On the road again...

I'm heading to Ohio this evening... driving to Salt Fork State Park for a church leaders seminar.

The lodge at Salt Fork is a beautiful place!

My dad is speaking and he asked my brother Chad and me to join him for the sessions. I'm looking forward to this. It's the first time all 3 of us have participated in a session at the same time.

I'm also looking forward to spending some time at the seminar. My friend, Mike Kjergaard, is speaking as well. The last time I saw Mike was when he was preaching a revival at Matt Sullivan's church in Shoals, IN. We were able to get together and play 9 holes of golf.

Should be a lot of fun!! =)
Although I doubt that the snow will allow us to play golf!!

Q & A

Thought I would try to get to know you better by asking random questions from time to time... so here is the first:

What do you usually eat for lunch?

I'm looking forward to your responses! =)

What to do in an airport terminal lock-down...

What do you do?

Why you sing of course!!

I thought this video was cool...

Monday Musings...

It's the first Monday of 2010!!!

After a great time of visiting family for the holidays, I'm anxious to get back into a "regular" routine. I'm actually looking forward to this new start. Before I've never paid much attention to the "newness" of the new year... but this year is different for me. I'm excited to see what is in store for 2010.

Doesn't the year 2010 sound too futuristic? It's like we are living in a science-fiction novel.

Yesterday I preached on how to read the Bible. I have challenged our church to read the New Testament in 30 days. It's a tough challenge, but I think it will be good for those of us who can accomplish this goal. (I'm going to be posting some thoughts and observations from each days' reading on this blog.)

I had 5 Guys on Saturday!! So good...

It is so much quieter around the office since Jason is not here. Yesterday was the first Sunday without our youth minister. It was different, but we made it through.

I'm traveling to Salt Fork State Park later this week to take part in the Church Leadership Seminar that my dad's ministry is hosting. It will be a fun time as my brother Chad and I will be joining dad for a couple sessions.

It's going to be a busy week!

Hope you have a great Monday!!!

Monday Musings...

I had a wonderful Christmas with my family. The only bad thing about this Christmas was that my nephew Malachi did not feel well. But other than that, it was a good visit with my family.

My favorite gift was probably my new Nike golf glove. =) lol I can't wait to try it out!!

I visited the Christian Church of Jasper on Sunday morning. Very glad to hear my friend Darrel Land preach. Plus, they had church "in the round" yesterday. Neat experience having the stage set up in the middle of the room with the chairs all around.

Then I travelled to Indianapolis and watched the Colts vs. Jets!! My friend, Mark Bulleit, had an extra ticket and so I was able to meet his family at the game.

Funny thing about yesterday's game is that my mom and dad were also at the game. Their seats were slightly better... 4th row, 50 yard line. =)

The first half was great... but I was very frustrated in the second half of the game. I do understand the thinking behind resting your starters so that they will be healthier for the playoffs... but don't take them out until you have full control of the game... especially when you have a PERFECT record!!! We are talking about NFL history that was thrown away yesterday.

Anyway... I had a blast, other than being upset by the Colts not playing to win.

Indianapolis also experienced a snow storm during the game. It's always fun to drive when 70,000 people are leaving... at the same time... in a snow storm. =) lol

All in all, I've had a very exciting holiday season. Now to get back to work so I can get some rest. ha ha

Have a great Monday!
