Monday, February 5th, 2007

Greetings from the lobby of the soon to be famous Lambuth Inn at Lake Junaluska, NC. Just finished up a Ski Weekend with a few hundred crazy kids! I don’t think I have ever been at an event when Satan and his demons were more at work. The leadership of the event and I [...]

Happy 2007!!!

Monday, January 15th, 2007

We just got back in from Philly. Well, we never actually did anything in PA except fly in and out of there. I say we cause this was one of those trips that Leslie wanted to tag along on. So we flew into Philadelphia and then drove 3 hours to Hackettstown, NJ; the home [...]

Texas is a Really Big Place…

Friday, July 28th, 2006

Greeting from the Super8 in Pleasanton, Texas… the only hotel for miles. This is another one of those “lets go hang out at Walmart” towns. The week started with me speaking at the morning worship services of FBC Pleasanton. I always feel like a I am twelve when I speak in a traditional church. [...]

I Found the Middle of Nowhere!

Wednesday, June 7th, 2006

What a week! After flying back to Kansas City just 25 hours after leaving there and driving what seemed like 3 hours just past nowhere in Missouri. I came to a pretty solid recognition. I was REALLY sick. I pretty much have had no voice, and no energy. I think it was Tuesday that I [...]

The 4 nights we had in McMinn county, TN for our Infuse event were amazing. Thanks to “Bond”, Allen and the rest of the community that got behind this event. Abandon from the Lone Star State was the band for this Infuse. They did a killer job connecting with students and taking us to the [...]

Hangin with Bucky in Kentucky….

Sunday, March 19th, 2006

Kentucky, the bluegrass state. I did not see any bluegrass, or hear any, much to my relief. Leslie and I went up for an area wide youth rally for the Christian Churches in southern, KY. We had a great time in Campbellsville. The rally was a good time! Some great youth workers put [...]
