Do you know what it means....

The past two weeks away from school has been fantastic. I've played golf with Coach Hoffman. I've been to two Braves games. Watched a ton of baseball and basketball. But the time has come to get back on the wagon.

So I leave at 4:30 Monday morning for New Orleans. A week long workshop kicks off my Summer o' school.

Let's do this!

The importance of looking foolish

I have been re-reading through "In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day" by Mark Batterson. This morning I was reading about how Christians need to be ok with looking foolish. His argument was that many times Christians do do what God calls us to do because we are fearful that we 'll look foolish or uniformed.

The truth is that often what God calls us to do will look foolish to the world. He went through a pretty extensive list of people in the Bible who looked foolish to the people around them. He started with Moses, Sarai, Joshua, moved to Peter when he stepped out of the boat and finished with Jesus hanging on a cross.

Aren't you glad Jesus was willing to look foolish.

Golfing

Today was great day!

I spent the morning hiking at Ocmulgee park with the Kusnyer and the afternoon golfing with Coach. I'm about to eat some chicken fingers for dinner and watch the NBA playoffs.

Life is fantastic right now.

Summer Reading

Are you looking for something good to read while sitting poolside. I have just the thing for you. A Christian fiction work called " Indivisible" by Kristen Heitzmann.

This book is a story that follows the life of Police Chief Jonah Westfall. The reader follows Westfall as he seeks to solve a mystery not only in his work but also his personal. If you enjoy a psychological thriller, this is for you.

Below I have posted the necessary links for you to pick up a copy.

Monday signaled the end of my crazy semester.
I am excited for the Summer and the adventures that will surely ensue.
