exactly the depths of my insecurity. All my life I've wanted to feel like I fit in, like I was worth something. Like people wanted to be around me just because of me.  This morning in my GT (God-Time) I was working through today's lesson in the Beth Moore study [...]

Kem Meyer is with us today to share some of her experience with us. I asked several questions, and she chose to answer this one. Enjoy! To see her other interviews, visit her blog.  FAYE: If you were to move to a small church with little to no budget for communications, how would you implement [...]

Tomorrow, Friday, May 29, 2009, is a big day around here. Kem Meyer, Communications Director at Granger Community Church, is stopping by to visit and share some of her vast experience and wisdom. The really cool thing about that is, YOU can get a whole book full of it to read and keep handy. Described [...]

If you've never met Kem Meyer, you're missed a real experience. She's a vivacious, witty woman with a passion for helping people. She's not so full of herself that she can't laugh at herself, even though she's got lauds & honors galore. I could be a teensy-weensy little bit jaded in her favor. Because of her [...]
