Sunday Night Reflections

What a week! We kicked it off with a church-wide day of prayer and fasting on Monday, and on Tuesday, things began to happen that let us know why God called us to pray and fast the day before: the Trejos lost their infant grand daughter and my mother-in-law was diagnosed with cancer. It been a tough week, all right, but God is bigger than any of our problems.

Don't forget to sign up for one of the small groups which will begin on Wednesday, February 25th. Don't wait too long to sign up because we will cap off the groups before they get too big. If that happens, you may end up in a group that wasn't your first choice. If you want to sign up before Sunday, contact me and let me know which group you would like to attend: The Life You've Always Wanted; If You Want to Walk on Water, You've Got to Get Out of the Boat; The Purpose-Driven Life; or Nooma.

I saw Fireproof with my family tonight. It's just a good story. I'm glad my wife got to see it with me tonight. The first time I saw it, I was with Ryan and Joey. It just wasn't the same.

Have a great week! May it be blessed and filled with joy!

She spoke directly to me and said, “Your wife’s on the phone, and it sounds serious.” I ran into the office, took the phone, and heard my wife say, “I don’t know what happened, but your brother is on life support in a hospital in Austin.”  Twelve hours later, my father and I were sharing a room in a hotel on I-35 in Austin. My sister-in-law, Sandy, and her six-year-old daughter, Araceli, were in a room across the hall. I hardly slept that night. I would doze off and suddenly wake up to my father crying and calling out my brother’s name.  My brother was dead. Osiel had collapsed that morning while his h...

Try not to laugh too hard

So we finally gave in and bought a Wii. It turns out that it's a lot of fun. Unfortunately, my kids were having fun at my expense. I was trying out the boxing and had no idea Bethany was video taping me. The jerky movement at the end of the clip is Bethany shaking because she was laughing so hard.

Happy Anniversary!

Today is the one-year anniversary of the beginning of this blog. I started blogging on June 9, 2007 with this post . One year later, I'm still enjoying blogging about what's going on at Solid Rock Church, and linking to other interesting blogs and articles, as well as blogging about some of my thoughts and reflections related to Solid Rock and the church world in general. I know I have a few readers out there, so as long as there are three of you reading this blog, I guess I'll keep it going. And remember, comments are always welcomed!
