I Have A Dream....

Today the kids and I are home because of the MLK Holiday. They have had some good homework projects focussed on the life and work of MLK. I am very glad my kids are growing up learning about Dr. King and his dream.

A little over three years a go Syndie and I sat down and recorded some dreams we had of doing church in a differnt way. We have felt that God is calling us to look at and live out these dreams in some new and practical ways in 2006.

Curious what there are? Look here...

I am not big on jumping in on every passing internet fad BUT.....

This is supposable national delurking week. It is a time for anonymous readers to let me know who they are for curiosity sake.

So if you are inclined post a comment that gives me your name, location, and maybe why you visit, or whatever information you feel would justify a comment.

Thanks

It is 50 degrees and sunny! Hard to believe the calendar says January 12th.

I want to say a word about the Message Bible and Navpress who publishes it. A couple of years a go Syndie and I bought copies of the Message Re-Mix. It was the whole message Bible in a compact size that was handy to carry around. Somewhere along the way we both ended up breaking the binding on our Bibles. It did not make them unusable but not 100%. I noticed that there was a replacement gurantee on the inside page. I called the 1-800 number explained the problem, mailed in the copyright page from both Bibles and yesterday we received two brand new copies of the Message Re-mix. It nice to get replacement for free. So buy a Message Bible and give a good workout because if it breaks they replace it for free.

Cold, wet, dreary, weather....

It has been a yucky weather here as of late. The dampness has been giving me some serious stiffness in my back and ankle.

Two more days before the kids go back to school. They are all ready to go back. It has been a nice break but it is time to go back.

Last night Syndie and I were able to watch another Piston's game. The won again!! The Piston's have the best record right now in the NBA.

I have a little person waiting to use the computer.
