Today a few of us are going to play basketball, a local church has graciously let us use their gym. Tonight is SNL and i pray that the Lord would speak to each one who attends. Well i am off to get ready to play. Love you guys

Winter Cold Weather is Here

Hey ya'all the winter cold weather has come, and I sit by the fire wondering if we will be able to have church int the AM. Now when I say "cold" i mean 20 degrees and in the teens for tonight.
We'll God is so good, I have been spending an insane amount of time in the word and prayer, seeking the heart of God, I have come to the realization that the ministry is truly the Lords and not mine. It wasn't until I understood that Peter when he was filled with the Holy Spirit, began to preach and 3000 people got saved. Now what does that mean to me... This Ministry here in Lubbock has to Holy Spirit lead and directed, now i know that sounds elementary but often times we want to take control of our ministry and direct it. Let me exhort you as i was exhorted.
Keep the main thing the main thing, do not allow "anything" get in the way your personal and intimate relationship with Christ. May the Lord richly bless you as we follow Him in this New Year.

Once again God is at "work"

Good Morning, once again I am at work this morning and just found out that my hours have changed and that i will not be doing the AM show starting next week. I am excited about the changes that God wants to bring. Yesterday seem somewhat normal at church as many of our people came back from vacation. I am most eager to start the year with what the Lord wants us to do. So much, I feel is getting lost due to fact that there is no time or we are just to tired to do it. Well tonight the women start their bible study again and the college kids will be coming in soon. Resurrection Sunday is ONLY 89 days away... Must be in Prayer for that.
God bless

Pastor Ben's first blog

What is a blog??? When i first heard of blogging i thought that something wierd would happen. But as i see other calvary chapel pastors blogging i decided to create one of my own.
Well it's been 3 yrs since we started the church here in lubbock and God is moving in some mighty amazing ways... We have moved twice since our inception in 2003 and God has bless us in so many ways... We now occupy a 8000 sq ft building right in the center of the city. We give all the praise and glory for what he has done in our lives. Well that's all i have for now. check back soon and i will have more.
God bless
