Titus

April 2, 2008 in Family Ministry 1

Well i finished 2 Timothy yesterday and basically it was Paul’s last words to Timothy. You know what he said:

PREACH THE WORD

You know its funny and I mean funny, not like the sarcastic word for troubling, that I spend alot of my time with the tech stuff now but Paul reiterates that Timothy will have trouble but preach the word kid, preach the word.

Do I lose focus with the tech stuff? sometimes

Do I put alot of work into the presentation? yeah so did God look at the temple He wanted

Where should my focus be? The word and people.

I thank God for my experience with UPS. With all of the awesome things that go along with loading boxes plus the fact that I get people that are assigned to me to learn from me. It was so much more than the ugly process. I taught people and that is what was most fulfilling to me.

I pray that my focus would be to reach the volunteers and the kids for Christ. I want to fulfill what Paul told Timothy be about the Word and make a difference for people. Stay focused young one, stay focused.

Memphis is in the Final Four

Honestly i told people they would lose just because I have seen the lovefest with UCLA and the domination of UNC and after the butt whipping we put on Michigan State I just figured we would come out for our road game and get out of our gameplan and the refs wouldn’t give us any calls and we would go home again.

BUT

we completely dominated Texas, our pg was better than theirs, and Joey Dorsey is now a beast that wants to win and that spells trouble for the teams in front of us.

Now we are the favorite to win it all supposedly? Can you talk about how bad we are and then completely change your mind and pretend you were on the Memphis bandwagon for the whole trip?

No!! So ESPN and CBS except for Clark Kellog and Gumby (I mean Gumbel) don’t pick us to win. You didn’t pick us to even beat PITT some even had us losing to Mississippi State.

Now we are making free throws. 30-36 against Texas (83.3%) and 26-35(74.5%) so we are ready and we have been looking to the final four all year. We don’t care about anything else except winning it all and that might be what puts us over the top.

I’m ready to spank UCLA and watch for the blatant pushes and no calls on Collison when he fouls Rose it will happen.

Children’s Ministry Vision

April 1, 2008 in Family Ministry 1

I have been out of working in any kind of ministry for about 6 months before I moved to SC. The reasons were because I didn’t want the kids in the church that we moved to as a family to be left hanging by a guy that was only there to teach them until the next step in his life. I also didn’t know when that step would take place.

Now I am involved and plugged in again and better than anything else I am doing it full time.

I went to two meetings today, one was with the Children’s ministry team and the vision that they have for the future and how we are going to be set up as a team to effectively minister and another was a blueprint meeting where numerouse people gather to discuss everything that is needed for a large event.

The event that we discussed was: The Summer day camp for kids (VBS). I love that time the kids are pumped, the volunteers are pumped, and as I learned today there is so much work involved. Guess what? I get to be a part of it.

I am just so humbled by what God Himself has placed me in the middle of. I am so incredibly psyched about what is going on and the direction we are going. Look out world and parents Brookwood is going to make a huge impact on your kids and they will love Jesus more than you ever thought possible if we do our parts to honor God with our efforts.

I CAN’T WAIT!!!

bring it on kids I’m ready for ya hahaha
