Weekend

I had a great weekend, I had the privilege of being a host for The Revolve Tour.  It is the teen girl version of Women of Faith.  What an amazing weekend it was.  I had a blast!

While I was there I got to meet Natalie Grant, KJ 52, Hawk Nelson, Ayiesha Woods, Brie Reed and Chad Eastam and a host of other amazing people.  These people spent a lot of energy opening up their hearts, and lives and sharing their stories with these teenage girls.  They shared their struggles and heartaches and pain and most important they shared the hope they received through Christ and how He worked through each situation for their good.  Each one has an amazing story to share and I am sure that every girl heard something that ministered to them through the stories.  God was there and it was an amazing weekend!  

One of the highlights for me was meeting Sandi Patty.  I have admired her for a long time.  I feel she has an amazing talent, God has used her in incredible ways, she has an amazing voice!  It was such an honor to meet her!

I hope to be able to attend next year and serve again.  I enjoyed myself so much!

Ok, so my friend Tanya "tagged" me.  

So here is what I am supposed to do: 

The rules are... "simple".

• Pick up the nearest book of 123 pages or more. No Cheating!
  
• Find Page 123.
• Find the first 5 sentences.
• Post the next 3 sentences.
• Tag 5 people.

so, I looked around and at first glance found no books.  On my coffee table I found a book of Ethan's, a sports book but alas there was only 117 pages, so I went to my laptop bag and found the book I am trying to read called: "Rising from the Ashes  Rethinking Church"

So, page 123 sentences 6,7 &8 are:  

I think it's really important, that if we're going to say that what unites us is our common prayer, then we have to be faithful to the authorized text.  I don't think we can have it both ways.  One of the things we've said is we allow a wide spectrum of thoughts because we've not a confessional church.  

So, I guess I have to "tag" someone else......

I am not sure who else reads my family blog, so I guess that is all I will put...

Happy Birthday Ethan!

Ethan turned 8 today.  It's so hard to believe that he is 8 already.  It just seems like yesterday he was a baby learning to walk......

We had a pretty fun day.  We started with church, then he went to his best friend Kaden's house for a few hours and then home for a "Super Bowl/Birthday party" with friends.  

Here are a few pictures of him.........
