I'm at Westmont this week

"Most of us live in Christian neutral, cause if you do something
right, God is given the credit, but if you do something wrong, it's
your fault, so we play it safe and do nothing so that we make sure we
don't do anything wrong. Christianity has become more Buddhist than
Christian."

"You don't have to do the right thing all the time. You just have to
make sure what you're doing you're doing for the right reasons. God
can fix up our messes when we make them. He's good at that."

"Create the future."

Managing Summer Media with kids

No more homework, baseball practices, or rigid bedtimes. And, if your house is like my house, no more obvious rules about when media can be on and off. This is a dream for my kids. To me, it often feels nightmarish trying to get them to tune out of their media and tune into the real world.Free Blog about Kids and Media - Common Sense Media Blog

GoFest Opening Night, The Lord's Prayer in Asia

It's always so amazing when performances pull together. The little picture doesn't capture the beauty of how each segment and group was orchestrated with minimal rehearsals (one afternoon on the stage for all 4 dances for the week).

It wasn't flawless, but I want to say that as a person who best worships God through beauty and my senses, this was the most satisfying corporate worship moment I've had in a very long time. Thank you for all you work to give us a taste of the asian aspect of heaven!

Habakkuk 2:14
For the earth will be full of the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
