Just got home from band practice. It was great! I am really excited about our student worship service this week. Our team that went to Ecuador will share with their fellow students how God worked, how their life has been changed, and why other students should do missions. It will be powerful. I think it [...]
Busy Weekend and Sad Weekend
We have such a talented group of students at FBC! Many have had their end of the year performances this week. On Thursday night, we went to go see Matthew Olseon perform in Grease over in Valley, AL. Last night, we went to go see a lot of our girls that are in the ballet [...]
Last Night Was Great!
We had an incredible night at church last night. Our band was smoking! We played Happy Day (one of my personal faves) with the “official” drum loop in the background, Forever, Let Me Sing (off the new Northpoint live cd), Mighty To Save, and Famous One.
Our message last night was called “Worry Wart.” The mp3 [...]
Discipline and other Tuesday thoughts
My project in my personal life right now is discipline. Spiritual discipline and physical discipline. Spiritually, my goal is to get up earlier and do my quiet times early in the morning. I’ve come to realize how important it is to have your quiet time early. Before I interact with my wife. Before I interact [...]
Weekend Update
Okay, first of all, Medieval Times was hilarious on Saturday night. Everything is medieval themed. Your server is called a wench. Anytime you can call someone a wench and get away with it is always great. The food they serve is pretty good, but they serve it with no silverware. You get a bowl of [...]
Goin’ To Medieval Times
I’m really excited about tonight. Two of my best friends and our wives are going to Medieval Times in Atlanta to collectively celebrate our 30th birthdays. I’ve always wanted to go to Medieval Times. I’ve heard its lots of fun. Basically, you go to a castle, eat a medieval dinner, and watch medieval knights on [...]

The Rest Of Monday
We had a great day yesterday! We went to Pompano Joe’s for lunch. That is one of my favorite places to eat lunch in Destin. The amberjack sandwich is always good. The restaurant is right on the beach, so the view is beautiful.
We took several pictures on the beach after lunch. It was waaaaaay to cold [...]
