You Have to Listen to This


Today, I bought two CD's (I know...shocker, since I typically download from iTunes).

Tonight I listened to Kirk Franklin's "The Fight of My Life."  This is by far one of my most favorite CD's by Kirk.  If you get a chance pick it up or download some songs from iTunes.

Super Bowl XLII (42 for those of you who don't read Roman numerals)

Last night was the BIGGEST GAME of the season for Football Fanz...and unfortunately my team was not playing.  As a matter of fact, I have never ever witnessed my Detroit Lions in a Super Bowl.  I can't even remember playoffs or better yet a winning season, at least I'm loyal...maybe NEXT YEAR.
So who was I rooting for last night?  GIANTS!  Why?  I hate the Patriots!  Seriously, if their is one NFL team that I absolutely despise its them.
Well, here are some of my highlights from the game...
  • It was a close game...no blow outs~ I love this!  This proves these are the two best teams this year.
  • GIANTS scored 1st!  Yeah, it was only 3pts but they put the numbers on the board!
  • I enjoyed screaming at the tv (with pure joy) every time a Patriot went down and was hurt...Josh & David Beam thought this was a little weird but it was fun!
  • Great Defensive game!
  • I love that the game left me on the edge of my seat the entire night...I even let Cameron and Whitney convince me to stay for the entire game.
  • The Half Time show sucked! - Ever since the whole Janet Jackson & Justin Timberlake situation, the Half Time show has just been awful!  NEXT YEAR bring Britney Spears on stage that will make for a great show.
  • Obviously there were some great commercials. Here are my favorites:

Monday Morning Mind Dump

Yesterday was such a great day!
Here are just a few highlights and thoughts from the day and our services:
  • The Worship team rocked! - they really practice hard and long and are trying to improve on being excellent in all that they do!
  • We had a ton of people serving!
  • Found out that we have about 41 volunteers just in our children's ministry.
  • We had an official count close to 150 in our two services.
  • I'm looking for more volunteers in our Student Ministry.  Not a huge time commitment, but seriously the most fun you will have all week!
  • Got to talk to Ben, a new guy to our church who is already jumping in and serving, about Jamaica a bit more...He works with a few Jamaicans and are trying to get them to come to church.  By the way, Ben is from the New England area...love the accent, hate the team!
  • I miss not having student ministry but we are back in full swing next week!
Okay, that about does it for my thoughts...I'm posting a completely separate blog about my thoughts of the SuperBowl game!
