Progress is ongoing at Greggton Global Methodist Church in Longview, Texas. The contractor is nearly finished with the interior drywall. The next steps involve the sprinkler contractor adjusting the current system and starting on the interior finishes. The church remains optimistic about occupying the space by Easter. I am eager to update you as the project approaches completion. Please join me in praying that the space will be a blessing to the church and that God will use i

Life usually doesn't unfold as planned. It is full of pivots, twists, and turns. Even the best-laid plans often go awry, even if only slightly. As a fairly even-keeled person, I have tended to roll with life's waves and breakers. Some of that is natural, but I think most of it is the work of the Spirit. I say that because I also have a bountiful harvest of fretting, and it is a hearty stalk. Not sure who in the family tree planted it, but my grandfather, my mum, my brother, a

There is a popular Christmas song called "Mary, Did You Know?" You might have heard it a few times... today. This Christmas season it seems to be following me everywhere: On the radio, on Pandora and Spotify, on TV, and in the stores and restaurants. There are some who enjoy it and some, like me, who find it less than appealing.

One Day, One Mercy at a Time We are squarely in the middle of Advent season. As I read again through the recorded events of the first arrival of Jesus I am struck anew with how ordinary the days surrounding this pivot in history must have seemed to those that lived through those days. We get glimpses into the lives of Mary, Jospeh, and Elizabeth whose lives were ordinary before God broke in. We get a sense of wonder from them, but the crowds don't seem to be thronging with an

Greggton Global Methodist Church contacted TECH Team in the summer of 2024 looking for design assistance in creating a new space to worship in. The church had located a 15,000 square foot retail space that originally was home to a pharmacy (and several other functions over the years). Working with the church, Eric was able to provide a design for the interior finish-out that met the needs of the church and the code/zoning requirements of the City. The Construction Documents w

I have taken a very quiet break from Facebook over the past couple months and here is what I have learned: 1) I spent too much time looking at videos and pictures of people I don’t know. 🎥 2) I DO have time to read some of those books! 📚 3) I miss seeing pictures and updates from the people I do know. 👩‍🍼 4) Even when I do go and scroll, I stop a lot faster right now. ⏱️ 5) I rely on Facebook to remind me of people’s birthdays. 🤦‍♀️🥳 6) I don’t really miss checking it e
