Monday Update #6


Where am I now?  On the couch watching the Food Network... my new favorite!  

How was last week?  It was a crazy week, but ended with some really good down-time.  Here are some highlights: (1) Youth Group bonfire on Wednesday!  It was a great time.  I still have a bruise from the game, "Savage Women," we played.  (2) I got really organized at work as far as our programming goes and I'm excited to implement our planning and evaluation stuff I made.  (3) Palm Sunday was cool and unconventional!  Pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey game and fun-noodles instead of palm branches! (4) Kaitlin and I did mostly nothing on Saturday, which is unheard of for us... it was so nice!

What is God teaching me right now?  Connect with Him to receive grace! Also, stop striving to be perfect by my own strength for the wrong reasons!

What am I excited for this week?  (1) House/dog-sitting the in-laws' pets.  (2) Passover experience at Youth Group on Wednesday.  (3) Good Friday. (4) Easter!!!! (5) Oh, ya... it's my birthday tomorrow!

What is something random from the last week?  Bought 14 cents worth of yogurt at Yogurtland ... old news if you read my blog regularly, but still funny and random!

What music have I been enjoying recently?  HSM & Wildside CD still.

What books am I reading?   Finished Refuel by Dough Fields the other day. 

What am I reading in God's Word? John and the other gospels for the passion story and events surrounding the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ!

How can I reach others this week? Challenging people to think about Easter, and think HARD!!
