  • EDIT ADD:

    I had lunch today with Brian, the Worship & Creative
    Arts Team Leader at my new, awesome church. It was great! He drove all the way
    up from Yorba Linda
    to APU to have lunch with me. That’s a good 45-50 min drive…and just think
    about it—it’s the Thursday before Easter, which is any church’s biggest day of
    the year. This is a HUGE church, and this super-busy guy took a good 3-4 hours
    out of his day during the busiest season of the church-year, TWO DAYS before
    Easter (they have services on Saturdays and Sundays),  to hang out with me. Incredible.

    And beyond all the things I could talk about that are really
    cool and interesting let me say this—it is hard to earn my respect—no, I take
    that back, it’s easy to earn my respect—you just have to have the right qualities…integrity,
    honesty, and sincerity (are among some of those that I look for). This guy has
    totally earned it, and deserves it.

    It is an honor to be singing and serving along people like
    Brian and my mentor and friend, Al Clifft.  Following God is hard sometimes, but it is
    also very awesome…

    I just want to say one thing:

    I'm so proud of my Univeristy/workplace. I'm an alum of APU, and now also a staff member, and I couldn't be more proud of being a part of this awesome place. If you haven't read Mike's blog yet about the Equality Ride folks that dropped by, go check it out. Thank you to the Lord for helping and guiding our leaders to make the right choices to bring Him glory, and to show the Equality Riders that not all Christians are idiots...

  • And also, thank you Lord for having a goodbye party for Darlene yesterday so Daniel and I could eat cookies. Amen.

  • Of course APU is wonderful and teaches true Christian love. They taught you and Christy didn't they?. You both showed us that when you were here. But it is great to know that there is a college that still shows by example what a Christian SHOULD look like .

  • well, I must say in your profile pic you look like a brunette Napoleon Dynamite. nice work. something to be really proud of. plus also I just read your Starbucks story and it was the first post of yours I've read in a while and I was on the edge of my seat the whole time you were telling the story. I even got excited when your co-worker punk'd you. In a wierd, blog way they punk'd me. so all that to say I totally thought you won the free coffee for life and I'm sad you didn't win. but boy what a great story that was. great story telling skills!

  • Dan! Dan! I'm your fan....

  • Read your comment on Melsmells.... you should take Mike to our opera for his birthday!  Saturday the 22nd.  You know you want to...  (-;

  • I'm glad to know all is workig out for you. I never doubt God, I may doubt myself but never God.  I know, because he has proved it to me too many times, that His perfect Will is Real : ) !!!! May God continue to Bless you and yours.
