• Wrapping up my vacation in Flint Michigan today. Heading back home tomorrow.
• Great visiting Lori's family, so good to spend time with her family.
• Attended my first all men's baby shower last evening. Unlike a ladies' baby shower, ours was held at a sports bar. Good Times!
• Another cold front is headed to Michigan Wednesday, I am getting out of town just in time!
• However, I must say, making s'mores around the campfire on a cool Michigan night is great.
• Here is a Fun Fact we are 192 days away from Thanksgiving, 223 days away from Christmas, and wait for it... 103 days until the college football season kicks off.

• Something to Chew on; Over the last few weeks, I have received news regarding several of my friends who are dealing with cancer. Here is a reminder for each of us to focus on as we walk the cancer path; Cancer is so limited, it cannot corrode faith, shatter hope, kill friendships, cripple love, destroy peace, silence courage, or conquer the spirit. Know this, in the end, cancer will be defeated. Revelation 21:3-4

 A Few Thoughts from an Amazing Day...

• I worshiped at Kissimmee Christian Church this morning. 
• I continue to introduce Lori to my many friends at the church. There are so many kind people at KCC.
• Once again the baptismal waters were stirred, this is always exciting to see.
• Great message by Jim from John 21. Jim is right so many churches need to cast their nets on "the other side"
• I fear too many churches are not even putting their nets in the water.
• So good to see Patrick and Stephanie highlighted in the latest issue of the Johnson Magazine. They are doing some wonderful things as school teachers.
• Lori and I are slowly converting my bachelor home into a place for a married couple.  Out with the old in with the new!
• I gave a tour of JUFL to another church this past week. It is always good to share how JUFL was founded. May the Zeal Never Cease!
• I got my eighties fix on this past Friday by seeing Berlin in concert. It is amazing how some groups can keep up the energy level 40 years later. Good Times
• I cannot go to Epcot without seeing the American Adventure. 
• I spent some time with our Summer Recruitment Team this past Saturday, praying they have a safe and successful summer recruiting high school students to JUFL.
