Marquee Encouragement

We are in the 2nd day of the 626 Mandate prayer movement. I have been so encouraged when it is my turn to pray. When I log on to the 626 Mandate website there are people’s names and the churches they are from that scroll across the bottom. It is like a marquee announcing that […]

Rain Capital’s Dream to Reality

I just received news from the guys of Rain Capital, LLC that they were recently awarded a $1,500 “Dare to Dream” Grant from the Zell Lurie Institute. They entered their proposal under Rain Distributors and now they will have the opportunity to invest the money into some of the projects that were discussed. These guys […]

626 Mandate Launch Service

Even though our time together was short, we were able to pray with fervor and focus. I was especially encouraged to see many of the single adults, who had work the next morning come out to pray. There are things in life to reveal the condition of our physical health (more of our overestimation of […]

626 Mandate Part 2 Countdown

      In just a little over a week, all the AMI churches all around the world will be united in our 2nd 626 Mandate. About a year ago, Pastor Keith from Church of Southland received a conviction with Isaiah Isa 62:6-7, “I have posted watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; they will never […]

Members To Missionaries

There is a phrase that God has been formulating in my heart and mind for our church. I shared it at the congregational meeting… “members molded and moved to be missionaries” Until our mission statement of “transforming lost people into Christ’s disciples who will transform the world” becomes a passion for us, we will just […]

1st Retreat for HMCC of Chicago

I have always been a firm believer that the first of everything is very important. In fact, they are like markers in our journey of life. I am going to be heading out to Chicago tomorrow morning, along with our worship team to lead the first HMCC of Chicago retreat. I am so stoked about […]

Project Snowflake

The Creative Worship Team and with the help of the Arts Department in our church came out with a Christmas CD. This has been a dream of our church to see people using their gifts and talents for the Lord and also somehow connecting it to the greater vision of God’s Kingdom. Therefore, it encouraged […]

New Church in San Diego

I will be heading out to LA this weekend to speak at Church of Southland and also to be a part of the inaugural service for Kairos Christian Church. Pastor Mark Chun will be the lead pastor of this new and exciting church. I met him back in March at an AMI Conference out in […]

10th Year Anniversary

   Tomorrow night we are going to gathering everyone together for the 10th year Reunion Service. It is going to be awesome reconnecting with everyone. We will spend some time in the Word and worshipping together – HMCC style! Then on Saturday, the formal banquet at the Marriott Hotel will be an added treat (thank […]

The Countdown Has Begun

Two more hours before the 626 Mandate.       We will be ushering in the next 40 days with 24/7 prayer around the world with all the AMI churches and missionaries. It is exciting to know that we are not trying to accomplish the Great Commission by ourselves but there are other brothers and […]

HMCC 10th Anniversary

It’s hard to believe that this fall will mark the 10th year of our church. As I look back at all that God has done, I’m filled with amazement and thankfulness. God has carrried out the mission and vision in so many people whose lives were transformed here at HMCC, and who are now transforming […]

The 626 Mandate

In about a month (September 1st), all the AMI churches around the world will start “The 626 Mandate.” It is a prayer movement. We will be committing ourselves to 24/7, 40 days of non-stop, unbroken prayer chain. This mandate comes directly from Isaiah 62:6-7 (NIV), “I have posted watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; they […]

A Dream Is Conceived

It was a crazy trip out to Chicago. The family and I drove out to Chicago Tuesday morning. We celebrated Jake’s b-day (the kids’ uncle) in the afternoon. Then on Wednesday evening we met up with people who wanted to know more about the future church plant on the Northwestern University campus. I was telling […]

Get Involved

I remember someone once saying that “a team effort is always better than an individual effort in accomplishing great things.” As I am doing ministry, I am noticing how true that statement is in my life. It is easy (and even natural) to try to do everything by myself but the reality is that without […]
