On twitter I will share thoughts and ideas but in a more stream line way. So please keep coming back and seeing what kinda party is going on in my world. And thanks for stopping by and showing your support.

Great Message

WOW

This is one of the most moving pieces I have EVER seen. I am so thankful I turned on the TV at this moment to watch this breath taking dance. Moved me to tears. ENJOY!!!!!!!

VideoTeaching.com

This is a AWESOME thing Life Chuch is doing.

It was great to see so many churches using shared teaching this June during One Prayer. More than one million believers around the globe learned together through powerful messages about who God Is… It’s incredible to think that a message recorded in Australia can change a life in Costa Rica or that a pastor in a small American town can influence people in Ghana, Guatemala, and points in between.
Both this year and last, we heard from many churches who were trying video teaching for the first time and were amazed at the results. We’re excited about seeing shared teaching on a global scale, and are building on that momentum with the launch of VideoTeaching.com. If you haven’t heard us mention it before, VideoTeaching.com is a site where churches will be able to download high-quality video messages from gifted Christian communicators. It’s all free, and it’s launching next week!
We’re adding finishing touches to the site, uploading more messages, and getting ready to share VideoTeaching.com with the world. In the meantime, feel free to let your friends know about what’s coming. See you on the site soon!

Weekend Madness

• Friday I spent most of the day getting things in line for a graduation party for 2 guys from the funeral home. Heated up some BBQ that Chuck McLean cooked man that was some good stuff. And had to make a couple of gifts for and grads.
• Saturday I cut some grass but it was to hot so I waited till later that day. Went and picked up Laura to hang out. I did not see her Friday cause she got to go to the Taylor Swift concert. Finished cutting grass and Laura and I headed out for Chick-fil-a and Goodberrys ice cream.
• Sunday was church. Got up early to finish some items for the parents.
• Sunday 9:30 service numbers were LOW but picked back up big time for 11:00
• Chris and the band rocked it out again busting out a David Cook song for the opening.
• Scott was spot of with his talk breaking down another myth.
• Kidz Cove we are talking about FAITH. We did stuff a little different and went off script and talked about Baptism and what is was and why you did it and what it does for you. We are talking about this cause June 28 if we have any kids that want to we are doing a big KIDZ COVE BAPTISM DAY.
• Sunday afternoon was a nice lazy day around the house. I took a nap and Laura watched a movie. Laura family also came over to have dinner. I cooked some slammin BBQ chicken with stuffing and gravy. And we hung out playing punch-out on the Wii

Weekend Madness

• Friday Night I stayed home and got ready for a singing gig I had on Saturday.
• Saturday I got up early and went and loaded all the Spotlight sound stuff up and then unloaded it at Southern High School since the show is in 1 week now.
• Left there and headed to Sacred Grounds Coffee House to set up my sound system and do a little practice before the show.
• Went back to Southern cause they were having problems with the mics
• At 4:00 I finally made it back to the house to relax before the show. Looked over my words, showered and grabbed a quick power nap before heading back out.
• Showtime at Sacred Grounds and we had tons of folks come out to hear me sing. I think this was one of my favorite sets cause I got to do whatever kinda music I wanted to do. I did some Old School Pop, Country, Christan, and Jazz. Loved it can't wait to do another one.
• Saturday night I crashed hard cause I had a major headache so not much fun there.
• Sunday was church still had the headache but pushed through cause that what we have to do.
• Chris and the band lead off with some Creed and did a awesome job with that.
• Scott was in week two of our series "Remember" This week he talked about fasting. Not one of the easiest things to talk on but man he did a great job.
• Kidz Cove was rocking and rolling. We talk about how Adam and Eve should have listened to GOD and how sad he gets with us when we don't listen.
• Went home after church and grabbed and nap to try to shake this headache.
• Big Rock was Sunday night and we talked about fasting as well. We shared how fasting is more than just from food and how we should fast from anything that distracts from GOD. We had the teens write down their biggest distractions and how many times they were coming to try to fast from it this week and the we set the paper on fire to help his destroy the distraction.
• Sunday night myself and a bunch of guys from church got together and watched the UFC that come on Saturday night. MAN IT WAS AWESOME!!!!
• Little funeral work today and then some golf

'The A-Team' Cast: Then & Now

No show better encapsulates '80s action adventure TV than "The A-Team." The series, which first aired in 1983 and ran for five seasons, starred a commando fighting force out of Vietnam, "sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit." The men promptly escaped and survived in Los Angeles as underground heroes for hire, able to construct weapons from spare parts and sidestep any real physical harm amid a barrage of cartoon-like violence. The revolving door of cameo appearances by the cheesiest of '80s mega-stars, such as Hulk Hogan and Boy George, only enhanced the show's campy appeal. In honor of Mr. T's 57th birthday today, check out the members of that crack "A-Team," then and now.

