Put Away Falsehood…

I have come across a website called www.putawayfalsehood.com.  The site researches what Barack Obama & his campaign really believes.  The site has answered some questions I have had about his campaign…it gave some honest answers on controversial issues.  Just for the record this site is a put together by a group of Christians & I love this site!

Cowboy Clark

Yesterday I took a picture of Clark…one for the ages. Hope you enjoy it!

Gregory Boyd

I read a book last year by Gregory Boyd called “A Myth Of A Christian Nation”. The central theme of the book is about the danger of mixing faith and politics. I know this can be a hot topic in our country. The election is right around the corner and I thought this would be a great video to start conversation.

CIY Move – Friday

Well, our group has been here for nearly 5 days. It’s been 5 days of great fellowship, excellent worship, interactive discipleship groups, and just plain fun. The topics each day have been: the Holy Spirit, community, boldness, & taking action.

I have personally been encouraged by the themes and the overall week. As, I look back I feel Thursday night personally made the most impact. CIY showed a documentary (the trailer is below) on the sex trade going on in southeast Asia. They have partnered with a mission called Rapha House. They help girls break free from sex trafficking. The video was moving in so many ways, I don’t know where to begin. I would encourage you to visit there site by hitting the link above. The site will give more details concerning the ministry of Rapha House.

Anyway, this has been a great week, but look forward to heading home and seeing my family. I also look forward to sharing some of the amazing and fun stories of our time here at CIY.

Thanks for all the prayers…Peace Mike

CIY-Bolivar

This week a group of our teens from Crossroads are attending CIY Move. Its been a great week and the theme Move is taken from the book of Acts. Our group has had some great discussions and fellowship. I have attached a few pictures of the group in the main session, D-gorups, & quiet time. Have a great day!

Pictures of Clark

Last week my two year old son Clark broke his leg while jumping on our trampoline.  It’s been a long week, but tonight I took some great pictures of Clark’s awesome smile.  Anyway, hope everyone is having a great week! Enjoy the pictures…Mike

Labels=Division & Christ=Unity

This is a great interview of Rob Bell. I would strongly encourage each of you to watch the clip. It’s a great example of how labels can divide the body of Christ. He talks about his church in Michigan and what unites them.

Know Sweat Wednesday, June 25

This morning we woke up, and went to breakfast. We had biscuts and gravy…YUM!!! Then we did our devotions, and headed out to our job site. Today was a long and exhausting day, especially for the girls because this was our first all-day work day. All we did was paint, that way we can work inside all day tomorrow. When we got back to campus us girls were still having a shower crisis. The water is FREEZING!!! So we borrowed someones showers. Thank you guys for all your support, and efforts to get us here. I LOVE IT!!!
