As an Aggie it is not easy to genuinely root for a Longhorn. I’ve been impressed with Colt McCoy though not just for being a great quarterback, but for his boldness in talking about Christ on many occasions, here again he puts focus on God’s sovereignty even in his injury last night.

The Westminster Eagle Mascot must have stumbled upon the fountain of youth recently as he has grown much shorter. Either that, or Doug has grown a huge Eagle head.

As promised here is video of April’s rendition of Amazing Grace on the Harp. If you wait to the end you’ll also see an unknowing Zach being really sweet with Sadie.

Tuesday night February 19th Pam, Ashleigh, Joy, Zach, Beckham, Sadie, Laura and I all headed out to watch April perform at her MPE (Midwest Parent Educators for inquiring minds) Senior Showcase. April and a friend first did a violin duet performing the song Butterfly. Later she played a few songs on Harp. You did a great job April! We are all really proud of you. The video below is of the “Celtic Woman” version of Butterfly. At a later date I’ll put up video of Amazing Grace on harp.

Last week at Breakaway we studied Mark 2:13-17 where Christ dines with Levi the tax collector. We also played ultimate musical chairs with the elementary students and Chariot Races with the Junior High. Before the night began some of the guys learned you don’t have to be 7 foot to dunk.

This week we will finally have the shaving cream hair contest and study Mark 2:18-28 which covers fasting and the Sabbath. Parents, I encourage you to talk to your children about your family’s view of practicing a Sabbath rest. If you want to study it more you might look at the Westminster Confession of Faith’s section on the Sabbath. I’ve put it below (click on read the rest of this entry) along with some relevant Scripture texts for your convenience. (more…)

I’m thinking this is a new tradition. On Snow Days (days school is canceled due to snow) we meet at the hill by Lowes for sledding then head to Starbucks to hangout. The video above shows what Zach, Joey, Connor, Grant and myself did this afternoon. Next Snow day check The Graze as you are all invited and the more the merrier.

I’ve also got some video of Mrs Felich going down a hill with Niko screaming (Just to be sure it is Shari screaming, not Niko). I’ll put that up in the next day or so.
