Being bi-vocational is hard; on my soul and body. But my first ministry will always look like playing catch with my boy — even on Sundays when I’m dog tired. I pray that I don’t forget that. 🤟🏿🖤 by @cameronmascott

1927 officially started today. Very grateful to God for it. On the way to church today I told my family thank you - having a husband and dad as pastor isn’t easy. I love them with my entire soul. It’s a privilege and honor and heavy weight. In Christ, I can handle it. by @cameronmascott

Had @1927church’s first preaching meeting! We are all the way locked in. Starting on our first Sunday, we’ll start a teaching series through the Apostle Paul’s letter to the Colossians! Perfect book for a new church plant.

We decided to call it: Christ Alone.

Winter of 2024 was hard. I was anxious — really, really anxious. I couldn’t eat. I’d come home from work, tell my boys to go inside, just so I could cry out my fears in the car. I knew what the scriptures said. I didn’t matter. I had this need to be in control. I cried so much that winter. I yelled at God. I lamented who I’d become. I hadn’t grieved my mother’s death well or dealt with the breakdown of familial relationships. I was hurting and scared.

Sarah noticed. She would force me to go on our “winter walks”. She’d hold my hand and pray for me while we walked. She’d invite me to pray knowing I didn’t feel like it. Overtime, I experienced God on those walks. It got to the point to where I didn’t feel the cold, only his presence. I didn’t know it, but I was seeking God’s face. It changed me. It broke me. I started healing. I am still healing. And I am still seeking his face.

Anxiety is fear of future pain, and when anxiety is running the show, it starts making all your future plans for you.

1927 is being planted for the anxious. It’s for the people who feel stuck; who are angry at God and want to step away. It’s for us.

We fight the good fight knowing that even in cold winter nights, God will, in his rich mercy, meet us where we’re at. by @cameronmascott

Hey! Some of you know I've been part of planting a new church in Des Moines called 1927 — a Church of the City of Des Moines.

Here's the heart of it: we believe the ancient way of following Jesus — gathered around Word, Table, and one another — is exactly what our city needs right now. Not a parking lot for spiritual consumers, but a garden: slow, real, and alive. We go public for the first time on September 27.

We just opened our online registry — kind of like a baby registry, but for a new church. Real, specific needs: everything from sound equipment to Bibles to a few weeks of rent at our venue.

Would you take a look and see if anything jumps out? Even something small helps a lot right now: 1927church.org/registry

I’ve been holding in some anger/bitterness since Mother’s Day. I wanted to see my mom; give her a Mother’s Day hug and hand her some Mother’s Day flowers.

I had forgotten.

I had forgotten all the beautiful memories God gave me with her; 32 years of them to be exact.

I had forgotten the beauty of my family. Sarah’s gorgeous. Her spirit and soul dovetail so much of what I experience with God: extreme patience, loving-kindness, wisdom, strength.

My boys, Tito & Bleu. Raising them is paradoxical. So fun and life-giving; so pressure-filled (my own doing) and impossible. It is one of my greatest and most consistent a forms of worship; raising these boys to be men that will have the kind of shoulders others can lean on (you can Billy Withers “Lean on Me” can’t you?). Yea, I feel inadequate and unqualified to be their dad, but that thought wastes away each time I accept God’s sufficient grace.

I’m trying hard to remember this week. Not in a white-knuckling kind of way, but more in a sit in my garage and smoke a cigar while the birds chirp, and the wind blows kind of way.

I think the act of remembering is the strongest spiritual discipline there is…

Pictures help us remember; in quite a powerful way, actually.

So, I hope you take some time to remember with me — it’ll make you less anxious, less angry, and more joyful.

Cheers! 🥂 by @cameronmascott
