We met the Duggars at Silver Dollar City! They have 18 Children and have a show on the Discovery Channel documenting their life. Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar are such an example of patience and Christian Character. We only saw 8-10 of their kids. Their were more of them spread throughout the park. Check out their website at www.duggarfamily.com Between the 2 of us we have 20 children. Hopefully being so close to them in these pictures didn't cause the baby having spirit to jump on us.
Here is an awesome quote from the president of amazon.com regarding innovation.
Jeff Bezos, founder and CEO of Amazon.com as quoted on BusinessWeek.com (April 17, 2008)
I believe you have to be willing to be misunderstood if you’re going to innovate. That’s actually a serious point. If you’re going to do something that’s never been done before—which is basically what innovation is—people are going to misunderstand it just because it’s new.
Pastor Gregory Glover from Spokane, WA was preaching at Truth wednesday evening. He is one of my dearest longtime friends and is such a skilled and knowledgable preacher. He talked about the power of taking authority with our words and 9 people were Holy Ghosted! Here is a link to his church website. www.connectpoint.tv
It has been a while since I have stopped to share what is happening. Church is going great, we have great new people coming in and over 100 people in Home Bible Studies right now! We really are moving to the next level in bible studies after we started combining studies into groups. I am thankful for the offering of $2800 we recieved to remodel our childrens church, nursery and administrative spaces. We had the idea to concrete stain our floors rather than carpet. Let me step on my soapbox. Here we go. CARPET GETS TRASHED IN A CHURCH!!! We have to live with it for 10 years and it only looks good for 6 months. We stripped floors and adhesive for 3 days in order to get ready. We also expanded Pastor Jeremy's office and are creating a bank of desks for staff and volunteers. We are also trying to alleviate the crowding in the building by opening up what used to be a library for a social

John 4:28-30
The woman then left her waterpot, went her way into the city, and said to the men, "Come, see a Man who told me all things that I ever did. Could this be the Christ?" Then they went out of the city and came to Him.
At a well, Jesus met a woman with a lurid past, a shame-filled perspective, and a searching heart.
He shared the truth of His identity with her and offered her a new and lasting hope… and she believed in Him.
My prayer has often been "Lord help me reach the American Redneck. I have now become one to reach them. This is a 180 pd wild boar I killed on a hunting trip recently. It was running right at me and I was able to prevail. Lots of pork in the freezer now! With all that camo around my girth, I resembled a mighty sequoia! This picture was taken with a camera phone and is a bit grainy buy you get the point.
I found this and thought it was good, hope it helps you with helping your friends and loved ones in time of loss.
