Last.fm

Music

So i’m checking out this new social app called Last.fm.  Basically it takes your iTunes listening record and shares it with the world so people know what you listen to.  Also it recommends other artists based on the style of the artists you listen to.  I’m excited to see what comes from this.  Anyways check out my user and add me as a friend.

No he didn't!

Cool God Stuff ministry

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!

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?

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! 🙂
