Enjoy this inspiring video that reminds us about the importance of church in our lives, the purpose of church from God, and the hope the church offers the world. Go be the CHURCH!!!!!
The video is short so it won’t take much of your time…it is well worth the watch! Be blessed CHURCH! I love you and I am glad I am apart of God’s Church!

Are you ready for some football!!!! Check out this wacky card to get you pumped up. I put this together to encourage and motivate the guys from Kent State who go to church with us.
Recently Broadman Baptist Church was recognized by LifeWay (www.lifeway.com) as being one of the most effective VBS ministry’s in America. Broadman’s VBS was in the top 100 churches in America among churches who have 100 or less in Sunday School on average. WOW!!! I am humbled and honored…as we all should be for the Glory of God.
Broadman has always worked hard at VBS and we have always had great success. This is a huge pat on the back from God in my opinion for doing VBS with excellence every year. It is a pat on the back from God for all those who have worked so hard. This is really a big deal…it is a huge recognition from God. We already knew we did VBS well, but to be recognized in the top 100 in the nation is a great motivation to continue to press on in the minsitry the Lord calls us to do.
I hope this encourages you…knowing that God has blessed our congregation. Let’s always remember that everything we do is all about God. He gets the glory. Every child, every family, and this community witnessed the outpouring of God’s Spirit upon this place in 2007 and this past years VBS was even greater…2008 was a huge God thing like almost nothing I have witnessed in my life. I still don’t know where all the people came from!!! But I would assume that we will be recognized again for our accomplishments in the Lord in 2009.
Thank you Lord Jesus and thank you people of God at Broadman for serving Him,
First off….THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!! Praise the Lord for everyone who has and is working so hard for the Lord to make VBS a life changing experience.
As we ventured to Outrigger Island to caught a big wave…the WAVE OF GOD IS REAL!!! The reality of God in our world is overwhelming. The kids, youth and adults learned that God is as real as the person next to you. It is awesome to know that we serve the REAL GOD who created all things!!!!
I want you to know that the Devil is nervous and God is on the move. That is awesome. We already had a couple of youth saved (Brittany and Paige)…I know others will too!
The place truly looks awesome…just like a tropical paradise. Hawaii would be jealous!!!
I want to encourage everyone to realize this week will be exhausting, but rewarding. Remember to stay focused on Christ, be prayerful and patient in all things…it is all GOOD because God is GOOD…All the time!
Day 1 was a little hectic…front door being busted…thanks the Bob G. It is already fixed…air conditioning not working in one of the rooms…a few personalities/attitude issues (which we all have by the way)…working out timing/schedules and other things and the chaos of just managing 130 kids is enough to make your head spin. BUT IT IS AWESOME>>> and we are doing a GREAT JOB!!!!
Just remember God has brought us to this point to reach those who need Christ, to disciple those who do know Christ, to develop our character (which He is doing whether you realize it or not…He worked on me last night) and to have fun…did I say have fun..oh yeah…have fun okay!~! Are we having fun!!! Okay I will stop the fun thing…I think you get the drift!!!! Or should I say SURF!!!
Keep up the great work everyone…let’s join God. Continue to be in prayer for yourself and one another. It is hard to believe VBS is actually here…it will be over before you know it…so let’s enjoy every moment.
