If you’re new to ABC, it won’t take you long to realize that ABC loves kids!  Our church family has always placed a strong emphasis on reaching and teaching the next generation for Jesus Christ.  Because of that, we offer some of the finest staff and volunteers, resources, and facilities to the youngest ones whoContinue reading “Teaching to Serve”

“Who do you say I am?”  In Matthew 16, Jesus asked this question to His disciples, as He understood that there were a variety of opinions circulating about Him.  This is because Jesus is the most famous person to ever walk on this earth and people have always been trying to make sense of Him. Continue reading “Life’s Most Important Question”

I hope you were as encouraged as I was last Sunday!  Easter 2021 was a special day in the life of our church as we celebrated a “homecoming” moment for many in the ABC family.  Last Sunday we saw 1,187 people join us in-person for our worship services, we distributed 3,000 eggs to children inContinue reading “Onward and Upward”

I hope you had a great week, and for those of you fortunate enough to enjoy a spring break, I hope you found some rest.  I had a great week with my family as we got to spend time together with out-of-town relatives and friends.  I missed being with you all on Sunday, but itContinue reading “Getting Prepared”

I looks like warmer weather and sunny skies arrived just in time for this week’s spring break!  Many Austinites have been looking forward to this week, especially after such a frigid and tumultuous February.  Thousands of Austinites are now spending time with their family and friends to rest and recharge for the final sprint toContinue reading “Easter Homecoming”

It was great to be back at church this past weekend!  I was so encouraged to see many faces walk through our church doors to experience the fellowship, encouragement, and worship that only comes through the gathering of God’s people.  I think our recent winter storm taught us that it’s easy to take some thingsContinue reading “A Strange Anniversary”

I think we would all agree that it’s been a wild couple of weeks.  Who would have thought that Austin, Tx could experience snow twice in one winter?  And not just snow, but 6 inches of snow and single digit temperatures!  My mind is still in a little bit of shock that we were inContinue reading “Where do we go from here?”

I hope you didn’t store away your winter coats too early!  Isn’t Austin such an amazing place to live?  One week it can be in the 80’s, and then another week we can be under a winter weather advisory.  It’s crazy to think that our temperature could drop to the “teens” in the coming days,Continue reading “Braving the Storm”

It’s hard to believe that January is already behind us, and we are now moving full steam ahead into February.  Super Bowl Sunday is coming up this weekend, and millions of eyes will be watching what should be an entertaining quarterback battle between Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes.  As we all know, every year AmericansContinue reading “Lessons from the Super Bowl”
