Thanksgiving Week

I'm away with my family in the Smokey Mountains. We have spent the first few days staying at Ridgecrest (conference center) just east of Ashville. Wednesday we're going to drive into TN to visit Pathways Church in Sevierville, play in the mountains, & end up at my brother Dennis' home, just south of Ashville. We'll stay there the rest of the week - enjoying turkey & family.

Looking back over this last year, I have a lot to be thankful for. My family is growing & healthy, I love my wife more than ever, the LORD continues to grow me & bless me, & I have some friends who love me & I can absolutely trust...
This is the year that the LORD has made; I will rejoice in it & be glad!

I am getting pumped up about this weekend!

The Election is Over

I know it has been too long since I wrote anything for the blog. I've been staying current on Twitter & very busy with "life" - meetings with other pastors, leaders at WH727, projects, family, working out, finances, etc.

The election has passed - maybe your guy won or maybe he didn't. Maybe you're smiling ear to ear or you haven't stopped crying since the first results from FL or OH. No matter what side you are on, we all have a responsibility to pray for our country & our leaders.

There are many areas that our country needs to improve. Our leaders need God's wisdom to know the best strategies & decisions. They also need the courage to follow through on their decisions. And I think the biggest prayer request for our leaders & our country is a renewed soul - one that would embrace the same values of the LORD & then pursuit them at all costs.
