Easter at Solid Rock Church

Every year, the most exciting day for me is Easter Sunday. I get so excited when Easter comes around because of the opportunity we have to celebrate Jesus' resurrection! Can you imagine how hopeless our lives would be if it weren't for Jesus' resurrection? I enjoy the entire season: recalling his last few days before he was arrested, tortured, and crucified, and, of course, his resurrection from the dead.

Another reason I really like Easter is because of the opportunity to reach people who don't normally attend church. Many people are open to an invitation to go to church on Easter. We are being irresponsible if we don't step out and invite someone to come to church with us on Easter Sunday.

So start thinking and praying about who you can invite to Easter at Solid Rock Church on April 12. It's going to be an exciting day.

The Day Our World Changed

November 13, 1989. 11:30 AM I had just finished my lunch in the teacher's workroom and was walking back to my classroom. I was teaching at San Jacinto Elementary in San Angelo, Texas at the time. Up until then, it had been a typical November day. As I walked past the school office, the door swung open, and a fellow teacher stepped out with a look of concern on her face. 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!
