Philadelphia vs. Sioux City – Part 2

Posted: 27th July 2010 by Jeffrey Ream in Life

1.  In Sioux City people think I am metro! Last week I was told by one of our staff guys who will remain anonymous that I am a metro-sexual because I drink vitamin water and have a few cool t-shirts. In Philadelphia I was the staff guy furthest away from being thought to be metro…just [...]

Philadelphia vs Sioux City Part 1

Posted: 15th July 2010 by Jeffrey Ream in Family, Life

Now that I have been at Sunnybrook for two full weeks I thought I would list a few differences that I have already noticed between Philadelphia & Sioux City. Drive through conversations:  The first day morning as I drove into work I stopped by Starbucks for a morning pick-me-up.  I knew things were a little [...]

Musings from Philippines 4

Posted: 14th April 2010 by Jeffrey Ream in Life, Spiritual Walk, The Bible

I came across a passage in Philippines a few days ago that has stuck with me and I would love to just pass it along to you. It’s from Philippines 4. (NLT) 4 Always be full of joy in the Lord. I say it again—rejoice! 5 Let everyone see that you are considerate in all [...]

Community

Posted: 5th March 2010 by Jeffrey Ream in Life, Life groups, Prayer

Last night I was reminded about the fact that we as the body of Christ are family. We do life together and we are there for each other. Recently one of the volunteers on my team asked for prayer for their spouse who was interviewing for a new job. They brought their needs before God [...]

Jesus is everywhere

Posted: 7th January 2010 by Jeffrey Ream in Family, Life, Spiritual Walk, The Bible

The longer I am a daddy the more funny my kids seem to become. Their innocence and the way they view the world and the things around us has a purity about it. Well the other day as we were driving down the road with both boys in the back seat Mason said “Daddy, God [...]

Wow, it has been a long time since I have actually “Blogged”. It’s not that I don’t like to blog, it’s just that the season I have been in for the past six months has been a personal journey. I have heard rumors about me which frankly I would be proud of if they were [...]

Remembering 9-11

Posted: 11th September 2009 by Jeffrey Ream in Life

I have been listening to a replay of the 9-11 events this morning on Fox News this morning.  It is amazing how I can remember that day like it was yesterday.  Jennifer & I were in a rehearsal for an upcoming CD recording session in Forest, Va.  We stopped and the events of the day  [...]

Seeking God

Posted: 1st September 2009 by Jeffrey Ream in Family, Life, Spiritual Walk, The Bible

We had a great weekend at Fellowship Church. We had a great turn out for our community wide yard sale.  It was so cool to see so many great items donated by FC folks.  This was no ordinary yard sale.  We gave away things like patio furniture, bedroom suites, tv’s, gps units, clothes, bicycles, etc.  [...]

A Strengthened Heart

Posted: 28th August 2009 by Jeffrey Ream in Life, Spiritual Walk, The Bible

Today I have talked to several people that seemed to be tired and lacking strength.  I have to admit that I am right there with them today.  I have slept too little this week.  If you’re like me it can be so hard for your mind to shut down when you finally get to bed. [...]

God’s Favor

Posted: 26th August 2009 by Jeffrey Ream in Family, Life, The Bible

A phrase that Pastor John used to use a lot was “God’s favor”.  I have heard stories all my life about people having real life needs met in miraculous ways.  Some people might think they are circumstantial or even luck.  But we know that it is God meeting the needs of His children just as [...]
