“when my boys are grounded and I look at them and say, okay. Hey. Sorry. You got no PlayStation, no phones, no electronics whatsoever. It almost grieves my heart after, of course, the initial pushback and, oh, you're being so mean and you're a horrible father, all these things for for disciplining them. But then I watch over the next couple days how boredom pushes them out So true. To do different things. And I'm just like, it grieves my heart because I'm like, we're missing this. They're they're robbed of boredom creativity.”

#FaithThroughStorms
“Here's the reality. Without storms of life, you're not gonna be able to stand. But the storms of life actually produce growth. So choose to do the right hard thing and walk through the storm because it will. It will help prove that your faith is genuine. It will help produce growth. But then thirdly, it'll bring about glory. Going back to first Peter chapter seven, it finishes like this. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world.”

“But when you when you don't have a wealthy set of parents, they were awesome, and they loved me, and they raised me to love Jesus and all the wonderful things that are the most important things, but money wasn't just growing on trees. And so when you want something, there's that's your only option Right. Is to just buckle down and work for it. And I think that we have, in society and in life, just thank God for the wonderful things that that society brings us. But we're growing more and more comfortable.”
39s
“But we're growing more and more comfortable. And in comfort, we're looking for more and more people to give us a handout rather than to work for what we want. That is one thing that's you know, I have one kid who, man, he doesn't mind working. I mean, he he's 14, and he's mad that he can't go work full time. Mhmm. And it's he he wants stuff. And and saved his money. Bought a dirt bike. He worked all summer in the tobacco fields in Aynor,”
34s
“But she had this car she wanted. It was a thousand dollars. She said it was $500, and I was like, I don't know that this is a good idea. She's like, oh, look at this. It's incredible. The Jeep Liberty. And and so I said, okay. Cool. It was easy for us. You know? It's easier to match 500 than it is 2,000. Yeah. And so she got this car, and it lasted about six months. One thing with older cars, here's some old man wisdom For everybody watching, if you're a a young person, you may not know this, but oil needs to stay in the car.”

#ChoosePerseverance
“The right hard thing is to persevere, is to say, I'm I'm gonna move forward. My marriage is struggling. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna say, let's get divorced. I'm not gonna sign a divorce paper. I'm gonna do the right thing, and I'm gonna fight for my marriage. I'm gonna persevere. Man, college has been tough. I just wanna throw in the towel. You're so close to finishing. Persevere. That that sobriety is hard. I just wanna grab a drink. I I just wanna grab another pill. Do the right thing. Persevere. Faith is difficult. Life has been a bit bit of a struggle. Man, I just feel like I wanna throw in the towel. Persevere. Choose to do the right hard thing.”
33s
“"Peter's close-knit relationship with Jesus through all of his ups and downs in life proves that Jesus truly longs for intimacy with his followers. Just normal, everyday people like Peter, like me, like you. Seeing how Jesus took an uneducated man who had a hot head at times, sinful, man, loved him infinitely. It gives me assurance and should give us all assurance that Jesus can and he will do this for us as well."”
32s
“"Peter's obedience to wait led to an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. That's powerful, right? Immediately after experiencing the power of Pentecost, Peter then boldly declares the gospel for the first time since Jesus' ascension into heaven. He saw fruit immediately from his moments spent waiting for the promise of the father, the Holy Spirit. Waiting doesn't always seem like a positive phase. Sometimes it can seem negative. We have a negative connotation to waiting because we don't get it immediately."”
28s
“"Wouldn't you agree that that is a really tough part in life to be in? Let me clarify. Phases of waiting are not seasons of just checking out, just waiting, doing nothing. While sometimes those things are perfectly fine in life, these phases of waiting are truly designed to do what you need to prepare you on the other side of what seems like a season of silence. Have you been there before where you're waiting? You're waiting for God to speak. You're waiting for God to move. You feel like it's been forever."”
27s
“"Change isn't always easy. But as we navigate change, we must trust in God's plan, knowing that he is with us every single step of the way, even through some of life's challenges. And so the second point I want to talk about today are phases of challenges. Life is not without its trials. We are going to go through some things, right? We encounter setbacks and disappointments and loss. And these seasons are the ones that really test our faith and resilience."”

Why Aynor churches are unique

Rooted in Horry County’s farming heritage and tight‑knit neighborhoods, churches in Aynor reflect a slower pace and deep family ties. Congregations often follow seasonal rhythms—from planting to the fall harvest—shaping ministries that emphasize relationship, mentorship, and practical care. Visitors will notice small group culture, strong kids programs for young families, and multi-generational church congregations.
Aynor churches are closely woven into civic life, supporting local schools, town events, and long-standing traditions that bring neighbors together. This creates a hospitable atmosphere where service projects and community gatherings are as central as Sunday worship. Many congregations prioritize community service and food outreach, partnerships with local schools, and southern gospel and bluegrass worship that echo the area’s cultural roots.
Geographically, Aynor sits near coastal storm corridors yet serves a broad rural area, so churches tend to be both resilient and adaptable. They often mobilize volunteers quickly during emergencies while offering accessible worship and teaching throughout the year. You’ll find disaster relief and recovery teams, blended traditional and contemporary worship, and expository Bible teaching that balance heritage with practical faith.
