The Sermon I preach last week and I will have more soon!

(Hey the links to Sylvia's coloring page and puzzle and maze WORK NOW!!! so check them out below!!!)

Hey everyone I wanted to give yall the link to the sermon I preaching last week @ Asbury Theological Seminary:

Here is the paper (Adobe) form of the sermon...

and Here are the links to the audio of the sermon (QuickTime format):

High Quality
and
Low Quality

(the only reason you would use low quality is if you have a slow internet connection)

(for the audio you will need to scroll down to the date I preached and then you can click on a low or high quality version of the worship service that I participated in......and it would do you god to hear the entire service and not just skip to the sermon...the music guy is awesome! I hope yall enjoy it and I will be back with a larger update soon!

Thank you all for your prayers sooo much! KUTPs!!!!!

(Te Links work now!) The one about coloring pages and an awesome Sylvia Choi!!!

Sylvia Choi is one of the people who attends the first OG! She is an amazing teacher (just like the other teachers in the 1st OG) and we asked her to create some stuff for kids to do so they could join in the discussion with the adults, and these are what she came up with for the first 8 weeks of each OG!!! (she created these three pages for each of the 8 weeks, this one is just Lazarus!)

Lazarus Coloring Page
Word Puzzle
Maze


I just finished scanning all these in and had to show everyone! BTW...You will need Adobe Reader to view them and they are still decent big files, so only download them if you have high speed internet....or a very long time to wait, heh!

Bye bye have a great weekend and God bless ya! KUTPs!!!

Take care and enjoy!

Oh and the sermon I preached yesterday is coming...I just need to make a few changes to the paper form and then I will post it...and Asbury let me know that the audio for the sermon should be up soon and when that happens I will post a link to it! So you can not only read it, but hear it as well and see what the difference are from when I say it as opposed to when I type it out. (I bet I would find that interesting too) heh heh....Thanks!

(oh and thanks Kurt for your kind post/comment on the earlier post for prayer about the sermon, I do not deserve your kind words, but you have my gratitude and thanks for them!

The one about I am preaching @ Asbury Chapel tomorrow....

Well, I am sending out this plea for prayer! I have been asked (what are they thinking?) to preach in Chapel this Wednesday @ 11:00 am EST!

now most chapels I would not be bother at all by preaching in them...but this one is Asbury Seminary's Wednesday chapel. This is the chapel that I went to all the time while I was attending seminary. This is the chapel that I really did not think that anyone could preach in it unless they had written at least 6 books in total and had a "Dr." before their official name. This also is me preaching to the very professors that taught me, and even more importantly the students that are attending the seminary that I once sat where they will be sitting.

I think that Wednesday chapel is not too big of an event (not as big as Tuesday or Thursday chapels...but it is still a huge humbling experience for me to be preaching among those whom I respect so much! It is such an honor and privilege that I am still kind of floating around wondering why? (Of course I still wonder why God called me into the ministry every now and then, but I will go and live a life of sacrifice. How can I speak the life of sacrifice if I am not willing to live it!

After tomorrow, I will post the sermon like I always do for all of you to read it if you want to. Take care and God bless yall...and PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Keep Up The Prayers!!!!

The one with..."Man's summer nightmare", blossoms, and my cute wife...

Here is Tiffany doing a Lisa Lobe impersonation! heh....The glasses are Sylvia's and Tiffany tried them and I we all thought she looked a little like Lisa Lobe...so I thought I would put it up here...Besides I love my wife and think she is cute! heh!!!......

Here is a picture of the cherry blossoms right outside the Starbucks that our Organic Gathering meets at every week in Cinci. The bees were all over the place...and as soon as I got out of the car they would not let me take a picture with them, heh.... oh well......

And lastly here is the view during the summer time that I really dislike.... not that I hate urinating...but if you are a guy and you wear sandals you might know what I am talking about... Lets just say that no matter how they design a urinal I have yet to find one that does not splatter on the ground....and so when you wear sandals....yep...the sprinkle when you tinkle effect is alive and well. So, if you ever find me taking a long time in the bathroom it is probably because I am cleaning my feet as well as my hands...but at least you all know that I do clean them, heh.... beside it is just a cool photo, heh.... I wonder it this should go on my business card for Th3 Waters, ha ha ha.... just kidding! Love yall and take care! Have a wonderful day..... KUTPs!!!!

