Inspiration

July 21, 2008

There is only one thing I can say about inspiration – It is vital and powerful. OK two things, but the key is that a life lived without inspiration really can’t be classified as living. I am not talking about some things labeled inspirational today. Not talking about a feel good story or song here. The essence of inspiration is to live “in spirit”. When you open your eyes to visibly and spiritually see the world around you, your spirit takes note and responds.

Few of us listen to our own spirit, we are often too busy with the minutia of life. We have schedules and they need to be followed and so on. Inside each of us there is an answer to the question “What am I here for?” We go to others to ask their help, but we know the answer instinctively. Your inner spirit is constantly telling you to “do what you are here to do.”

Quit making excuses and begin with the first step. Today.

Santina’s Italian Restaurant

May 5, 2008

At Lifepoint we have many people who are involved in a lot of different business endeavors. One of those people is Greg Phillips. Greg is going to be starting a men’s discussion group centered around the theme od Wild at Heart, a great book by John Eldridge.

Greg helps run Santina’s.If you were at Lifepoint this past Sunday, the videos were shot in the restaurant. When you go, try to talk to Santina herself and listen to the remarkable story of determination and survival from cancer. O yeah, check out the mural on the back wall and see if you can spot some “local influences”.

Seriously,Santina’s is located down Russell in the Kroger shopping center. When you step through the doors you would swear you were somewhere else – I’m not over-romanticizing, it’s true. You’ll just have to check it out for yourself. Go by and say “Hi” to Greg, Rick and Santina, and prepare to sink your teeth into true Italian cuisine.

For more on the full story behind the restaurant check this out.

Fast Start

January 4, 2008

This year is beginning with a fast pace. It seems to me that this year is going to be one that is full of completions – a year of “getting things done”. I know that we all have things that we wish we had done in the past, so let’s take this year as an opportunity to get to it and finish these things. This year I want to encourage you to “seize the day” in every area of your life. Let this year be a year that you can look back on and remember as a year where many great things happened!