Mr. T (Sgt. Bosco "B.A." Baracus): Then
Born Laurence Tureaud on May 21, 1952, he really did go by the first name "Mr.," middle name "period," and last name "T." Sylvester Stallone discovered the Army vet-turned-bouncer-turned-wrestler-turned-bodyguard to the stars (including Joe Frazier, Muhammad Ali, Steve McQueen, and Michael Jackson) on the "America's Toughest Bouncer" competition and cast him as Clubber Lang in "Rocky III." "The A-Team" was created as a vehicle for the up-and-coming actor with the trademark mohawk, gold chains, and unforgettable catch phrase, "I pity the fool" -- which ultimately went from sound bite to motivational reality show. Really. Mr. T: Now Mr. T has never found the level of success he once enjoyed on the "A-Team." When the hit show ended, he went on to star in the series "T. and T." as a former boxer who teams up with a public defender to solve crimes. The series lasted just over two seasons, and health problems since then have prevented him from taking on more time-intensive roles (he was diagnosed with T-cell lymphoma in 1995). These days he mostly sticks to starring in commercials and hawking his Mr. T Flavorwave Oven… move over George Foreman.

George Peppard (Col. John "Hannibal" Smith) "A-Team" fans might not believe this, but George Peppard was a legitimate film actor. If you've never seen the classic "Breakfast at Tiffany's" with Audrey Hepburn and George, you should check it out. But be forewarned: it's a sensitive movie – nothing blows up. Peppard spent most of his career making war movies, including "The Blue Max" and "The Bravos," before becoming a TV sensation at age 55 as the cigar-chomping leader on the "A-Team." After the series ended, Peppard made a few TV and movie appearances (his final one on an episode of "Matlock") before died in 1994.

Dwight Schultz (Capt. H.M. "Howling Mad" Murdock): Then Producers were concerned about the unbalanced character of H.M "Howling Mad" Murdock before the "A-Team" premiered, so they planned to cut the part after the first episode. But audiences took to the unpredictable pilot, and he stayed for the run of the series. Dwight Schultz: Now All you Trekkies out there will recognize Dwight Schultz as the equally quirky (but in a much more nerdy way) Lt. Reginald "Reg" Barclay from "Star Trek: The Next Generation," "Star Trek: Voyager," and the flick "Star Trek: First Contact." But these days you're more likely to just hear his voice as characters in animated series and games, including "Spider-Man: Web of Shadows," "FusionFall," and "Terminator Salvation: The Video Game."
Dirk Benedict (Lt. Templeton "Faceman" Peck): Then As an actor, you're lucky if you ever grab the brass ring and win a starring role in a hit TV series. Dirk Benedict was able to latch onto two of them: first as Lt. Starbuck on the original "Battlestar Galactica" and then as Lt. Templeton "Faceman" Peck on "The A-Team." Dirk Benedict: Now Dirk shifted gears after leaving the "Team" and played Hamlet at the Abbey Theater. Perhaps not surprisingly, the response from audiences and critics was negative, so he went back to TV roles on such shows as "The Commish" and "Walker, Texas Ranger." When an updated "Battlestar Galactica" was announced in 2004, Dirk waged a public protest, calling the new, much darker series an "un-imagining" rather than a "re-imaging." Maybe he was just upset that Lt. Starbuck had become a woman in the new "Galactica" (a character he referred to as "Stardoe"). His most high-profile role in recent years was his third-place showing on the U.K. version of "Celebrity Big Brother." He made his entrance "A-Team"-style in the signature van, theme music blaring, with a suitcase full of cigars.

The "A-Team" Van: Then The fifth member of the team, of course, is the iconic black 1983 GMC G-Series (G-15) van, belonging to "B.A." Baracus. If you have a crime-fighting team (especially one that includes a guy the size of Mr. T), some fancy-schmancy muscle car just isn’t going to cut it when you're hunting down bad guys, so B.A.'s ride had some special modifications, including a custom red rear spoiler, white bucket seats, shag carpet, sunroof, and, of course, weapon storage case. The "A-Team" Van: Now Many vans were filmed throughout the show's run, several of which were wrecked during "The A-Team's" signature stunts, which featured jumps, crashes, explosions, and gun fights. Two pristine models, used for close-ups with the cast, were kept by producer Stephen J. Cannell after the series ended; in 1992 Cannell sold one of the pair to the Cars of the Stars Museum in Keswick, England, where it's now on display.

Weekend Maddness

• Friday I worked at the funeral home all day and then headed home to work on hanging some hand towel holders Laura thought I needed in the bathroom.
• Saturday was a full day. Slept in late and then headed to play golf followed by some fishing. And I got burnt. When I left the house it was a nice overcast but by 4:00pm my arms and face were and nice beet red. (Note to self DON'T do that again)
• Sunday was church at the Creek and it was AWESOME.
• Chris and the band were solid again this week
• Scott kicked off our new talk on "Remember". It is a modern interpretation of ancient traditions. This week was Communion
• In Kidz Cove we talked about Samuel and his boss Eli and how you can learn alot from your leaders. Like how Samuel learned how to hear God speak to him from Eli.
• Big Rock was awesome as well we are doing the same talk for the teens as we are for the adults. We just make it more teen friendly or as I like to say we TEENAFA it.
• Sunday night I crashed hard after watching Dane Cooks new comedy special. That dude is INSANE
• Monday I was right back to Hall-Wynne for another start to another work week.
• And you may have seen that Laura was no where around this weekend. She left on Friday to head to D.C. to watch her best friend Emily graduate. And she will be spending most of the week chillin on the Chesapeake Bay with Emily and her family. Glad Laura could get away cause I know she needed it. I miss her so much and can't wait for her to come home.

And this week does not look like it is going to be any easier. Big things on tap this week. Working on youth room, starting on stage design for our new series in June, and working on the Father's Day Golf Tournament. Man it is going to be crazy!!!

Peace out I gotta go back to work