The one about Tiffany as a kid @ Christmas!

Oh man have yall got to see this! This is a picture of Tiffany when she was a little girl on the far right...with her head in her hands...this photo looks like she could be a real challenge, heh...man just look at that smile...I bet she was a handful! heh.... cute picture...and yall can't even tell where I fixed the 4 tears in the photo huh? yep...now if I just had the time to clean up all the spots...oh well, enjoy! I am sure Cody and perhaps Tiffany might like to comment on this photo, heh! Love yall and KUTPs!!!

The one about the smart (insert sarcasm here) parker.

No I know this looks like a typical internet car sale picture...but notice how it is parked.... Tiffany and I were walking away from Starbucks the other day and we noticed a car backing-up...that was normal for a parking space right?....Well this one had no driver in the seat...and the doors were locked...two other guys and holding the back of it to make sure that it did not hit the car behind it...and luckily the tire hit the curb and kept it from ramming the other car, but man oh man that was very funny! You can see the other guy taking the picture with his cell phone, heh... Oh well, I thought I would share the funny story.... Tiffany and I called the Crestview Hills Town Centre center main office and their security people took care of it after we left, heh....wow it was a fun day, heh......


here is another view...and you can see the parking space it left from in front of it, heh.... no offense Mom...but this reminds me of something you might have done when I was a kid, ha ha ha... Just kidding.....kind of.....OK really I am.....Kidding that is....sort of

The Skyline, reasons not to cut your grass, a Seder meal, and Google search added to this blog!!

Good weekend everyone! Sorry I have been so bad about blogging...I have been very busy...but very effective...so I guess it all equals out in the end...but anyway...here is a picture of my good friend Marks with Tiffany in the reflection of the Cinci skyline in the window of Barnes and Noble on the Levee......I thought it was cool that they were looking into the window when I took the shot....anyway....

here is the real view of the skyline from the outdoor terrace from Barnes and Noble...just wanted to show you what the none reflection looks like.....

And this is the view to the right off the Terrace...man it is so cool living so close to such a big city...who would have ever thunk it that a West Texas guy like me would end up in a big slick city place like this...I still can't believe it when I cross the river to go into Cinci...Unbelievable!.....

Here is Halo chewing my bottle of citrus iced tea...and Tiffany is having to put up with it, heh... it was o funny and I wish I had a video recorder for it! heh...

Here are two reason why people should never cut the grass of their front yard!!! Yep, as we head into Spring and the flowers start to bloom, I never would have guessed it...but these flowers are in the middle of our front yard...Surrounded by grass! ha ha ha....Oh well, they were great while they lasted and I just knew that the guy who moves the yard would drive right over them...and then I came home the other day to see the next picture.....

yep he cut our grass alright...but he left a little circle of over grown grass so that he would not mow down the flowers! They are both dead now..but it sure was cool while it lasted!.....

well, last Thursday night we invited the Organic Gathering over to my house to eat a almost real Seder supper...(yes yes I know we are a week early...but it was cool to have our resident Jewish expert John Choi as leading us through the meanings of a few of the Seder food stuff, and then we go to pig out...John came a little early to help cook, and he cold not resist trying on Tiffany's coat...man this picture looks like I touched it up to make john's body small and his head big...but that is just how small Tiffany's coat really is......and how big John's....uh I mean yeah look how small Tiffany's coat is, heh heh.... j/k John......

Lastly was the great meal that we all shared together! We had a great time and even though we were missing three people we still had a great time....I even went to Jungle Jim's and bought an entire leg of lamb...and cut it up into steaks and grilled it up! Man it was VERY good...and John is @ the end of the table chewing down on the lamb shank bone, heh.... It was just a blast had by all and very interesting to hear all the purposes of the foods for remembrance!

I have also added my gamer tag (it is a card that shows all of my Xbox live gamer stats on games I have played and a few other things...I just thought I would put it up there on the right side in case a few of my Xbox live friends find my little place on the web!....

and I also added a Google search to the blog....now if you remember a blog post that you want to remember and try to show other people then you can use the Google search and find the page your looking for!! woohoo.... so go do some digging and post on here if you have any favorites...so others can share your favorite blog post I have done from years past! (go ahead and leave a comment for your favorite ones....)heh....

Well, yall have a great night/week and God bless yall! KUTPs!
