Marriage

I came across this verse today and for some reason it just stuck out. The Lord said to me, "Go, show your love to your wife again..." Hosea 3:1. Now, if you've ever read Hosea you know that his wife was not the most faithful person in the world. However, God tells Hosea to go home and show love to his wife. Let that verse sink in just a second. And women, reverse that verse so it says, women go home and show love to your husband. How many times do we intentionally try and show love to our spouse? Usually, when we want something. The strength of marriages in our world today is about as strong as a cheap deodorant...it just won't last very long. What would your marriage look like if you actively pursued your spouse with love every single day? Try it!

It's Go Time!!!

The permit is finally here. Now it's time to go to work so we can get in our new facility as fast as possible. When will we be in? Good question. If you see P. Weese, hug his neck and give him a bottle of Tylenol, since he's been doing all the leg work on this project. Way to go Weeser!!!

Funny Video!

Look out Carrie Underwood...this video rocks!

District Champs!!!

District Champs...two years in a row. That's not too shabby! Last year they went undefeated and this year they only lost one game. We defeated the Weiner Cardinals last night 24 to 20 to seal the deal. Micah was pumped...and so were her parents!

Maddie the Baller!

27.6 pts. per game

11.4 rebounds per game

10 assists per game

2.5 steals per game

3.1 blocks per game

I know what you're thinking...but it never hurts to dream! Madison is playing in the 3rd grade league at Brookland and lovin' it. Plus, she's wearing a headband like I did way back in the day, so that's awesome!

Stage & Children's Room

The stage is in phase 1, but it's starting to come together. Also, the other picture is from the upstairs Children's area. I'm throwing up these pictures so you can watch the progress. See ya!

Live Right...or Die!

Each year I resolve to read thru the Bible. My goal is to read a different version each year. This year I am reading thru the KJV. So, if I say something like..."art thou goeth to lunch today? Peradventure I shall goeth with you." You'll know why I'm talking like that. Anyway, I was reading the story of Joseph the other day and something strange jumped out at me. In the middle of the Joseph story (chapter 38) it breaks off to give us some info. on his brother Judah. Judah marries a Canaanite woman and she gives birth to 3 sons. Er, Onan & Shelah. Weird names huh? Er was wicked in the sight of the Lord, so guess what God did? He slew him...killed him. Judah wanted Onan to get his brother Er's wife pregnant but Onan didn't want to. Onan had relations with her but the Bible says, "he spilled it on the ground." It's in the Bible, I'm not making this up. So what happened to Onan? God was displeased with him so he slew him...yeah, he killed him. You can fool some people some of the time but you can never fool God. If you're displeasing God...look out! How did God kill them? I don't know, but this is a stern warning to please God. We worry so much about pleasing man, but God is the one we should worry about. Wow, I hope you're living right!
