Yes, That's the Book for Me

I went to a group bible study tonight. This is exciting for me, and I want to share so I make the commitment to go each week. We started with dinner at the Pita Pit in Cedar Falls. Delicious! I was nervous to go, as I thought I would only know one person. Turns out a friend from a few college classes was also there. Anyhow, we then went a person's home for the study. We're studying Revelation, which isn't the easiest to join midway. As we read I recognized a few verses as the text for a song I sang in college. It's crazy how a tune will come to your mind when you read familiar words. The bible verse from camp set to Indiana Jones pops into my head multiple times in a week. I thought I would share with you a few of the verses that we read tonight.

"Great and marvelous are your deeds,
Lord God Almighty.
Just and true are your ways,
King of the ages.
Who will not fear you, O Lord,
And bring glory to your name?
For you alone are holy.
All nations will come
and worship before you,
for your righteous acts have been revealed." Revelation 14: 3-4

I Saw the Sign

Mission #1

Objective: Debra will watch and enjoy the movie signs.

Materials:

• Signs VHS (Old School!)
  
• VCR
• TV
• Popcorn
• Other people so she does not have to watch it alone

Procedure:

1. Mention the movie to Debra at Lifelight (CHECK!)
2. Watch the movie again myself to make sure this is a viable mission. (In progress!)
3. Mail Debra the VHS or Invite her over when she least expects it.
4. Gather remaining materials.
5. Prepare to be creeped out!

Conclusion: This movie is awesome, though it is not as good once you know how it ends. Even still, I am still sufficiently creeped out each time I watch it.

Soli Deo Gloria

Over one hundred thousand people attended Lifelight on Saturday alone. I was one of them. It had been a few years since I was last able to attend. Two years ago I was out of the country, and last year my dear friend from high school got married over Labor day. It was great to be back. things were a little different this year. Rather than have our goal be to touch the stage for the main concert, we took lawn chairs and found a good place to set up camp. It was very relaxing. I even stretched out on a blanket and took a nap on Sunday afternoon. My three favorite concerts were Matthew West, Sanctus Real, and Casting Crowns.
