The Movement Church Giving

The Movement Church is a brand new church. In fact, we’re still in the process of being born, so we’re coming into existence with very little in the way of resources. But we have big dreams – dreams we believe are worthy of your gift should you choose to make an investment.

We invite individuals, churches, and organizations to pray about partnering with us as supporters, and we want you to understand the values that make The Movement Church a worthy cause:

• We want to be a very generous church, actively and visibly meeting needs in our community.
• We will invest in eternal things – people – before buildings.
• We are determined to multiply – re-investing our own resources into the planting of other churches.
• We value financial accountability and will maintain openness about how funds are used.
• We honor the wishes of donors and apply funds according to the intentions of the giver.

To make a donation feel free to use PayPal (button at the bottom) to make a donation, or you can send checks to the address on the right.

Yes, we need funds to operate. But also we recognize that people need opportunities to give even more than we need the gifts. So we invite you to join hands with us to plant The Movement Church.

Become a Strategic Partner
We have no assets, no savings, and no existing track record to establish a budget. What we do have is a huge vision for reaching the unchurched and dechurched of Bixby and South County Tulsa, OK. Our strategic partners contribute to us in a variety of ways – by praying, by sending people to help us periodically, and by contributing financially.

We have a projected budget of $75,000 for our first year, but also have a list of things we could use beyond our budget.

We would love to hear from potential strategic partners. So whether God is leading you to give $5 or $50,000, one-time or ongoing we would be honored for you to give to us.

We are a non profit church with Oklahoma.

Prayers with Children

My wife and I make it a point to pray daily over and with our kids.  Here are some of the scriptures we pray over them daily.

Oh, that you would bless our children and enlarge their territory! Let your hand be with them, and keep them from harm so that they will be free from pain

1 Chronicles 4:10

We pray that our children will be without any physical defect, handsome, showing aptitude for every kind of learning, well informed, quick to understand, and qualified to serve in the king’s palace

Daniel 1:4

The LORD bless our children and keep them; 
 the LORD make his face shine on them and be gracious to them; 
the LORD turn his face toward them and give them peace

Numbers 6:24-26

Setting Goals

It is that time of the year where most people set goals. I wanted to give you some resources as you start setting them. This year ask yourself, your spouse and God these questions.

  • Who am I?
  • Where have I come from?
  • How did I get there?
  • Where do I want to go?
  • How can I get there?

I want to encourage you to set goals in several different areas to maybe include your spiritual, business, family, and maybe financial goals.

I want you to also check out these 3 posts Here

Make 2012 your best year ever!!

The Movement Church Our Future

Over the weeks and months ahead we are going to be searching throughout Bixby, South County Tulsa and Tulsa Metro Oklahoma area for men, women, children, and families that connect with our vision for the MOVEMENT Church. Don’t worry if you don’t have any previous church experience, which is not really what we are looking for! Whatever station of life you find yourself, we want you to join our movement.

We need friendly people, graphic artists, rappers, rockers, financial planners, dreamers, people that are good with children and teenagers, web designers, all types of musicians, office managers, lighting and sound technicians, film editors, humans, actors and actresses, DJ’s, painters, singers and vocalists, sculptors, poets, writers, service planners, set designers, camera operators, licensed truck drivers, police officers, security workers, and more! If you don’t fit any of these categories, we are also looking for angry, bitter, sad, lonely, frustrated, and depressed people that want to change!

Between now and the time we launch in 2013 we will be hosting regular gatherings in our homes, doing random acts of kindness, holding interest meetings throughout the city, and having community outreaches this year that will help us grow our team and show our love to people of  Bixby and the greater Tulsa area.
We can’t do it without you. Become the movement!

The Movement Church Our Today

The MOVEMENT Church is currently building up a launch team of men, women, and children who are willing to dream dreams so ridiculously big that if God weren’t in it they wouldn’t come true! We believe that a few people can bring about a real, earth-shattering movement in the world! We believe that thousands of people who are distant and disconnected from the church will come to live adventurous Christian lives! We believe that real diversity makes us stronger! We believe that the bold, compassionate, revolutionary Jesus of the Gospels is more relevant today than ever before! We believe that South County Tulsa is going to birth a movement of courageous Christians that set a new standard for what it means to be a follower of Jesus!

Although our church is not officially launching until 2013 – we are developing a launch team today of people that want to be a part of building The MOVEMENT Church from the ground up. Your gifts, your input, your skills, and your social networks will be utilized as a part of something that is bigger than yourself that will bring depth and excitement to your life.

Our Story The Movement Church

For some time now, Stacey and I have known we were called to something far greater than ourselves. As we have continued to seek the heart of our Father we began to see that His call on our life was to pastor a church. As we now see this dream becoming reality, we are filled with excitement and anticipation to begin this God-inspired journey. This is not going to be an easy step to take but we are confident that we are doing what God has called us to do and we are excited to see God fulfill His purpose through us.

For the past six and a half years, we have been a part of Turning Point Church in McDonough, GA. During this time, God has developed in us a huge heart and passion for the local church. We are confident that serving at Turning Point has prepared and equipped us for this time in our life. We feel this has been one of our greatest experiences – one in which we have grown in so many ways.

Stacey and I have had the privilege of working at Turning Point for three and a half years and have learned so much. Our responsibilities during this time have given us some great opportunities to disciple new believers, grow leaders and communicate God’s truth in a relevant and life-giving way. We feel this experience has taught us what true leadership is and how to effectively lead and inspire others. We have had the opportunity to learn first hand the tools that are needed to effectively plant a successful church. Turning Point has been a place where we have truly seen how a church can change the culture of a community by reaching out to those who are hurting, lost and in need. This has inspired Stacey and I to do the same in the Bixby and South County Tulsa, Oklahoma area.

Please keep us in your prayers and stay posted for upcoming news.

One of a Kind

I wanted to inspire you today to help you realize that you are one of a kind. You are created in the image of God according to Genesis 1:27. God knew you before you were formed in your mothers womb according to Jeremiah 1:5. He destined you for greatness and has huge plans for you and wants you to walk in your purpose and calling in life.

There is no other person who has ever walked on this earth who is like you. You are rare, you are special, unique, different and important. You can make a huge difference in the lives of so many people. Over Ten Billion people have walked the earth, but there is not now, nor has there every been anyone like you. There never has been and never will be someone like you. Your voice pattern is different than any other voice on earth. Your fingerprints are different and your very genes leave a trail of identifying marks completely different than any other person who has ever lived. You are ONE OF A KIND.

Now develop your uniqueness and remember that we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Eph 2:10

Opportunity of a Lifetime

What If I told you that you had the opportunity but in this opportunity
You would have no
401k
Life, dental or health insurance
No company car
No guarantee of bonus or raise
No cell
And a substantial decrease in your current salary
Would you take that opportunity?
Now what if I said in this opportunity you will have opportunity to
Raise up leaders to fulfill their calling in Christ
See thousands come to know Christ
Gain hundreds of friends—not facebook friends but real friends
Be able to comfort someone in that time of need
See a student ministry grow from tens to over a hundred
Or see a church grow to reach 1000 on Easter ☺
Or be that father figure to a student, or child who does not have that in their life
WOULD YOU TAKE THAT OPPORTUNITY? Cause I did

Thanks Turning Point Church!!!
