Not sure what this even means…
I didn’t know the words
until I heard the song.
I didn’t know my place
until my place was gone.
I didn’t see the sunshine
until the night was long.
I didn’t know the words
until I heard the song.

Sarah Preps for Surgery
Sarah prepares this morning for bone graft surgery. The procedure will remove a mass from inside the bone that forms the tip of her left ring finger. Once this mass is removed, bone matter from forearm will be used to fill the void in her finger bone.
It's a routine operation that will take an hour to complete. She's scheduled to begin at around 9:30. We anticipate bringing her home by Noon.
I know she'd appreciate your prayers for an uneventful surgery.
My Monday (to the tune of the 12 days of christmas)
….ahem.
…5 hours of class.
4 movie clips
3 papers
2 rental decks
and a wife packing for her next trip.
Your Faith – Then and Now
I’m working on a project this summer…and I need your help. Would you be willing to take 1 minute and fill out the “Your Faith — Then and Now” survey located on the side bar of this page? It’s completely anonymous, and you don’t even have to navigate away from the page. Answering the 7 questions will really be helpful! And, if you’d really like to make it to my short list of favorite people, you can even share my quiz on your facebook or blog! =)
If you have any questions or suggestions, go ahead and leave then below…Thanks in advance!
my other blog
Rather than let all my research and reading sit in the dusty corners of my mind, I’ve decided to put together a running archive of bits of historical background, study tools, and other nuggets from my seminary career and my personal work. Mainly for my future reference, I’m hoping to open up what I’m learning and thinking about to everyone to encourage us all to dig deeper into the Scripture and unearth some truth that we can put in our back pockets.
I’m calling it BibleDig. For what it’s worth, it’s at http://bibledig.blogspot.com
valentine’s day
We celebrated our first Valentine’s Day as a team this weekend. Thanks to a full scholarship, Sarah and I were able to attend the Family Life Marriage conference at the plush Gaylord Texan Resort. Sessions on all things matrimonial got us talking about our relationship…and reminded me of what a lucky guy I am!
As if I hadn’t noticed that Sarah is way out of my league already, a local Christian radio station manager who knows Sarah through her work was quick to ask how “a guy like you could land a woman like her.” Thanks. I needed that. And I was even using my out-in-public manners! The nerve!
The Gaylord was a relaxing backdrop to the weekend. The centerpiece of the hotel is a 10 story tall atrium roofed entirely with glass. Winding paths are lined with live growing plants, and an indoor river almost tricks you into thinking you’re outside – if you close your eyes. Just don’t walk with your eyes closed, or you’ll smack into some type of tall tropical tree. Trust me.
If we sound overly impressed with the venue, it’s not our fault. We’re only comparing it to some of our past great V-Day locales including:
So, not driving through snow storms to see each other in rundown Oklahoma border towns automatically made this the best Valentine’s ever. Plus, we laughed, write each other love letters, I bought Sarah a puppy, and we spent 3 whole days together. Not bad.
Sometimes we still can’t believe we’re married…and we get to see each other everyday! That radio guy was on to something….How did a guy like me end up having it so good?
