We’ve Got to Come Together, Part 1
Sunday was a day I was really looking forward to for a lot of reasons. I knew that we had a lot of things going on. Nicole E. got baptized. We started our new series on hospitality. We launched a fun summer initiative called the "Let’s Get Together" card where I’m using my first ever…

Kid’s Kamp is Koming
Just 2 more weeks and the church will be overrun by little campers. VBS, called Kid’s Kamp this year, will be every day from 9-12. But the past 3 has taught me that during this time I will get nothing done. And I’ll like it. It’s funny because I know I’ve been labeled the "doesn’t…

I’m happy that they’ve completed this step of…

How much sound?
I’ve been wanting to do this for the past several months, so I finally headed over to the local Radio Shack and picked up this wonder. Now I just have to do a little research about "condusive decibel levels for modern worship." The aim here is that our sound guys would use the meter to…

Romeo on Primetime
I got an e-mail this morning from my mom telling me she had seen Romeo on Primetime last night. I’m still looking for the video of the show, but I did read the story on their website. One day, there will be some stories about this day from my students that have not yet been…

Cedarville guys at Romeo
This weekend we’re playing hosts to the Cedarville University Jackets racing team. Basically, these are engineering students who design, build, and race a F-1 car. I hoping to run over to the Ford Proving Grounds a few miles away and check them out later today.
