Here is something you don't find everyday: a good cd for FREE! You can download Phil Wickham's album "Singalong" legally and for free from his website. He recorded the project as a freebie to give away. It's incredible; just a guy, his guitar, and some friends singing together. I've had the cd for over a month now, and I love it.
This is Matt. Matt can be seen in a previous post
looking super cool in his black suit coat. Here he
is wearing a mask and staring down his pet praying mantis.
Don't ask.

outside my office waiting to be in our student video.
This last week was great. Wednesday night, as part 3 of our 4 part series entitled "The Series on the Family", I spoke to the middle school students about honoring and obeying their parents. The students seemed to really be paying attention, so that was encouraging. In more recent news, the video of the students talking about why they love their parents was completed today and will be shown at the middle school family luncheon next Sunday. If you're curious, I will youTube the video in the next couple weeks so you can all check it out if you'd like. It's hilariously incredible.
Friday night was the middle school all-nighter. There were 70 7th-8th students in attendance which was awesome! Probably 30 of the 70 were visitors so it was great chance to meet new people. We went ice skating, played laser tag, and went to an indoor soccer facility (For some reason I feel like I mentioned those places in a past post. If I did forgive me. If I didn't, call me paranoid.) I officially am not a good ice skater, but I sing a killer chicken dance song if you don't have the song on cd but a bunch of students still want to do the dance*. Additionally, I am not what one would desribe as "stealthy" in the laser tag arena, but I get the job done even if it requires pistol whipping unsuspecting opponents in the head. Lastly, instead of playing soccer, I played football with some of the students, and I'm pretty sure that the 4 girls that played with all the guys were the 4 best football players on the whole field. One of the girls, Brianna, had 2 interceptions and played the most intense free safety I have ever seen in two-hand-touch football. All in all, the whole event went without a hitch.
*I use the term "dance" here very liberally. Even the part of the dance historically characterized by an enthusiastic shaking of the ol' bon-bon, was replaced by a conservatively elegant** rotating of the trunk of the body with an accompanying arm movement likened closely to the actions of someone pretending to run in place at an incredible rate.
** I also use the term "elegant" here very liberally.

Hahaa...wow...that was entertaining! "Shaking your bon-bon!" Im looking forward to seeing the honor your parents video at the luncheon. Its really neat that you are covering that aspect of life because it is so important right now and even into when they get married. The way you treat your parents is eventually how you will treat your spouse. : )
kevin...you may not get 30 comments on your blog...however...people do leave you stinking long ones (see last post).
as far as rachel's post...shaking your bon bon?....and i think you should honor your parents just because you should, and its nice, and God says so...forget the whole "its the way you will treat your spouse..." i hope that my relationship with my spouse is nothing like that of my parents...that would just be too weird.
stay on your knees and in the Word my brother. caleb
forgive me, I failed to mention that obeying your parents is good because youre ultimatley obeying God but it is good practice for marriage because I will stay away from guys who disrespect their parents--if it leads to marriage I will be on the other end of that disrespect...that's all I meant. Its a submission issue ultimately to God.
