Family News

Check out some cool stuff that is happening with my family.

My brother is currently competing in the National Laser Quest Tournament in Atlanta, GA. I was unable to make the event because of church and school related activities. In the last text message I received from him, he had placed 4th in a practice game before the real competition. I can't describe how good that is.

My niece played a soccer game today (she is 4). She called to tell me that she actually kicked the ball once.

My sister and brother-in-law are continuing to mature and develop into crucial leaders at their church in Nashville. Missy is all but running the children's department and Andy is a prominent figure in the youth department and an integral part of the media team. They are a relatively new family at the church, but God has provided wonderful opportunities for them to be used. I am so proud of them.

My mom recently worked hard at throwing a surprise party for my sister and it was so special. She is still the glue the holds everything together and when I reflect on the unmerited blessings God has given me, and there are many, mom is at the top of the list.

My sister-in-law is doing everything imaginable. Name it, she is doing it. I will have more info on a project I am working with her on soon.

Andi (my wife) is even busier than I. She works so hard, but she is also beginning a discipleship course where she will be leading other ladies through an Elisabeth Elliot book. She is also taking a course at the seminary on the books of Judges and Ruth, as well as developing an increased interest in racquetball. I still can't believe I wake up next to her each day!

I thank God for my family.
