Our topic at youth group last night was choosing faith. What a wonderful example of what we spoke of last night. Do you have the faith that God will carry you? Do you have the faith that he will keep you during the hard times? Do you let him drive or are you in the one in control? This is about a father and a son.....what a wonderful example of the type of relationship that God wants us to have with him...Enjoy....

What do you do when....
This was such a classic moment in our house...I asked Ashley (our 9 year old) what she should do when confronted by a stranger....she looked at me with all certainty and said, "STOP - DROP - and ROLL!".

The vision of God carrying us.....
Last night at youth group we spoke on "when bad things happen." The youth were challenged about the bad things that happen to us and why God allow's them to happen. Through that discussion this video was used to illustrate something powerful. When those things in life have us down and we simply don't have the power to cross the line...God asks us to put our arms around him so HE can carry us across...Enjoy...
The true spirit of humanity...
Our humanity will not be defined by the politicians coming into office or the random act of social policy meant to appease some social group. Humanity is the act of one persons decision to do a selfless act. To lift up instead of tear down...Enjoy as you witness humanity as it was meant to be....

Last Stand of the Parents....
There we were....the children were fighting....the yelling had increased from a low toned hum to a loud rumble of a locomotive. I was clearly getting upset and my wife's blood pressure was starting to rise and her facial expression started to develop a red tint. We started to snap at each other until something happened....something incredible...words of wisdom that can only be matched with with t
he wisdom that Master Yoda spout to aspiring Jedi. My wife looked at me and said, "honey, we can't snap at each other....we have to stay together...it's us against them....and THEY CAN'T WIN!" That's right people...as parents we're in charge not the children! It's important to let them know that as parents we can't be divided....that we're the one's who make the rules! That we....oh...gotta run....Megan wants me to run her bath...bye...http://kingdomoftheabsurd.blogspot.com/
