More Fragile Than I Thought, More Held than I Knew

I never imagined my first night in a hospital would start with me blacking out – and coming to on the cold tile where the toilet once stood. My wife’s frantic voice cut through the fog moments after she’d been startled awake by the sound of shattering porcelain. She helped me back to bed, and as I lay there dazed, …

New Chapters, New Adventures

As the school year winds down, we’re filled with a mix of emotions! We are incredibly proud of our high school seniors who are graduating this year.

Called to Both

Mother’s Day brings a swirl of emotions—joy, gratitude, maybe even a bit of weariness. As a mom and as someone who walks alongside others in their faith journeys, I’ve come to realize that motherhood and ministry aren’t two separate callings. They intertwine – often in the most unexpected and sacred ways. There have been seasons when I’ve felt completely poured out, running …

You Are NOT Alone

If you live in Peachtree City, you probably followed the story of Jarod Neidlinger: the frantic searches through our greenbelts, the hope, the heartbreak, and finally the testimony his mother Lori shared in The Citizen last December. Lori’s words still ring in my ears: after the schizophrenia diagnosis “we felt completely alone and didn’t know of anyone else in Peachtree …

Celebrating 40

What a journey we have had through 40 days of Lent leading up to the joyous celebration of Easter.  The next Christian celebration after Easter is Ascension Day, which marks the 40th day after Easter and commemorates Jesus’s ascension into heaven.  This Sunday we will celebrate the 40th year of PTCUMC Weekday School.  Needless to say, forty has been on my …

We Have Arrived at Holy Week

Sisters and Brothers – we’ve reached the sacred threshold of Holy Week. Our uphill journey through Lent has brought us to the precipice of the Last Supper and the suffering of our Lord on Good Friday. Just beyond, Easter awaits. To those who’ve journeyed through the Gospel of Luke (only two days to go!)- I’m so proud of you. Our …

Voices of Victory: The Power of Easter Music

Easter is the heartbeat of our Christian faith, a season of rejoicing in the resurrection of Jesus Christ, our risen Savior. Every time we gather for worship, we celebrate His victory over sin and death, and music plays a vital role in this sacred expression. In our church, hymns like “Hosanna, Loud Hosanna,” “Were You There?,” “Beneath the Cross of …
