Well, here I arrived earlier today in Huntsville, AL expecting to find the hot southern weather I’ve been bragging about for the last few weeks. It was 32 degrees when I landed…I’m not quite sure what this cold front is all about, but I’m determined to make the best of it. I’m here to meet [...]
Vantage Point
Krissy and I had a date night this evening and grabbed some dinner at Star of India…nothing like vegetable thali…and then we saw Vantage Point at Movies 14. Great flick. Suspenseful and intense, but not too much. I really enjoyed it. It keeps you guessing. Definitely check it out.
White Castle Run: Chicken Rings and Fish Nibblers.
That’s right, we did it. Last night, on the way back from our Oasis Indianapolis church plant meeting, Krissy, Becky Gritton, Andrea Walters, John Eicher Jr (aka Houlihan John), and myself made a spontanteous stop at White Castle in Kokomo. While driving by the restuarant Becky, John, and Andrea all commented that they had never [...]
Writing…
I’ve really been desiring to write a lot lately. I’m about 30 plus pages into my first book, which isn’t a ton, but it’s a start and I’ve had trouble blocking out sufficient time to work on it. I’ve also got a few articles, etc, that are really pressing on me that I just haven’t [...]
Every now and then, they actually mean it…
I tend not to believe the weatherman. I mean, most of the time they are false prophets of biblical proportions. Not today. Apparentely, when they said 6-9 inches of snow,…they meant it. WOW! It’s a winter wonderland out there. This is why I call the Michiana area “Artica”. Good luck finding your car today!
Oh, and [...]
Oprah, Church Planting, and Donations
So I’ll be man enough to admit it…on occasion, I watch Oprah. Please note, the majority of the time it’s with my wife, but yeah I watch it. But it doesn’t make me cry, it makes me mad. Not mad at Oprah, but mad that I’m not doing this stuff, and instead, I’m at home [...]
Catching Up: All the things that I’ve forgotten to blog about…
Alright, here is the rundown of significant and insignificant news that I normally would have blogged about, but due to all that we’ve been through lately, and for whatever other reason, I didn’t….in no particular order.
1.) Oasis Staff/MTL’s/Trustee Christmas Party – We went to Papa Vino’s, had a great dinner, a hilarious White Elephant Gift [...]
Back From the Dead…
What a day…for the second time this week we’ve had doctors allude to us that Krissy was in eminent danger, this time, it caused us to drive 3 hours to the doctors in Indianapolis. And although it was really inconvenient, I’m glad we went because it’s settled. There was an inconclusive test that she had [...]
Exciting News for 2008!
I just can’t wait till 2008! As a church, we’ve got a ton of exciting things for us and I’m believing this is going to be our “breakout” year. I’ve been thinking a lot lately about our vision and direction, specifically for 2008, but also how that fits our overall plan and I feel like [...]
Snow Day Adventure
Well we got about 7-10 inches of snow last night. Not the biggest snowfall ever, but pretty significant. Jerry Grieser was supposed to come in to teach from out of town, but the toll road was down to only one lane traffic, which would have delayed him to the point of missing the service. A [...]
