I am often asked where I find my inspiration for sermons - this is one place. I believe God speaks to me daily and this is a place where you can look over my shoulder as I write some notes to myself as we journey towards Sunday . . .

A peek at Sundays to come . . .
I find inspiration for sermons and bible studies in the strangest of places and I often write short notes to myself and place them on or around my desk. I also pick up books that I want to read at some point and stack them up by my desk. This past week I found myself drowning in all the notes I had accumulated on my desk. I also discovered that I had a stack of books that would have made Yertle the Turtle proud. On top of that my head was spinning with ideas.
So, I took a couple of days to begin to outline a plan for the coming 12 months of Bible Studies and Sermons. If nothing else, I would at least de-clutter my desk and more importantly my head!
Want a sneak peek?
Check out my reduced reading list in no particular order:

Feel free to grab a book and read along.
Who knows where we will end up.
I feel much more organized and definitely de-cluttered.
Can't wait to find our what God has in store . . .
I'll be taking notes and leaving them on my desk . . .
So the cycle continues . . .
