I haven't been blogging much lately, but have also been in the middle of the seasonal marathon, which ends early this year, due to a bizarre spring equinox and a moon phase schedule. Anyway, we're doing some new music lately in church, which led me to realize that I haven't updated our music list lately - so here's the new stuff, on top of the old stuff.NEW - Steve Fee:Glorious OneAll Because of JesusNEW - Vicky Beeching:The Wonder of the CrossGreat is Your GloryKeith Getty and Stuart Townend:The Power of the CrossIn Christ AloneBrenton Brown:Everlasting GodDave Lubben:Lay it DownRonnie Freeman:NEW…

We're sitting around the dinner table last night, discussing school, and our days, etc. Drake has been listening to his mom's rehearsal CD, and there's a song called "The Real Jesus," by downhere.

Just in time for Christmas - I'm releasing the last two seasonal programs that we've done, on CD. And they're great! Last year's Christmas program - "Do You Know Him" and this year's Palm Sunday program - "The Revelation Song," are going to be available at the welcome desk starting this Sunday.

And it is quite possibly the coolest piece of technology that I've ever had/used - and I've used some pretty cool technology.From a phone standpoint, I have improved reception in my office and home (still have the same wireless service). From a technology standpoint - it's like having my Mac on my hip. Email is seamless, safari is fast, and it connects to wi-fi networks.
