The first 25 weeks of Rewind down, and here’s the start of the next 25. Talent Quest 2010 was a huge success. Of 5 categories there were 2 wins, 1 second, and 2 honorable mentions.

Talent Quest Competition
This weekend is the annual SC Conference Talent Quest competition held in Lake City. Life-Givers Ministries is sending 16 juniors (9) and teenagers (7) to participate in 5 categories. This is huge for LGM considering that LGM didn’t have any competitors last year and 16 this year. I’m extremely excited for the performers. I remember [...]
Contemporary
The root word of contemporary is temporary. Temporary is defined as “lasting for a limited time” according to Merriam-Webster. I’m weird. Why? Because, I love change. In fact, I thrive on change. Sure, too much change is bad, but so is too little. It’s got to be “Just right” as Goldie Locks would say. Since [...]

That’s something I can get used to seeing each week. Never underestimate the power of a good conversation with good friends. It’s energizing and refreshing. Like [...]

These posts are meant to create an atmosphere for discussion in the comments section. I’ll start it off by [...]
Monday Morning Rewind #24
Here are my thoughts over the past week. I learned that I hate surprises, and boy did I get a surprise Saturday night. Bridgett and I came home to find our master bathroom and bedroom flooded due to a broken water pipe. This kept me from attending church since I had to fix it to [...]
