    • Former #UCLA coach Jim Harrick is now the assistant Coach at Cal State Northridge University. I stopped by and he was in his element teaching and coaching. He is 80 years young but had a spring in his step and and he was spot on with all his instruction. The team is very young but in coming years they are going to be strong. Hats off to Head Coach @mark_gottfried hiring Coach Harrick and #mowilliams. A lot of Coaching going on in the Matadom. #ridered #csun #gomatadors #jimharrick @davidpump7 @dana_pump #ucla #8clap #formerbruin #coachlooksgoodinred #80years #80yearsyoung
    • Finally, met @carichampion and 1000 other women at the LA Women Who Influence Conference at @shepherdchurch. @kaylafrancisla did an amazing job putting this event together and equipping women in whatever sphere of influence that God has placed them. @candacecbure was amazing. Enjoyed seeing DA Jackie Lacey and also the chance to interview @glennbraggs and #cindyherronbraggs of @envoguemusic. Can’t wait till next year for the 3rd annual conference for Women Who Influence. Love you Kayla Rae. And Cari, see you soon at the #Lakers game!

    • Church was amazing tonight @shepherdchurch and can’t wait for Sunday Morning to worship with believers from every walk of life! #shepherdchurch #onemonthtolive #philippians #worship
    • Enjoyed seeing several Shepherd youngsters playing football last night in a local High School football game between #Chaminade and #Alemany. #33 #22 #jonahburton #johnburton #5 #jonathanthomas to name a few. Be sure to check out #dailynews article by @_tarekfattal. And to the parents of these young men, I say to you.... job well done. Raising teenagers who work hard and who have great character is not easy in this world today. It was an honor to be there and looking forward to catching a @hcs_warriors football game soon. #fridaynightfootball @cluv5jbs
    • Breakfast at @pillarscafe this morning. #oatmeal #coffee #avacadotoast #firepit #water #churchat6:00pm.
    • Saw this on my twitter feed today. Praying that whoever broke into this car listens to the CD’s!
    • So, an update on my knee, just because so many people have asked. I have had a torn meniscus for about 10 years and it was painful to simply walk. So, this past Monday I had Arthroscopic surgery, and Dr Hartman from Simi Valley performed the procedure pictured. They wrapped my leg and asked me to keep the knee covered for at least three days. So this afternoon, I took the bandages off, surveyed the stitches and placed some bandaids over the crime. It is swollen, but I am able to do some physical therapy and should be back to normal in a couple of weeks. I might have a little hitch in my step this weekend, but I am ready to preach and kick off a new sermon series this weekend. Hope to see you in church with your Bible, your smile and a guest by your side. Thank you for your prayers and concerns. Love you!!! #oneleggedpreacher #drhartman #simivalley #thousandoaks #saxonsurgicalcenter #venturaorthapedics

When you become a new creation in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17), God wants to give you a brand-new perspective, a promising future, and an everlasting hope. One important byproduct of this awesome transformation is a new wardrobe as well! What I mean is this: You exchange your old, dirty, raggedy clothes—which represents your former and sinful ways—for clean, gleaming, new clothes—which represents your justification and sanctification through Christ. But instead of trendy styles or expensive…

Why God Chose Us—Not the Angels—to Deliver the Good News

September 4, 2018

If God were to ask me, “Dudley, who do you think should carry the message of salvation to the world?” my answer would be an easy one. “Angels!” I’d say. Why not? Angels have been used by God throughout the Bible to bring very important messages to people. In fact, the Greek word for angel can also mean “messenger.” In Luke 1:13, an angel delivered a message to Zechariah that his wife, Elizabeth, would give…
