Mind Dump:
- I decided at about 10:30pm last night to run a half marathon (13.1 miles) with my dad and brother this morning. I beat my last time by 6 minutes…but I am SORE. In vegas, I wasn’t sore at all…Austin has hills. Plus I haven’t been training any the last two months. Not the best idea ever, but I’m just glad I did well.
- Missed the first service for the marathon, but the 2nd and 3rd services ROCKED today.
- We had Ferret filling in for Jacob on lead guitar again today. Let me just say this. THAT GUY FREAKING ROCKS.
- We wrapped up the message series “Baggage” today. The past 4 Sundays have been some of the most powerful I can ever remember at The Connection Church. Great job team!
- The third service was NOISY with kids today. Friends, seriously, take your kids to their age appropriate ministry area at church. Your toddler doesn’t understand anything Cole is talking about in the service. They get nothing out of it. Except for how to make the most noise possible with an ink pen and a metal chair. We care wayyyyy too much about our kids to bore them to death at church each week, so take them where they belong. Plus, you’ll be able to focus on the service rather than having to wrangle your kid for an hour.
- Speaking of how much we care about kids, the new series is called “Kiddos!” It is going to be AWESOME! Check it out and send everyone you know an EVITE by going HERE.
- Someone is going around our subdivision stealing things out of cars. Several people in the church have had things taken, including us. Whoever is doing it, Jesus loves you, and I love you, but if I catch you, I am going to hit you in the leg with a baseball bat. Hard.
- Couper is getting tooth number 7. How many more? Long week ahead.
- One of my closest buddies, Ben Branam, shared some stuff with me this week that rocked my world. I’ll be sharing it with you this week…
- Cole just called me (at 10:30pm) and asked me if I moved a cabinet back in place that goes in the cafeteria at the school. Random Cole. Funny Cole.
- Wayne and Mari (thanks Maria, spelling!) Bryant are moving to Las Vegas Nevada tomorrow. They’ll be gone for 18 months. I have known the Bryants for longer than most people at our church because they were members at my last church. They hold a special place in my heart! I’ll miss their 4 giggling girls bad. Please pray for them as they make the long nasty drive starting tomorrow!
- Anyone got any good new music they are listening to?
