Happy New Year! (Almost)

Well it is almost time for 2008! My how fast this past year has gone by. We have had a lot of challenges this year but at the end of it we are feeling really good about the coming new year. We will probably do the usual tonight. Fall asleep around 10:30 PM, wake up an hour later, watch the ball drop, kiss each other good night, and go back to sleep. Here's to everyone out there in blog land, hope you all have a safe, blessed and happy new year!

Happy Birthday Jesus!

I cannot think of a better way to celebrate Christmas than to see 179 people come to Christ @ Southbrook in ONE NIGHT. (and almost 1100 for the year) Praise His Holy Name! Merry CHRISTmas everyone and a big shout out to Rob. You and the whole mighty Southbrook staff, lay leaders, and volunteers ROCK!


I know 2008 is gonna be a great year and my family and I are so excited to be witnesses to what God has in store for us.

Holiday Greetings for All!

Although both political parties are equally represented in our household we agreed that this is pretty funny.

To All My Democrat Friends: Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all. I also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2008, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make America great. Not to imply that America is necessarily greater than any other country nor the only America in the Western Hemisphere. Also, this wish is made without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wishee.

To My Republican Friends: Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
