Hey y’all! The DC Dream Team started the day with a prayer breakfast at the Southeast White House, a faith-based meal where city-minded people can connect, anyone from congressmen to homeless men. I got to learn about DC and the people in it from local leaders while eating bacon. Afterwards, we were able to help lead a […]

Happy Independence Weekend
As we celebrate our nation’s independence with backyard BBQs, firework shows, and a bonus three-day weekend, a group of students from Chapel Hill will be watching fireworks on the national mall in Washington D.C.

A Healthy Backwards Glance
One of my favorite verses is Luke 9:62 where Jesus says, “No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.” The historical context is simple. If the plowman was looking back over his shoulder, he would end up zigzagging his way across the field. The […]
Finished, or only just beginning?
I have a confession to make. In my heart of hearts, I confess that sometimes I lack grace for people. It may only be an occasional, internal dialogue, but I’ve thought often enough of how so-and-so falls short that I’ve heard the holy conviction of Jesus’ Spirit whispering in my heart about it. Jesus’ own […]
Honoring Their Legacy
If you are at Chapel Hill on the Sundays just before Memorial Day and Veteran’s Day each May and November, you’ll notice that we have a faithful group of people helping lead worship in a unique way.
