Sunday Night Reflections

Wow! This rain has been amazing. We took a trip to San Antonio and Corpus Christi this weekend, and it rained most of the time we were on the road. I really do like rainy days. This is exactly the kind of weather I like to have on my birthday. Too bad it isn't my birthday!

Tonight, we started a three-part video teaching by Dave Ramsey. In this first session, Dave taught "The Basics of Biblical Finance". Great stuff! Looking forward to the next two weeks of this teaching.

I spoke this morning about being devoted to the teaching of God's Word, and being devoted to fellowship. One of the ways you can show devotion to fellowship is by being a part of a small group. If you haven't sign up for a small group for the fall semester, do it soon. Small groups start Sept. 30.

This morning, I had the privilege of dedicating a baby to the Lord. That is absolutely one of my favorite things to do! I'm not sure the feeling was mutual.

Rain or shine, have a great week! See you Tuesday at the Mega Sports Camp!

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!
