Top Ten Sayings
Got these top ten sayings from Mark’s Site. I love em.
#10 Love people with they least expect it and least deserve
#9 Stop living as if the purpose of life is to arrive safely at death
#8 The church ought to be the most creative place on the planet
#7 The healthiest, happiest and holiest people on the planet are the people who laugh at themselves the most
#6 Irrelevance is irreverence
#5 Criticize by creating–Michelangelo
#4 Live as if today is the first day and last day of your life–Fredrick Buechner
#3 The greatest freedom is having nothing to prove
#2 There are ways of doing church that no one has thought of yet
#1 Don’t let what’s wrong with you keep you from worshipping what’s right with God
A few honorable mention:
#11 Your best thought about God on your best day falls 13.2 billion light-years short of how great and how good God really is!
#12 It’s not about what you can do for God. It’s about what God has done for you.
#13 God wants you to get where God wants you to go more than you want to get where God wants you to go!
#14 The greatest message deserves the greatest marketing
#15 Go after a dream that is destined to fail without divine intervention
Highlands Youth Podcast
Highlands Youth has a podcast again. You can find it here!
Please don’t send me a txt message! (you’ll have to listen to get it)
Continued…
Someone came up to me and asked how the message went because I never finished this post about.
So this is for you “Culligan Man”. I have since preached again, but first things first.
God was definitely all over that message just like I felt He was. I think numbers wise there were 5 recommitments to Christ and somewhere around 12-15 said they were tired of being “hypocrites” and wanted to stop being that way.
It was a great time and it felt great to be back involved in youth ministry. I also got the opportunity to play guitar and sing a song.
This past Sunday I got to preach again. I finished up the “Edges” series called destinations. Deborah had been preaching about different countries and how slavery still exist today. They learned about a 15 year old boy who is making a huge difference in the world and in slavery. They also talked about Islam and persecution.
The message I did was Destination “YOU”. It was basically about God created you to be you. It’s ok to be you. Be who he created you to be. Also challenged them to make a difference in the world. Either by doing something on a huge global scale or by just locally being someone’s bible. Stand up for what they believe in.
I think the 1st service was a little rough, but the second I did a little better. I heard on Monday from some parents that their kids really enjoyed me being up there. AGAIN… it was great to be involved in youth ministry!
I'm on a mission
I’m on a mission to get people at Highlands Fellowship to start blogging. So far I have reached Kim Anderson and Greg Coe.
One day my mission will be complete!
Oh yes!
Old Friend, New Blogger
Greg Coe is a very close friend of mine. That’s a way huge understatement. Let me describe him like this…
- He was my RA leader at my previous church when I was young (5 or 6)
- He always liked me because the first time I met him he asked me what I wanted to be and I said a rock star
- He never turned his back on me when I was busted, even though others did (debateable)
- Gave me guitar lessons
- Set my wife and I up on a blind date (obviously a success)
- Best man at wedding
- Godfather to my kids
- Was a key influencer in getting me a job @ Highlands (other than God and Ev of course)
So it is with great pleasure I introduce you to his blog! Check out his first post! He’s off to a great start. Love this line.
ok pretty deep stuff for the first time out of the box, but life is made up of things such as this…
Benefits of working late?
- I’m Jamming very loudly to my new Dave Matthews CD
- No interuptions
The reason I am working late:
My daughter had to get a shot today for Chicken Pox for school tomorrow and she wanted me to take her because last time I held her hand and she didn’t cry. I love being a Daddy! 🙂
Holy Carp! This is awesome (no that's not a typo)
Thanks Ev. YOU WERE RIGHT! This was awesome.

Best Mac Application
A friend of mine got a mac recently. He hasn’t used Mac OS in a very long time. He was asking me about applications that I use.
I told him about spirited away, Snapz Pro, Cyberduck, Bloglines Notifier, FCP Rescue, Mac the Ripper, Mediafork/handbrake, Monolingual, mpeg Streamclip, and Text Wrangler.
But I did not tell him about Quicksilver. I use quicksilver more than any application. It’s uses are really unlimited. Check out this link to 43folders for any post related to Quicksilver, this is where I heard about it (and learned how to use it).
NEW BLOG NEW DAVE MATTHEWS
So I know have a new home for “A Day in the Life of a Lemon”. I have my own hosting so I can add features I wanted to add but couldn’t before due to hosting through wordpress.com. I haven’t blogged because I have been trying to get this site up and running. I am still having problems importing my old stuff.
But I just got the new Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds Live @ Radio City CD/DVD/T-shirt Pre-order and I couldn’t wait to blog about it!
I wanted to point out to that it doesn’t come out till tomorrow, but I got it a day early! I love it!
Listening to Bartender right now as I blog. Sounds like he’s changed some of the lyrics.
