Good Men

Saturday, September 30th, 2006

We had our 2nd Elevation ManUp breakfast this morning. It was great. God is really bringing some great men to Elevation. They are smart, godly, loyal, generous, hard working, and sold out to the vision of Elevation.

Why didn’t I do it sooner, Part 2

Friday, September 29th, 2006

When I originally thought about this rhetorical question, I figured it could apply to any step of obedience. And I guess it could.

I had a wonderful day. One of those days where you’re so freakin’ tired at the end, but you can’t stop your mind from thinking so you lay in bed typing a blog entry even though it’s midnight and you’ve been running full speed for 4 days straight so you should be sleeping but you’re [...]

Let’s get this party started!

Monday, September 25th, 2006

My first official post on my official blog. Wow, ain’t I cool?!? And all of you who know my personality know that I don’t do anything halfway. So I’m excited to dive into this deal head first.
