.: FREEdom:: The Echo…

I read this quote to Remedy Church this morning in continuation of our FREEdom message series. I love the simple (and costly) freedom that can be found by those who entrust their baggage, hope, and “religion” to Jesus of Nazareth. Christianity is all about the belief that the living God, in fulfillment of his promises [...]

.: FREEdom:: dravest…

Amanda and I took a drive south of Salisbury, through the woods and backroads, with the boys this morning. Our goal was simple:: to cross the Wicomico River without getting our truck wet. We found success by riding the single-car ferry for the first time… and it was a blast. While we were on our [...]

The beginning of summer at Remedy Church marks the launch of our small groups summer semester… which is pure greatness. Remedy Groups are the backbone of Remedy Church. They are where community is launched, connections are formed, love is lived out, and relationships are strengthened. They are where true spiritual growth is catalyzed. Our Remedy [...]

.: Love Letters…

John Wooden passed away tonight at 99 years of age. Many more words will be written and spoken in the next few hours, days, and years… but there won’t be any more powerful than this story of his love for his wife, Nell. LOVE… LOYALTY… BALANCE… (you might also enjoy this video tribute…) ………………………. //rweaver//

Several weeks ago, Andy Ehlers asked me to preach the initial sermon in the “One Prayer” series at the church he planted with his wife and family a little over seven years ago (High Tide Church in Bethany Beach, DE). The main text for the message that I will be preaching is Psalm 139 and [...]

Our names have so much meaning. Our names are important. They are interconnected with our identity. They shape who we become. There is a Veggie Tales story called “A Snoodle’s Tale” about the names that people give us (and our true identity that we can find in God). It is a phenomenal story that is [...]

While shopping at Ollie’s a few weeks ago, I stumbled upon a pair of  books by Dan Kimball entitled They Like Jesus but Not the Church. I had read a couple of reviews on the book, so when I saw it at Ollie’s for $5.99… I grabbed both copies without hesitation. Why BOTH copies? Because [...]

.: Much Thanks…

Living and serving such a distance from our immediate family presents some unique challenges for Amanda and I. We are extremely thankful for the community that the Lord has blessed us with at Allen… and the friends that have adopted us. There are so many of you who have texted, emailed, facebooked, and called this [...]

My message this weekend for our AM/SM Junior High and High Skool services is centering on the topic of serving God and serving others. Over the past couple of semesters, I have spent much energy attempting to communicate and convey what the Lord has been teaching me about missional living… and loving my neighbors. There [...]
