2009 Ireland Missions Trip Day 4
Another great day! Today, we drove up to Northern Ireland and spent time visiting and praying with local pastors. It was great to hear their hearts and share their burden in prayer! We were able to give one of them, a church planter, a new laptop computer. What an...
2009 Ireland Missions Trip Day 3
Today was great! We visited Monasterboice to see some of the most amazing Celtic crosses anywhere. That wasn't the highlight of the day though. The best part was going to Drogheda to lead a Furnace prayer meeting. It was so amazing! The people here are hungry for...

Inst-Ache! The Instant Mustache Spray!
One thing I love about having three boys is their instant willingness to do anything silly or disgusting. With this commercial parody we did them both! Granted, Cole didn't want to have a mustache painted on, but he was a great sport about me photoshopping him in...
Cramming Religion Down Your Throat!!
I overheard a conversation the other day between two people who grew up in Christian homes. Neither of these people are serving God today. In fact, both of them have made choices that would be deemed very un-christian. Teen pregnancy, heavy drinking, and a very...
