Dear Typepad,

Please fix your post creating interface thingy. You know the thing I type my blog into that allows it to be posted on my website. It used to work very nicely. Now since you've changed it looks a lot cooler but it's useless. It's slow, it doesn't respond to me quickly, please fix this one or go back to the old one.

Thank you!

Monday Relfections on Wednesday

* Great Sunday....really great!! ( I know that not proper English)
* The worship was incredible!!
* Our setup and tear down teams are amazing!!
* I love being a Dad!!
* We gave away Rockstar energy drinks to everyone and we gave away a grill to one Dad - that was a lot of fun!
* Tried to go eat at Bridges, which is one of my favorite Italian places, but they had one waitress for the whole restaurant - who made the schedule for that day? Not very smart!!
*Sunday evening Tammie wanted me to rent whatever I wanted and we would watch it together. I got Rambo: First Blood Part II - amazing!!
* She stayed awake for the whole thing - great wife!!
* We went downtown Sunday afternoon and walked around, got ice cream and window shopped. I love the downtown area!
* I love to hear the stories of life change in our church!
* Can't wait to start our next series called OUTLAWS - just saw the design work for it - by far my favorite up to this point.
* God is really stretching me right now in a good way, but it's kicking my tail and that's not fun - but I need it!!
* Some really cool things planned for this fall!!

4 Years and Counting

Four years ago this past Thursday Tammie and I committed our lives and love to one another. It has been the most amazing four years. She is an amazing women and I am so blessed to be the one she chose.

For our anniversary we went to Williamsburg which was a blast. Cool town, good food, and a ghost tour. Now that was an experience. I told Tammie I thought the tour guide was smokin what she was selling.

In Indy

Jeremy and I flew into Indy yesterday afternoon for a panel discussion I was a part of with the Missional Network Gathering, which is a part of the SBC. I had a great time, seemed to go by really fast. I enjoyed connecting with the other guys on the panel that I had been watching from a distance. Kerry, Brian and Shawn are awesome guys and are being used in the kingdom in some incredible ways.

Also, got to see Indiana Jones - I got to be honest weird is the only word that comes to mind - especially the ending. Weird, really weird.

Tim, who is the Pastor of Genesis at West Ridge came with Brian - check out his take the evening here - funny!

Monday Morning

This is what I walked into this morning as I opened my office door. Not sure who did it but it made me laugh.

This is the after picture!

Missional Network

If you are going to be in Indianapolis on June 9th make plans to attend the Missional Network Dinner which is a apart of the Southern Baptist Convention's Annual Meeting. I have been asked to be a part of a discussion panel along with Kerry Shook, Brian Bloye, and Shawn Lovejoy. I plan on spending most of my time being quiet and learning a lot!

Monday Relfections (quick hits)

I am about to leave the house to spend the day with the family at Lake Anna.

* Powerful day yesterday!
* We had a n ice cream truck outside waiting for everyone as they left - it even played the old school music like when we were kids. Nice way to kick off a sunny Memorial Day weekend.
* The worship was intense - I am loving the new song How He Loves.
* We strew out blow up instruments during the closing song. You had to be there - it was tons of FUN!
* Next week is going to be one of those weeks you don't want to miss. It's also our last Sunday at Parkside.
* We have the greatest volunteers in the world!
* We had a ton of people sign up yesterday to start volunteering who currently are not volunteering. Super excited about that!
* Gotta run!
