Just in case everyone you know is an expert.
If you live in the midwest, you’ve probably felt the shakes a bit.

You may even hear rumors that one happened in your neighborhood/state/city/etc.

You may hear rumors that the end is coming. Maybe Pat Robertson will tell us this is God warning the “Bible Belt” that it’s sinning too much.

Just in case you’d rather do your own research, than listen to people who really like to talk…

Here’s the United States Geological (Survey? Society?)…anyway…it’s a cool site with real-time updates on earthquake activity across the globe. This link is to the map on the United States specifically. Surprise….earthquakes happen all the time, all over the place.

A survey from the Gallup people…

so…let’s see..a pat on the back because we’re doing so well….

…or a kick in the butt, because Jesus sure didn’t have very high approval ratings when He was accomplishing God’s Will.

What sacrifices have the Method-ists made to be where we are?

We’re obviously missing something….but is it the percentage of people who aren’t fans of us….or the percentage of people who like us?

I think this survey is at the same time not that important, and also pretty important.

The question is…for both….why?

Okay…so the night wasn’t a complete success.

The VBS meeting went well…very proud of my wife. I don’t always get to see the “leadership” side of her….but she’s definitely got it. Looking forward to a great VBS this summer. 🙂

Youth Group went okay, I think. A few teens we hadn’t seen in a while, and a couple new ones. Talked about Holy as it applies to buildings/places/moments, and how it changes the way we view/relate to them. Then moved to realizing we’ve each been created to be set apart for God’s use/relationship…and how that should change how we view/relate to each other and ourselves. I really got excited about it, as usual. And maybe one or two teens heard it. hehe…

Then band practice. Nothing extremely new, but we hadn’t practiced in a while…so even the newER stuff needed some work. It was fun. Someday I’ll be that 40 year old guy who pretends he’s still cool, cause he can hold a microphone well. Someday.

Then home to watch the Detroit/Nashville game 4. Sigh. We dominated almost the entire game. Shots on goal. Hits. Penalties. Puck possession. Scoring chances. But the one area we did not dominate in….the score. So it’ll take 6 games for us to win this….still possible. Hasek is good….but Osgood is our hope for the cup. Hopefully this will swing it that direction…:)
